For at Tulane game in 2012 .
I think the army game at Yankee stadium in 2011.
It’s the best music in sports . CBS even plays it for uconn football games!
RU-Northwestern - noon on Sunday (yes, Sunday) Sept. 3 on CBS
- Thread starter Local Shill
- Start date

Nationally televised opportunity for Rutgers to embarrass itself? I know how this ends up.
LOL a "Prosecutor"? I'll bet she can free up some time. Especially if the honorable wife works in NJ.
Would be a low turnout no matter when they scheduled it. I consider myself a pretty dedicated in person fan and I'll be watching on TV at the house in the mountains. Football takes up a bunch of beautiful fall weekends we could be there.
A game date was never announced dude. The game is 3 months away, There are always going to be specific dates that are more convenient for some people than others and vice versus. It’s simply not the case that a Sunday game is less convenient than a Saturday game (generally speaking) due to more people having work conflicts. That was the only point here. Of course the announced date isn’t going to work for every single Rutgers fan.
Both those games were on CBS College Sports Network. This will be the first time at least in my memory Rutgers is on the CBS OTA channel.
Nothing like getting a sunstroke on Labor Day weekend ......
Because the sun always burns hotter and brighter on Sundays than on Saturdays?
In the B1G, noon is prime time. I thought we all knew and accepted that.

I never accepted the Noon Prime Time nonsense especially in the boiling heat. A night game is more prime time just as the SEC relishes. Plus the Sunday Noon game conflicts with the Sunday Mets - Mariners / Jared Kelenic return series. No conflict with Mets if game was at Saturday at noon.
There's 162 baseball games. Assuming you're a bigger Rutgers fan than Mets fan, this shouldn't even be a discussion.
Most schools will be open and you will get mail. That's not a 3 day weekend for most people.

I can't see more than 30k in the house
Literally the worst day/time we could have hoped for
Have to hope we go out there and take it to them, put up some points and win in impressive fashion
If so, the momentum and excitement from week 1 could spill over into week 2, with a night game and the students fired up from week 1. Casual fans could take notice and we get a decent walk up crowd
Now week 3 is where it gets interesting, especially if we win both games and are impressive in doing so. VT, brand name, 33:30 start... I'd have to imagine the place will be rocking from the jump
Quite possibly are biggest / loudest home game since OSU a few years ago

Or you understand what last channel recall does. The games are not mutually exclusive.
Guess I'll be watching at the bar in downtown Orlando. Rocking Rutgers gear head to toe, go back to hotel and change, head to the nightcap
Looks like a long day of football and drinking in the Magic City

A nooner when I was in Vegas was a *****. At least nearly all bars are open all day.
I usually just operate on east coast time when there anyway. Actual time of day really doesn't matter.
Yeah after the Saturday night festivities, I imagine it'll be tough to regroup that early
O starts lighting it up early with a couple TD's and hopefully I'll perk up lol
I’ll take the over (On the 30k). We had a sellout on 9/4/2021 (Labor day weekend Saturday noon game) against Temple. Now, there was a lot of hype as we were coming back from a year off (COVID), but we always draw well for our first game. Somehow we got somewhere near 50,000 on a noon game on a holiday weekend game……and yes, we had people complain about the day and time of the game back then because it messed up their holiday weekend.
Post office is closed federal holiday .
It’s a holiday and long weekend . Enjoy it
I hope I’m wrong and we get 50k
Although that year was an anomaly coming off Covid, GS coming back, more hype to the program and the game being on a Saturday versus a Sunday
Still think we should try to lock down one of the night spots on Thursday or Friday like Minnesota has appeared to do
It's a federal holiday no mail. Banks and brokerages closed. Paid day off as I work for brokerage.
Nobody is going to be outside at noon that day except fans at the game.
Everyone else in the state will be safely inside apparently hiding from the sun.
Jared Kelenic? That's appointment tv?
People reacted like the Mets traded Mike Trout.
How many fans are skipping the Rutgers game to attend the Mets game?
Also, Saturday at noon is still "boiling heat". Should be Sat night.
But then that also conflicts with seeing the fabled Kelenic!!!
****. Rutgers should just cancel the game outright. Nobody would be able to attend any time.
Whata crock- Game day and time and broadcast channel on Labor Day weekend is completely irrelevant. Whatever the date/time is selected ,RU fans will whine and gripe and find everything wrong with it. Whatever the date/ time is selected for game time, RU fans won't show up. B1G 10 schedulers have it easy when it comes to Rutgers- it doesn't matter.
To be fair, this is the first year CFB has started on Labor Day weekend. Fans are caught off guard and unprepared.
Very few on the East Coast will be interested either; all interested people will be in the stadium.
hard to be the war before the shore if it's on Sunday! More like a sunburn recovery event.Hope they do the boats and hoes thing again.
