TV assigns Auburn-Mississippi State morning kickoff

AUBURN, Alabama - Set your alarm clocks. Television networks are beginning to line up behind Auburn, and, so far, there are some early games.
At least two of Auburn's first three games will kick off in the morning, or will in the Auburn time zone.
Mississippi State Athletics Director Scott Stricklin tweeted today that the Bulldogs' game at Auburn on Sept. 10 has been set for an 11:21 a.m. on the SEC Network. Stricklin then thanked Auburn, in a tweet, for agreeing to an early start because the Bulldogs have a Thursday night game against LSU the following week.
ABC announced earlier that the Sept. 17 game at Clemson will kick off at 11 a.m., Auburn time.
A few more TV times could be announced later today by the SEC, so check back after 1.
So the defending National Champions will face the darkhorse everyone's predicting to contend for the West, or at least outshine Auburn, in the first SEC matchup of the season, and they're relegating it to the 11:21 timeslot on the SEC Network (formerly known as Lincoln Financial)?
And because the visiting team requested this to the TV Networks because of a Thursday game with LSU the next week?

Shitty home schedule gets shittier. Super.

Aaand, they just assinged the season opener...to 11am. :facepalm:
So the first three games are 11am kickoffs. :suicide:

AUBURN, Alabama - Better finish your breakfast early this football season. Auburn's first three games will kick off in the morning, at least in the Auburn time zone, and it's all going to start with an 11 a.m. season-opener against Utah State.
The SEC announced start times for Auburn's first two games today, and that goes with what we already knew about Game 3. Here you go...
**Sept. 3 vs. Utah State at home, 11 a.m. on either ESPN or ESPN2
**Sept. 10 vs. Mississippi State at home, 11:21 a.m. on the SEC Network
**Sept. 17 vs. Clemson on the road, 11 a.m. Central time, on ABC
The early start to the season-opening game may be a rude awakening for some, but the decision by ESPN to televise it gives the Tigers national exposure right off the bat. Otherwise, the game would have been destined for a regional broadcast on another network.
TV will snap up the rest of the games later.
As we wrote earlier, Mississippi State Athletics Director Scott Stricklin thanked Auburn, in a tweet, for agreeing to an early start because the Bulldogs have a Thursday night game against LSU the following week.

And since I missed this thread the first time around, fuck MSU and their thank you tweet.

Oh yeah...11am-3pm in September. I hope you like sweat and heat stroke.

Aaaannd I imagine the 1:00 p.m. temperature should have cooled down to a comfortable 99 degrees on those days too.
-
For those that can't make it to the games (you spoiled punks) I am just glad they are on TV.
Will we still be on TV when the hammer falls?

Supposed to be 103 here today but I ain't goin' out there to find out. Honestly, I've never seen it hit 103 here. It does hit the 100 mark a few times every summer but this whole week and into next week all looks like 101...102...99...101.....

And I still went fishing on Memorial Day. With my 5 year old. Because I'm insane and a bad father.
We made memories dammit! "Honey remember when you got heatstroke? No?"

Besides if you want to feel bad for someone feel bad for nookie, dude has to get up at 7am to watch games now.
Beer and lucky charms just isn't as good as beer and a burger.

Trying to get all the national exposure possible before the mid-season shoe drops.
I'm going to start hydrating now in preparation for the opener. Fuck.

I always hear people...you don't know hot, it got up to 108 in the shade where we live ...it may be 112 there but we've got the humidity....
Fuck!!! You!!! I don't care where you are. When it tops 100 degrees, it's damn hot. Your ass can die in that stuff...quick.

"Yeah, but it's a dry heat." Your bones will be more brittle when your flesh peels off making the burn worse, madafucka.

I was going to try and make this one in C town. Not so sure now. It would require a hotel stay now. Not sure if that game is worth that to me.
