Nebraska vs Colorado starts at 10 AM local time.

Check the ratings for the FOX game last week. It was among the highest all weekend, and pretty sure THE highest of the noon time slot.
 
I think it is silly and FOX should have swapped this game with Iowa/Iowa St (which at least is central time zone and they are used to 11 AM starts) but they want to keep the biggest game in the noon slot so...
 
A 10am start is ridiculous. They should have had an eastern game on ant noon and put Colorado vs Nebraska at 3:30pm (1:30 Boulder time).
 
Regardless of the start time, Colorado is going to be a ratings machine this year! It’s amazing to me that in the last year of the PAC12, there is the most excitement in the conference in quite some time.

Yeah totally stupid and unnecessary but Fox loves the nooner and it blinds them to practicality.

It's all Prime although they have to do well. Ratings won't be so hot if they are 3-5 headed to November.

Unless they lose.

The networks would start a game at 4:00 Am if they thought it would draw big ratings. Sadly most schools and conferences would gladly oblige them.
 
Prime is kinda like Howard Stern. Those who dislike him are probably watching a game they typically might not just to see him fail or at least see how it goes.

Although at 1-11, I think the network will stop booking them for the good slots around loss 5 or 6.
Not if people are watching which they still might be.
 
Colorado and Nebraska both desperately need national attention. Are we really pretending a 10 am start is that big of a deal? It's not ideal but when rebuilding you take what you can get?
