Yup.  The B1G took the money with a big smile and an open palm-- these are the consequences.
Not consequences, a feature.

Well I certainly don't mind having a late night Friday game to watch.

But it's not my team playing...

I more meant for people who make decisions.

then again, more than 58% of my regular season games as a five-year undergrad were at 11 AM. So that wasn’t exactly peaches and cream.

I loved the early kickoffs.  We generally didn't go out Friday nights before home games, but were up and going by 6 am.  Game ended around 3:30, 2 hour power nap, then go hard again.

I never personally disliked the 11 AM kickoffs.  But the charitable tailgate party definitely brought in a LOT less money for an early kick, than it did for a 2:30 or 7 PM kick.

In Indiana we were eastern time, so it was always noon for home games. Kegs out on Slayter Hill by about 8:30, piss drunk by kickoff, back to Slayter a few more beers after the game (or earlier if we were getting housed), then back to the fraternity house to pass out for a few before parties kicked off again Saturday night. 

It's a wonder I survived college...

I never drank before games, so a late start was a loooong day. 11AM was perfect. Get to the parking lot at 5:30, set up, cook breakfast, and poof. Time to walk to Camp Randall and watch football. Back to the tailgate, start drinking, watch the PM games and cook linner. Perfect day.

I look back at my ability to be drunk at three in the morning for like a week straight, and it just blows my mind. I literally tried to pack so much into my last week as a student that I physically could not speak for one of the days, which made it very weird to have family in town.

Yes. I was only able to see one game in college - 1992 OSU. I worked in Illinois every weekend other than that one game. I rarely drank while in college. No time for that. I've made up for it.

Edit: I graduated at age 27. I was an adult in Madison the whole time. Part of it included being with my bitch first wife...

I always assumed that was because you were some kind of runner for the mob and thus had to work weekends.
