11 am, definitely, especially for two CST schools. But that's on Fox Sports, not MU.

Exactly.  At least pick an EST game for that slot.

MU had a similar situation on New Year’s Day in 2011 (which was a Saturday as well) against West Virginia. That one started at 10:00 AM!! Streets were empty with virtually no traffic that morning.  Was a good win for MU that day with a nice performance from Jae Crowder in his first BE game.

We went a stretch where we played BE games at home on January 1 three consecutive years.  The one you mention was the first, and the only with a pre-noon tip.

This was the last.

Bucks were at 5:30pm at FF on NYD. MU had to play at 11am.

About 10,000 people made it through the early alarm (and the gun shots & car-jackings and the communist mask policy) on Jan 1 to enjoy a Double OT Big East game.  And while 10K is low for MU, that's a really good crowd for a lot of Power 5 teams and at 11am on NYD, that's a good NBA crowd.

Fox Sports pays us a lot of money and that affords us private jets, unlimited recruiting budgets, constantly upgraded facilities.  For those of us who made it out, I know we all enjoyed a fun game and even better post game.  Buck Bradley's was festive and packed.  By 3pm it had the feeling of good old fashion mid February Saturday.

We're never going to fix TV, might as well order a Bloody Mary and enjoy it.

The 2/2 game is a 900 pm tip?

Yes, according to gomarquette.com (and verified on the Villanova website)

The gametime had been TBA since the schedule was announced.  Just happen to be looking at the schedule today and noticed that the time had been set.

The original Big East schedule in September said 7 or 8pm. 9pm. Holy crap!

That's pretty much a guarantee of weak ratings. It'll end around 11 pm for most MU fans, and midnight for most Nova fans. Stupid.

It should be a solid lead in on FS1. US vs Honduras for WCQ match. Yet, 9pm still blows.

I bought the $20 tickets before seeing that ( I don’t know when it was changed). Not sure if we will go, that’s a late night for driving back to Chicago.

At least we don't have to worry about the game before going long and delaying the tip.  Soccer games (that aren't knockout stage games in tournaments) are always done under two hours from the opening kick.

As long as 7 CST or earlier is the opening kick and not the start of a half hour of pregame chatter and analysis.

#MUBB upset #11 Villanova last night for their fifth straight BIG EAST Conference win! So when we win, you win!
 
Starting at 10:00 AM CT Thursday, January 20, all available tickets for remaining #MUBB games are ONLY $20 for 5 hours (some exclusions apply and the offer does not include February 26 vs. Butler)!
 
Don't miss out on any of the action the rest of the season at Fiserv Forum!

For those trying to get X tickets for Sunday, I had no luck on Fevo, but after 10 minutes on hold w/the ticket office, all is well.  Got my three, sec 114.  Try that if the promotional site is giving you fits.

Side note.  Judging by the guy's tone at the sales office, there's just a teeeeny bit of pent-up demand for a winner.  Nice problem to have.
