    Does anyone else find 11 AM on a Saturday a strange start time for a game? That's the start time for the UConn-Notre Dame game.

    tv. they have one every week now. there was one last week as well. they started doing it in the past few years. it's way too early to start a game. i never even liked the noon start times.

    but what's the advantage for tv showing a game at 11 in the morning? i don't get that.

    one more live game that day instead of a another rerun of sportscenter. if i'm home i'll turn it on.

    i know the hawks played temple at 11:00 am a few years ago. was brutal going to the Palestra for an 11:00 am game.

    Nothing like waking up at 10:45 and having coffee and a bagel while watching UConn.

    well they are coming along too....it's still nice gain at least one perennial power after losing 3.

    i still would like to see nova bumped up to football and have temple added for all sports eventually.

    Pitino with the white suit last night, not a good choice for someone who likes Italian food so much, oh wait Slick Rick doesn't like the traditional Italian fare. Could have used them beating Cuse in the battle of 2/3 of biggest scumbag coaches in the Big East, with Calhoun being the other.

    Can you ask him to change his last name? Every time I hear it, I throw up a little in my mouth. :evil: :lol:
