News broke this week that the Alabama Football versus Southern Miss matchup next weekend would be another noon kickoff for the Tide, and fans are not happy. Each year, it seems all of the Tide’s early season matchups are either noon or mid-afternoon games, and the September Central Alabama heat does not mess around.
Fans are tired of suffering through the hottest games of the season at the earliest times. It’s hard to complain about half-empty stands when the heat index is over 100 degrees and half the stadium is in the full sun. It makes for a miserable experience.
