NC State is playing a road game at Old Dominion in 2015 on Saturday, Sept. 19. That's not the date preferred by Old Dominion officials, according to a report from Harry Minium of The Virginian-Pilot. ODU wanted to play the game on Friday the 18th in prime time and NC State said no.
There are obvious reasons why ODU would want to make it a Friday night game--it's the program's first ever home game against an FBS program, and they could be more certain about getting national television coverage. They could make it more of an event, get that night game mojo going.
