Auburn Fans Disprove 11 AM Myth

Props to you Auburn fans.

There are only a few kickoff times for teams around SEC country. In the central time zone, teams play at 11, 2:30 or 3, 6 or 6:30. Every once in a while, a team will kick off at a time when typically only the West Coast is still playing football (Mississippi State opened their season with a 9:00 kickoff against in-state foe Southern Miss).

When game times are announced, there is only one time that fans dread. Actually, that isn’t true. Many fans hate the 2:30 game. That has more to do with having to listen to Gary and Verne on CBS, though, than anything about the kickoff time having a potential impact on the game.
