Baylor Game Time??

by fromcentex on Nov 2, 2009 9:56 PM CST

Anyone got a clue what time the Baylor game will start? I know it has not officially been announced, but someone has to have a clue if it will be a day or night game. I hate to support the idea of Tech selling a home game to Jerry Jones, but I am looking forward to seing the new stadium.

OK I have nothing else, but it will not let me submit this unless I have 75 words. Am I doing something wrong?

I think

it may also come down to whether or not the game is on television and that does not get decided until the game is a bit closer, usually a couple of weeks out.

We won't know

until two weeks before the game when TV picks the games they want. Unless ABC uses a 6 day option, then we won’t know until 6 days before the game.

Also, Baylor sold this home game to Jerry, not TTU. TTU sold next years home game to the State Fair.

Last I checked

it was sold out as far as the TTU and public allotments. However, Baylor was still selling tickets on their site. I’m guessing that this means the game will be sold out. My fear is that the t-shirt fans will not show. I’l be upset if thousands of tickets go unused.

I think...

this game would already be sold out if Baylor hadn’t had lost Griffin. In either case I do think Tech will mass most of the crowd even on their side as well. Hopefully we go into this game with something to gain. I personally can’t wait to see the new stadium. That in itself makes it worth going to.

I’ll be there no matter the start time. I’m excited to go this year as well as next year in the Cotton Bowl. Possible games at SMU & TCU in 2010 or 2011 will be nice as well. I like the regional schedule against FBS teams. Let’s keep it near our recruiting base.

You really think it would have sold out? Tech can’t sell 60,000 at home. Baylor cant sell 35,000 at home. Honestly i think 50000 would be a good crowd

Can't sell 60k at home?

6.5 million people in DFW not counting easy driving distance. UT/AM are within 3 hours of 20+ million people. No doubt we’d sell plenty home tix if not 6-8 hours from population base.

BTW. Got my tix in mail today. Finally. BU just got them from Jerry last Friday.

I had to buy my tickets on StubHub (I hope they are real) at 2x face value and I am not even sitting in the Tech section. That was back in October after Tech got its last allotment (which sold out in a few hours). Ticketmaster had nothing. Baylor still had seats. I wouldn’t be surprised if they left some sections empty, but the seating charts look like there are single seats in just about every section. Therefore, I think it is safe to assume that every section was available and sold.

BTW- I might make it to Lubbock once a year and I save that for basketball since they need fan support so badly. I don’t see Tech play unless they come to Dallas. After last season, I’m thinking that there are a lot of people like me plus a load of t-shit fans that bought before the UofH game.

I’ll see 3 games in person this year. Go to OSU every year home or away because it’s a in-law tradition, always go to at least one home game, always go when in Dallas. I don’t feel guilty about only one home game, it’s just time and money. When I can afford a twin engine, and make the trip in 1.5 hours, we will see them all.
