Two LA Tech Football Games Moved to Friday - latechsports.com

[RGTech98]

Friday night means I’m out. Not using a day of vacation time and driving 300+ miles one way to watch what we are putting on the field offensively right now.

Offensive being the key word...

Why would you go to a high school game instead of the LA Tech conference opener? I know you're a fan of West Monroe, but you don't have kids playing there do you?

Yes. Thanks for asking. He'll be a senior.

To me, (especially since I live in Shreveport) Thursday/Friday games are not a big deal. Tuesday/Wednesday games are the what we didn't want to get into.
It looks like C-USA's new deal (started last year) with CBSSN calls for 3 Friday night games per year. The MAC plays most of November on Tuesday-Thursday

UL-L has a home game on a Wednesday in October

Most conference play on Thursday/Friday, including the P5 -

ACC, Pac 12, Big 10, Big 12

The SEC is the only conference that plays all games on Saturday (except Labor Day & Thanksgiving weekends)

So where are we likely to be playing on these Friday nights? Facebook?

[Dawgpix]

Day changes are mainly for CBSSN I'd say.

all Friday C-USA home games last year were on CBS Sports Network. That should be the assumed landing spot.

Is that worth it? I don't have cable - is that going to be as good as ESPN? Or I guess FS1? Or have we made this deal for "national" coverage on a channel nobody has or looks at? I really don't know.

It's bad, but ahead of MavTV. Still erked that fs1 had the announcers in LA when we played WKU. @WKU

I think you can debate a weeknight game when you're getting paid well for your overall package (like the P5 conferences) or really broad exposure (main channel ESPN, maybe ESPN2 or FS1). But my understanding is that our tv deal isn't great on cash (theoretically in exchange for coverage/control).

So what do we think? Is this worth what we're getting out of it? Not just us I guess, the whole conference? I saw a tweet that our coach doesn't like it.

If I was the coach I wouldn’t like it either. Most of your recruits will not see it because they are playing games. CUSA leadership is as bad as Tech’s.

Btw, LSU basically shit cans their AD today. That’s pretty ironic when you compare Alleva to Tommy boy. Mediocrity is who we are.

Allllllright, T-Mo!!!! That's awesome. I had no idea you had a kid playing there. He's a good player too. A pass catching fullback that can RUN and BLOCK!! Congratulations!!

Let's hope T-Mac is a leading candidate for the LSU job.

LSU got the A&M AD. He’s an LSU grad I think.
