Colleges Do Wrong Thing ... Fight for Friday Night Lights
Should major colleges play football games on Friday nights?
A Division I-A (old name) school recently announced that they will play a game next season on Friday night?
:rep: :rep: :rep: to the member who names the two schools, the date, the time, the location and the network that will televise it.
Dustin is not eligible to answer this question until one hour passes.

You can answer or discuss the question under the subject, but maybe you should be looking for the other answer on the Internet.

You are certainly correct.
This time the schools sought and received the blessing of the state's high schools before agreeing to move their game for TV.
Should they play games on Friday nights?
Do you know the answer to the :rep: question now, Dustin?

NO....I think its busch! The NFL has agreed to not compete with college football, so, in turn, college football should agree not to compete with high school football!

Maybe the colleges should give the high schools a share of their gate. :)
Hell, why not make the colleges draft high schoolers and pay the high schools for developing their talent. :mad:
And signing bonus should be paid to the kids. :mad:
I'm not kidding. :mad:
And the pros should pay the colleges for developing their talent. :mad:
Boy, I'm glad I got that off my chest. :crazy:

I don't feel like researching who it was, but didn't Toledo play a Friday night game last year? I think I recall hearing it on the radio while driving home and they were commenting how everybody was at the high school games instead....

It is two teams in the southwest. Each school has had a football player elected to the U.S. Congress. One played in the NFL.

That is true. I'm waiting. Do you have some more in formation.
One of the former congressman is black.
Largent was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1997. He graduated from my high school, Putnam City High School. He was too small for OU or OSU. Its too bad schools cannot measure a player's heart.

Fine....everyone else has had plenty of time.
Tulsa plays OU on the Deuce on a Friday night in September.

Expect further handicaps, Mr. Dustin.
