Just turned on the TV at 1:30 am PST and am shocked to see the Oklahoma State is beating Tulsa 59-33. It is 3:30 am in Tulsa. The TV announcers are complaining about each penalty call and timeout, which prolong the agony of watching the game at this ridiculous hour. I realize that there was a time delay because of a storm. But is it legal to play a college game in the really early morning?

Lord, that's just WRONG. Even a scheduled 9:10pm start was bad enough, but that was ridiculous.

Just found this story on the game and the strange start time. I had no idea that the NCAA prohibits games starting between midnight and 5 am. Maybe we should schedule intersectional games with East Coast teams and move the start times to 11 pm (2 am EST) for "TV coverage" reasons. :p Was anyone else watching the game?
