Kirk has said he is good if it is Labor Day weekend or Black Friday for home games on a Friday, otherwise they have stated they need to be on the road. Due to parking issues and staff (hospital and school) needs on non-holiday Fridays. They have stated they are good with Fridays on the road if needed. They have done so against Minnesota and Maryland so far.Beth Goetz (probably): "I demand that Iowa be excluded. Thank you."

Those days are gone. About the $s now.Friday night games only work when I have something going on Saturday. But on principle, I don't like it. Friday nights are for high school kids.
Yeah, well, I can bitch about how Friday nights are for kids to the cloud in my backyard.Those days are gone. About the $s now.
I went to a CUSA game at Sam Houston State on a Wednesday,I'm sure TV will find ways to get games every night of the week. Sucks,but thats the reality.
Pretty much what I was thinking... Not only would the games overlap, but they want to have every game viewable. There's only so many channels and streaming services to accommodate this, though I suppose a streaming service like Peacock could in theory stream more than one game at a time. But Fox, BTN, FS1, CBS, Peacock, NBC, Paramount +, when you have 18 teams awfully hard to play as many as 18 games without a lot of overlap.With the B1G going to 18 teams, will be harder and harder to squeeze all the games in over the weekend without a ton of overlap. Makes sense to have a Friday night game (as well as a 10 PM EST game) almost every week. I know a lot of people have a problem with Friday night games, but they're not going anywhere, so you might as well embrace it.
Like the Maryland game?it's only a matter of time until the hawks get a Friday night game
piss on Friday night games. Stupid. Another failure of Big Ten leadership along with 9 conference games.Beth Goetz (probably): "I demand that Iowa be excluded. Thank you."

Having a game on the Friday of Labor Day weekend would be the least objectionable to me. We are all ready for football to get underway, and the weather is sometimes brutally hot in the afternoon for the first game.Kirk has stated he is open to the first weekend (Labor Day weekend) being a Friday game for a home game, but none others if at home in Iowa City, other than the holiday Black Friday game. He said too much conflict with the university and hospital staffing for Fridays at home otherwise. Stated AD and U Prez in agreement with that. If on the road it doesn't matter.

Dammit, I'm starting to think we will never get 6am kickoffs on Saturday.
With 18 teams, won’t there be just 9 games (at most) each week? 😜Pretty much what I was thinking... Not only would the games overlap, but they want to have every game viewable.

not in the non conferenceWith 18 teams, won’t there be just 9 games (at most) each week? 😜
I think we are a ways away from home Fri night games for Iowa. Will be a lot of hosting by Minnesota, Northwestern, Indiana, Maryland and Rutgers for the foreseeable future.I drive 3.5 hours to go to games so I wouldn't be jazzed about Friday night games for the most part. I could possibly cut out early. But I'd be driving tired and then I'd be locked into getting a hotel room somewhere.

There's a reason they're labeled SCUM. They consider themselves smarter and better than everyone else in the conferenceMichigan has stated no Fridays at home or on the road. We will see if TV changes their demand.
With the Nfl it allready does, Maybe not so much in September but when MACTION starts they play on Tuesdays and Wednesdays.I'm sure TV will find ways to get games every night of the week. Sucks,but thats the reality.
