Message: [QUOTE="Stern, post: 1607308, member: 527"] It's because ONE network (ESPN) has all of the games and they can't play every game at once. They need to stagger the start times. And with the Rose Bowl's time "locked in stone" everything revolves around the Rose Bowl on New Years Day. The days of playing these big games on multiple days can't be done this year because of where New Years Day falls in conjunction with the NFL schedule. The New Years Eve playoff games is a nightmare for the network and a mistake everyone involved wish they addressed from the beginning and changed somehow. I would bet a large some of money you never see it like this again with playoff games on New Years Eve and trying to cram 3 major bowl games like this on New Years Day [/QUOTE]
