Saturday Game Time?

[jncuse]

When is the East Regional Final on Saturday? Has that been determined or could it still be one of two times?

I am sure this has been mentioned in other threads but I could not find it when I scanned the thread titles.

Thanks.

My guess is late afternoon (like 5:00) seeing the west region is the other game on and will be after our game.

The West and East p lay tomorrow so the East would be the earlier game on Saturday. I'd guess around 7 again

CBS won't announce it until they know what the matchups are---they want the better game late (primetime). The two slots are 4:20pm and approx 6:50pm. So if Syracuse and Ohio State both were to win, I can almost guarantee that would be the later, primetime game. (jdubs30--the East/West thing doesn't matter---it's all about the rating$$$)

i believe the slots are 420 and 620 not 320

Doubt they'd put the West game at 1:20 out there.

Thanks.

I wasn't sure if the policy for determining game times only after matchups are known, applied to regional finals as well.

I think 4:20 is a good omen for this team

I don't understand the point of this, as it doesn't tell you anything---the question we are discussing is first game or second game. This doesn't specify regions at all.

To answer your other post:

"Doubt they'd put the West game at 1:20 out there."​

​

Of course they would---a) it's all about the TV ratings, and b) even if it wasn't, what's the difference between 1:20 and 3:40 out west anyway? Both are in the middle of the afternoon!​

No one knows what time the game will be; but now we know that the first game is 4:20 and the 2nd game will probably be 6:50.

4:20 and 7:05 probably

personally, I think it is very bad mojo to worry about times for a Saturday game before you have played the Thursday game.

That's why I asked when the East Regional final would be played.

 

[moqui]

That's why I asked when the East Regional would be played rather then if any certain team would play.

the basketball gods are even more likely to be angered if you think they are that stupid

he didn't ask what time would Syracuse would be playing. He asked the game times.

Arizona is on Mountain time now, so it would be 2:20 out in Phoenix. They started the storz/Bama regional final out there around that time in 2004.

I hope it's at 4:20... I have a Jason Aldean concert (not by choice) at 7:30. Need to leave by 6:30.

 

[BayonneOrange]

I have Allman Brothers at the Beacon Theatre tickets for Saturday night. Might be selling those seats!!

 

[Cuseregular]

Stubhub lists the game as a 1pm start FWIW. Hopefully the worth is zero.

CBS has the Division 2 finals at 1 PM on Saturday.

You sure you bought the right tickets?

actually didn't get them through Stubhub. Went through the university when I saw it listed as 1 pm there not wanting to deal with trying to scalp on a potential time crunch if it was accurate. Sounds like it wasn't thankfully

LMAO! This board would speculate whether the sun will come up tomorrow.
