I saw that Doogie tweeted the ratings were high, but I didn't realize there was THIS much national interest!

On Tuesday, ESPN PR announced on Twitter that the game was the most-watched noon telecast on ABC in nearly three seasons.
Putting Penn State-Minnesota on at noon for ABC seemed to do wonders. We’re likely to see more of these “bigger” games on at noon due to the success they’ve had.
 

Can somebody clever tell me what our Wisconsin kick-off time either will be or will NOT be?
 






What were the other noon ABC games this year and last?

I think Michigan-Ohio St is usually a noon eastern kickoff, right? So better ratings than that game alone is very impressive.
 






I'm looking at flights for the game.

I can get in at 11:30am on that Saturday

OR

I can take the red eye.

You can see my dilemma!
 




Previous games this year:

Michigan-Maryland
Oklahoma-Kansas St
Clemson-Louisville
Michigan-Illinois
Oklahoma-Kansas
NW-Wisconsin
Michigan St-NW
Pitt-Penn St
Cinci-Ohio St
Ole Miss-Memphis
 

Wisconsin-Penn St was in this time slot on ABC last year. Texas-Oklahoma Big 12 Championship was at noon eastern as well.

You're going to want to play it safe and get in early...even if the game is at 3 you will have a whole morning to tailgate if you're already here.
