Guess I won't plan to get a hotel just yet.


NORMAN, Okla. -- It's another wait and see for an Oklahoma football starting time.

ABC has chosen its third and final six-day selection for the 2006 season. That means Sooner fans will not know until Saturday or Sunday the starting time for the final home game of the season, the Nov. 11 clash with Texas Tech.

The game has three potential starting times at this point. If ABC selects the game, it will begin at either 2:30 p.m., or 7 p.m. If ABC passes on the game, it will be picked up by FSN, which will show it at 6 p.m.

ABC will choose between the OU/Tech game and the Texas A&M/Nebraska game. Whichever game is not selected by ABC will go to FSN.

The starting time for this week's Oklahoma game at Texas A&M was similarly announced a little over one week ago. Big 12 officials contacted OU Athletics Director Joe Castiglione Saturday night to let the school know that the game was slotted for 7 p.m.

Yeah, I'd prefer any one of these times over an early game. I've got a buddy from Arkansas that's a Tech fan and he'll be coming in for the game to, so I'm trying to plan around the kickoff as much as possible.

I'm hoping for 6p.m. Hunting in South Dakota and would hate to miss the game.

Could be worse...some of us are trapped on the West Coast. Which means ABC out here is carrying Cal vs. UCLA this Saturday while most of the country gets OU-A&M.

Let's hold off on this until it happens. It will happen, but let's just wait to complain until after it happens :texan:

It better not be 2:30. Damned music competition in Stillwater that day - I won't be able to get out of Stillwater until about 2:30.
