Deion Sanders calls late start times 'stupidest thing ever'

[NT80]

Deion has made a lot of progress in improving Colorado, but sometimes he is just not in reality. 

He took a job in the Pac12 and now complains about late start times?

"Who makes these 8 o'clock games? Dumbest thing ever. Stupidest thing ever invented in life. Who wants to stay up until 8 o'clock for a darn game?" Sanders said Wednesday on "Buffs PrimeTime." "What about the East Coast -- do they even care about ratings? Is anyone watching it? What are we supposed to do with the kids all day until 8 o'clock? What are we supposed to do in the hotel?"

...and before someone rants about this not being UNT Football related...If we join the Mountain-Pac in the future we will have these 9pm CT kickoff times occasionally too.

The dude is crazy like a fox.  Here we are once again talking about him and a football team that everyone a year ago had forgotten existed.

I specifically LOVE the PAC after Dark start times.

He's going to be very disappointed when he finds Colorado competing for eyeballs with Big10 and SEC kickoffs when they're playing the Big12 again.

Crazy as a fox is right. Now I’m curious who they play and since I’ll be airborne I’ll be looking for it on the inflight Wi-Fi. 

Buffs keep surprising.

I can think of a few things in college football more stupid than 8:00 start times.

A Friday night drunk crowd in Boulder...what's there to complain about?

Ultimately, the decision of whether or not to change the start times for college football games is a complex one. There are both pros and cons to consider.

It also sucks to lose late in a game.

I stopped watching at half with Colorado up 29-0.  I thought it was over, like probably most of the country did.

Take them to Chuck E. Cheese, have a Pixar movie marathon or provide beads and string so they can make friendship bracelets for their bestie on the team.

ESPN delayed the Colorado kickoff until 8:20PM because the Memphis/Tulane game was running late.   Then the Colo game went to 2 overtimes and finished after Midnight their time, lol.
