The kick-off time shouldn't matter . . . Devils are used to playing at 7:30 in Tempe. Sometimes it sucks to wait all day for your game to come on, but it's also a good way to end one's Saturday; get stuff done the rest of the day, then enjoy the game!
Tough game vs at Utah. We get behind AGAIN 0-17 this time, we will not be able to get out from this deficit unlike the other games.
Big deal on the start time. No different than the 7:30pm Az starts were accustomed to seeing.
Hate hate hate these late games. But at the very least the homers at eSECpn will be pumping the game all day to get viewers.
