2-3 home night games/year is fine. Having ALL of them in the evening stinks

I agree with you. IMO night games are FAR better than afternoon games.

Those of us with a 4-hour drive would like them to start just a little bit earlier.

No football game in Provo in August or September should start before 7pm
