I’d just be worried there may not be many better options.

My son begged me to take him to the game tomorrow. How could I say no? Now we’re going to a game that won’t be over

Good dad.

who among you, if his son asks him for bread, will give him a stone?

Yep. The 8:15 start times suuuuck if you don't live in Utah County.

Kinda sucks even if you do live in UT Co.

Yeah, midnight is late to finish a game even for locals. We live in Davis County

We're in trouble if this one goes past midnight. I'm not counting on a 2OT game. hahaha

When BYU scores 50, it'll end late

I think the 6 or 7 start times are better, but my wife prefers evening/ night

Ya, 6 or 7 is great in September. 8:20, not so much.

Mot

Way too late. Night games should start around 6 or so, maybe 7 at the latest.

Spring for a hotel. Make it a memorable weekend.

Not a bad idea if you live as far away as Logan. Sleep in on Sunday. Take him

You made the right choice. If you’re son begs to do something with you…

Right? Shocking.

Where the game still starts at 8:22 and it will be colder?

BYU Fan

Or an earlier start time.

I actually had the same concern. Then I saw Utah Tech kicks at 1:30pm

CrackerJack

Now that I double check, Wyoming may be the last 8:15 start this year

“Let’s do another weekend *also*”. Fixed it for you. You’re welcome.

The drive to Davis County is brutal

Small price to pay for a memory that your son will never forget!!

Hopefully it’s over by halftime and you can leave/drive and listen to the rest
