Thursday was home to Big East battles between Rutgers, West Virginia, & Louisville.


And it was awesome from 2004-2008. I used to travel a good bit for work, and we could always count on a decent Big East game at a bar in whatever town we were in.

And it seems like Troy has played a game every year on a weekday. I'm going to the South Alabama game next month on a Wednesday night. Most of theirs have been home games on a Friday night though. Take off work early, drive a couple hours to the game, then go spend the weekend with my family south of there and watch the big Saturday games. Never had a problem with it. But it does suck when they play on a Tuesday.

Two Thursday night games that stand out to me were when USC lost to Oregon State around 2007-2008 (I believe they may have been ranked No 1) and Florida State with Warrick Dunn losing to Virginia in the mid 90's, FSU may have been ranked No 1 as well.
