      Minnesota OSU is a primetime BTN game. Exact time of kick TBD, but I'd bet on 8 PM. Less likely is something like 5 or 6 PM local.

          That's a Thursday evening game, immediately prior to Labor Day weekend. The only other B1G game that night is Indiana @ Florida International. If BTN is looking to do a doubleheader, I've got to believe that Oregon State @ Minnesota is the featured game. B1G vs. Pac12 match-up and all.

          Another factor: Claiming that 5PM on a Thursday is "primetime" would be pretty brazen, even by the standards of sports broadcasting.

              7-10 pm is considered prime time in the Central/Mountain time zones. If the game goes into that slot it can be considered "pt".
              A bad cause requires many words.

                Agreed, but it would depend on the other game.

                On the primetime bit, yeah, now that I think about it, that would be 3 PM Pacific. That wouldn't fly. I'm guessing it would have to be 7 PM or 8 PM. I'd prefer 8 PM Central, I think. THe next morning will blow, but getting home from work and getting down to the game will be much easier. Trying to drive in or out of downtown in rush hour is terrible.

                          http://www.baylor.edu/rtsv/doc.php/266596.pdf

                          Baylor failed to take appropriate action to respond to reports of sexual assault and dating violence reportedly committed by football players. The choices made by football staff and athletics leadership, in some instances, posed a risk to campus safety and the integrity of the University. In certain instances, including reports of a sexual assault by multiple football players, athletics and football personnel affirmatively chose not to report sexual violence and dating violence to an appropriate administrator outside of athletics. In those instances, football coaches or staff met directly with a complainant and/or a parent of a complainant and did not report the misconduct. As a result, no action was taken to support complainants, fairly and impartially evaluate the conduct under Title IX, address identified cultural concerns within the football program, or protect campus safety once aware of a potential pattern of sexual violence by multiple football players.

                          In addition, some football coaches and staff took improper steps in response to disclosures of sexual assault or dating violence that precluded the University from fulfilling its legal obligations. Football staff conducted their own untrained internal inquiries, outside of policy, which improperly discredited complainants and denied them the right to a fair, impartial and informed investigation, interim measures or processes promised under University policy. In some cases, internal steps gave the illusion of responsiveness to complainants but failed to provide a meaningful institutional response under Title IX. Further, because reports were not shared outside of athletics, the University missed critical opportunities to impose appropriate disciplinary action that would have removed offenders from campus and possibly precluded future acts of sexual violence against Baylor students. In some instances, the football program dismissed players for unspecified team violations and assisted them in transferring to other schools. As a result, some football coaches and staff abdicated responsibilities under Title IX and Clery; to student welfare; to the health and safety of complainants; and to Baylor’s institutional values.

                          In addition to the failures related to sexual assault and dating violence, individuals within the football program actively sought to maintain internal control over discipline for other forms of misconduct. Athletics personnel failed to recognize the conflict of interest in roles and risk to campus safety by insulating athletes from student conduct processes. Football coaches and staff took affirmative steps to maintain internal control over discipline of players and to actively divert cases from the student conduct or criminal processes. In some cases, football coaches and staff had inappropriate involvement in disciplinary and criminal matters or engaged in improper conduct that reinforced an overall perception that football was above the rules, and that there was no culture of accountability for misconduct.
                          Welp.

                            Given what happened at Penn State, they should only lose a few scholarships for a few years.

                            That's all they got, and that was against kids, and not adult women. Not excusing what happened in Baylor- disgusting. But that's how I see a worse situation handled. Fans sure forgot it.

                                I wonder if they "reassign" rather than "fire" to try to seal the administration off from law suits. If you fire Starr you're admitting at least loss of institutional control and it could be construed as far worse. It's going to be Litigant Armageddon down there, but Baylor probably has enough clout with pols, prosecutors, the public, and judges to squirm out relatively unharmed unless they shoot themselves with some sort of tacit admission of culpability. I mean, it's only rape -- red states classify that as a parking violation.

                                Any lawyers wanna comment (if you're even allowed to)?
