I would agree with that.  I think people are still interested in Christian from last year and might tune into his first game of the year for that reason.  It's a 9pm Eastern kickoff on a Friday night, which isn't ideal, but at the same time, it's the only game of note in that timeslot. (Apologies to the Rocky Mountain Showdown between Colorado and Colorado State, but random columnists from small SEC towns aren't tuning into your game.)  Perhaps with it being the first week of the season, more college football writers will treat it as a national holiday and stay up late.  But if they don't last the whole game, here's hoping Christian blows the doors off K-State by halftime so everyone can go to bed early.
