When they heard “night game” for Saturday against Kansas, TCU players Desmon White and Ben Banogu didn’t think of what it meant for themselves.
They thought about their fans.
“They would rather sit in a 7 o’clock game than a 2:30 game,” White said.
That’s probably accurate. The student section and most seating areas at Amon G. Carter Stadium baked in the sun for 2:30 starts against SMU and West Virginia. Many of the fans braved the heat, but after halftime, it’s hard to convince everyone to return from the shade of the concourse or suites.
