Purchased two nosebleeds tickets for 80 euro each plus fees. There are decent seats going for like 350 euro a piece, thats pure madness

Not sure where in the stadium those prices represent, but 350€ is in line with tickets available through both ND and Navy. Upstairs corners were $195, sidelines around the 20s were $295.

I have not been able to buy any here in Ireland. No luck with the lottery. Hope I might find something through corporate connections but not expecting much. Really pissed.

So they haven’t announced a kickoff time yet?
It’s the only game & overseas.
They can pick any time they want & need to let people traveling know.

 

[texbender]

when have they ever cared about the fans?

The NU vs NU game last year started at 5:30 local, so 1230 ET.

Yup. Fingers crossed it isn’t the early kickoff like the last ND-Navy game in Ireland

 

[calvegas04]

Real disappointed how ND handles these oversea games

 

[arrowryan]

Personally, I would love another 9am game. Gives me the entire afternoon to watch the other games.

Hate to break it to ya, but the only other games featuring 2 FBS teams are Vandy vs Hawaii, USC vs San Jose State, and San Diego State vs Ohio

Golf it is then

The fact that ND & BC don't have a game schedule for Olympic Stadium in Rome is a travesty IMO.

its definitely going to be a 5:30pm kickoff

What makes you say that? It was 9am in 2012 the last time we played Navy in Dublin. I hope you're right, I wasn't a huge fan of the 9 am kick.

He means 5:30PM in Dublin. That translates to 12:30PM ET.

There were a bunch of other games in 2012 since that was the traditional opening week so it was kind of a lead into that day's games. Since this year is the week before, that's not an issue and can play at a more traditional time.

I understood that, I was asking becauase the 2012 wasn't at 12:30, it was 9:00 AM EST.

Gotcha that makes sense, rings a bell now. Wouldn't benefit NBC or anyone to do 9am in that case if you can get more eyes on the game at 12:30ET.

games not on NBC i thought?

Also the NW-Nebraska game last year with the evening kickoff provided a greater atmosphere and its just a more traditional slot for sporting events here. I would imagine event organizers and local businesses would prefer this kickoff time.

Wasn't too bad. Rack Em's mom had pancakes and sausage ready for me by 8:30 along with a tall 22 oz Guiness. Don't know where she gets all that energy from on 2 hours sleep.

It's a de facto home game isn't it? If it isn't NBC, that's news to me. Clash's first post in this thread also has NBC, so if not we should correct that.
