Sacred Heart: It's Official

Dartmouth press release (my highlighting):

HANOVER, N.H. -- Dartmouth College announced game times for all 10 of its football
contests this fall, including the five home dates beginning with the season opener
on Sept. 19 against Colgate. The first three home games will kick off at 1:30
p.m., while the final two will begin at 12:30 p.m., to allow for more daylight
as the length of the day grows shorter.

In addition, the Big Green have added an opponent for the 2010 and 2011 seasons
with Sacred Heart University. Dartmouth will host the Pioneers for the 2010 season
before playing the following season in Fairfield, Conn. Sacred Heart replaces
the University of New Hampshire on the schedule; the final two years of the contracted
series with the Wildcats have been suspended.

2009 Schedule

Sept. 26–at New Hampshire, noon
Oct. 3–Penn, 1:30 p.m.
Oct. 10–at Yale, 12:30 p.m.

Green Alert Take: Sacred Who?
Green Alert Take II: I will miss the 12:30 starts for the first three home games. Starting at 1:30 is like getting married at 6 p.m. The waiting around isn't much fun. (And if anyone thinks the extra hour will make a significant difference in the paltry student attendance, I've got a bridge they might want to take a look at.)
