Could Ohio legislator’s new bill give college football fans more tailgate time?


An Ohio state legislator has reportedly drafted a bill that would make it illegal for colleges to host football games before 3:30 p.m., except for special circumstances.

Republican state Rep. Tex Fischer is looking to ban the earlier kickoffs particularly because Ohio State is frequently booked on Fox’s “Big Noon Saturday.”

‘I said it would be a crime for FOX to put Ohio State vs Texas at noon. Promises made, promises kept!’

The bill, shared by Fischer through an account called the Rooster, explained that “no college football game” in Ohio would start before 3:30 p.m. unless one team is from a state university and both teams are ranked in the top 10 of the Associated Press poll.
