NU officially announced yesterday that the Wrigley game will start at  
2:30 (instead of 11:00).  Although this should help boost attendance,  
the game will now be televised on ESPNU (instead of ESPN or ESPN2).   
So we won't get the same level of TV exposure out of the deal.  I  
think Jim Phillips might be getting a little concerned about selling  
enough tickets to the game, so they're happy to do whatever it will  
take to increase attendance even if it means less TV exposure.
