Stanford tight end Sam Roush runs on the field during the first half of an NCAA football game against Syracuse on Friday, Sept. 20, 2024 in Syracuse, N.Y. Stanford tight end Sam Roush was in a team meeting on Tuesday when the topic of the Cardinal’s 9 a.m. Pacific Time kickoff on Saturday came up.“We’re not too worried about the early start time,” Roush said. “I mean, it’s football. We’re going to wake up and play ball. That’s kind of the attitude we’ve got.
Stanford coach Troy Taylor said it will be the earliest start time of his coaching career. He’s encouraging players to go to sleep by 9 p.m. this week, and the team planned to travel to North Carolina on Thursday to give players more time to acclimate. They will also do most of their pregame work on Friday evening so the players can sleep in as late as possible on Saturday morning.
Taylor was more concerned with another scheduling quirk: N.C. State is one of five opponents who will be coming off a bye before games against the Cardinal . In two of those cases , Stanford shares a bye week with its opponent, but in three cases it does not. “That was kind of disappointing to see the schedule laid out that way,” Taylor said. “Obviously playing is a challenge as well, but honestly the byes for three opponents before you is, to me, more concerning.”
