Question Any guesses for 2008 kick-off date

Working on the TBD calendar dates for next year. The date for the Championship is published for the next two years on the Georgia Dome calendar of events. One can also guestimate regional dates based upon historical data.

My guess for kick-off is January 5th which puts ship date as February 19th. This would then make the first round of regionals starting on February 28th in a leap year. The following would be the remaining regional weeks March 6th, March 13th, March 20th, & March 27th.

April 16th - 19th Championship as listed on Georgia Dome Calendar

Exactly. Being that they announced the Hawaii regional would be Week 5 and March 27-29, I just worked backwards from there.

Re: Any guesses for 2008 kick-off date

Oh gosh. Another 2:00 am meet time at the classroom to watch the regional. We always watch it live to maximize planing time, and being in hawaii we are quite a few hours behind.

Re: Any guesses for 2008 kick-off date

I'd like kick-off to be on my b-day (Jan 15), but that wouldn't work with week 5 of regionals being March 27.

At least I won't spend my birthday being driven insane by game hints
