COOKEVILLE, Tenn. – This fall, the start times for Tennessee Tech football home games will be so consistent, you can set a clock to it. 

All five games this season at Tucker Stadium will have the exact same start time – 1:30 p.m. 

"With travel and scheduling, putting these games at 1:30 p.m. helps make our events more accessible for our fans and their families, allowing them to maximize their own schedules," said Tech Director of Athletics Mark Wilson. "As things begin to open back up, we know there are a lot more options, so we see this as an opportunity to invite our friends and the community back to Tennessee Tech and Tucker Stadium, while allowing them the flexibility to enjoy what Cookeville and the Upper Cumberland has to offer." 

Tech's home matchups include the home opener on Sept. 11 against Furman on Family Weekend, Sept. 25 against Eastern Illinois, Oct. 2 vs. Southeast Missouri, Oct. 23 vs. Virginia-Lynchburg and the Homecoming game on Nov. 13 against UT Martin. 

Schedules are subject to change and will be announced on TTUsports.com or on the Tech Athletics social media accounts.
