We Interrupt This Wedding Blog For An Important Football Announcement

For everyone who is upset with me for, you know, that whole "Never get married on a football weekend - unless you are me" thing, I do have one bit of good news, at least for those guests who support the athletic departments from the Universities of Texas and Arkansas.

Part of the Texas TV schedule was announced today, and the Texas-Arkansas game that coincides with our wedding weekend has been set for a 3:30 ET kickoff.

Our nuptials are scheduled to begin around 8:15, so even allowing for several overtimes (unlikely to happen - Arkansas lost their top offensive weapons in Darren McFadden and Felix Jones and didn't have a passing game to begin with, plus they'll have an entirely new system with Bobby Petrino replacing Houston Nutt at the top), the game should still be over no later than 7:30. Plenty of time to get down to the cocktail hour and grab a bite, no sweat!

Now if only they don't have regional coverage that weekend...
