Thank you for posting that! I have a group of 6 guys going to this game and we all booked a couple hotel rooms. This might change things now...
Minor correction though - your article says the Packers would likely play the New York Giants. It'd actually be the Philadelphia Eagles. Although I wish it would be NYG and not Vick.

On the TV side of things, this is not good for UWM & UWGB. The game is on TWC32, if it's moved to 1pm, it will not be on TV.

Then again, if the game is played at the appointed time and is cablecast on TWC 32 but goes head-to-head with the Packer game ... well, maybe Mrs. Jeter and the kids will be watching.

According to a tweet from Bill Johnson, Packers @ Eagles 3:30pm Sunday.

Just saw on Fox - Green Bay @ Philadelphia. Sunday, 3pm.
I'm guessing this means no time change? The link that led to the UWGB website says "Game time WILL be changed to 1pm should the Green Bay Packers make the playoffs"
They really should have made that an "might" and not "will." That's too bad... would have been a fun weekend if we could have gone to a bar near Lambeau to watch the game after a Panthers win.

Just saw it.
Awesome news. I can see both games.
Folks, the Green Bay trip is a very fun one ... and the teams appear to be evenly matched.

I know, but there is an NFC playoff game on Saturday and one on Sunday. UWGB must have been planning on them playing a Saturday game since they said they were going to change the game time from 7pm to 1pm to accommodate the Packers game.
I meant it's too bad that the Packers play Sunday and not Saturday because it would have been fun...

This game just became a lot bigger, considering the late victory over Detroit and domination of Butler ... chance to move to 4-2 with a couple of home games to follow the weekend after.

That's an understatement Hack.
I think this game will answer two related questions.
1. Which team are we? The team that beat Northern Iowa, SD State, Detroit, Butler and played very well in the 2nd half against Marquette? Or the team that has laid mutliple eggs?
2. Has Jeter fixed the inconsistency issues that have plagued him?
I'm not expecting us to shoot as well as we did in either the Detroit or Butler games. Who can? But, if we play inside-out with less confinement, we've now seen what this team is capable of. Yes, the shots must fall, but that starts with getting open looks.

Yes, and the home games are against UIC and Loyola.
Incredible, really, that I was thinking five days ago that this team would start the league season 1-5.
Of course, no one should know better than the Panthers to take it one game at a time.

The team is looking forward to some time off untill Saturday night. Time off? I want them preparing for GB. The worst thing we can do is get complacent.
