The Stanford schedules for many sports  get updated each year to my I phone. Today up pops San Diego at 2 on Monday. 
Can’t find it elsewhere.  I would presume Heidi

The Pac-12 updated on line schedule indicates U of San Diego for Monday, Nov 30th, 2 pm.  Live Stream.

why on earth would you schedule a game for 2pm on a monday that's not a holiday - unless the tv gods force the odd slot? am i missing something? i can't remember that happening before.

Probably because the San Diego students will only miss one school day (Monday) since they can travel home after the game. Possible they simply couldn't get the team up to Palo Alto by Saturday to play on Sunday as scheduled vs. Pacific.

My view is we're lucky to have games at all given these conditions, so I'll take it and be grateful.

well, sure, but i have to work monday at 2; and there's no way to tape the game. conceivable that at least a few other fans work as well.

The time may be to get the appropriate testing done, with the results back in time to decide about travel, plus getting the flight here (plus perhaps approval to take a flight).    For a 2PM Monday game, the PCR tests have to be taken AFTER 2PM Saturday, and then be back before the game (and, presumably, before gathering for the flight).   The recommendation is to travel by motor vehicles when possible, but it is a long drive.  I can imagine that they are taking an early (8AM-10AM) flight from San Diego, rather than Sunday afternoon and having to stay in a hotel.

To make a Sunday 2PM game would have required testing after Friday 2PM.  But maybe they couldn't line up testing with results back quickly enough.
