Per the Charleston Daily Mail: http://www.dailymail.com/Sports/201104050953
THE SIXTH - and perhaps second to last - Coal Bowl may not be played on a Saturday, as previously announced on West Virginia and Marshall football schedules.
The Sept. 3 date at Mountaineer Field is now one of two first-week Big East home games listed on the conference schedule as "date subject to change." The other movable game is Wake Forest at Syracuse.
ESPN has not announced a Thursday or Friday game for that opening week, and since it's a week before the NFL is scheduled to open - even if the lockout ends with a labor settlement - the possibility of a Sunday afternoon or night Coal Bowl also exists on Labor Day weekend. "It's been informally discussed, but nothing has happened (to move the date)," said WVU Deputy Athletic Director Mike Parsons, who handles scheduling for the Mountaineer program. "It's a possibility, but there's nothing yet."
