Why announce on a Friday?  That's for when you break news your trying to hide.

We're flying to Calif. for one game then back again for a home game the next night?  Brilliant.

I've got a feeling that the St. Mary's game was added late...they took it in order to get on national TV.  The team can travel home after the game and have a whole day to recover before having a game the next night.
