Mimosas and bloody mary's it is

Going to call my shot here… I think we still have a chance at college gameday (deja vu x3 I know). But looking at the lines for this week, I think there’s a very good chance Clemson upsets Florida state which will catapult them back into the rankings. Plus since Clemson has already played UNC and they play FSU this week (which many thought would be gameday preseason), why not us?

They have not played UNC. They lost to Duke.

I guess looking at what we had to choose from network wise, I’ll take it. Never were in discussion for ABC at night.

If anyone has a line on a cargo/passenger van to use that day please let me know. I really need one, or something like it, and I don't want to pay $200 for an extra day from Hertz now that we would have to pick it up on Friday night instead of Saturday morning.

 

[llandz]

Killer again for west coast. No game watches that day. Too early.

 

[Newhouser]

So noon is now the second best time slot in the world of TV networks?

 

[BigNastyJon]

Hoping for Nooner or 7:30, as I have *gasps* a wedding that day.

I’m going to be mess by the time this 5 o’clock wedding starts

 

[shandeezy7]

Oof Friday night wedding to 8 a.m. tailgate. Good luck to me and my liver.

I could be wrong but isn't Uhaul $20 per day?

So we get 5 pm for Colgate and 3:30 for western Michigan yet now being 3-0 we get nooners for Army and Clemson. I know we aren’t the only game of the week but make it make sense

 

[JeremyCuse]

Ugh wish I had been wrong but this screamed Nooner

 

[JeremyCuse]

It's different from a decade ago. TV wants its best games at 7-8 with the 2nd best at Noon. SUs a victim of its own success unfortunately.

20 Nd like 50cents a mile. way cheaper than a van

 

[zjscuse]

That is so lame I was hoping for a 7 pm game so we could get some serious tailgating in. The opener against Louisville last year was drunk and wild .

 

[PhatOrange]

Ugh that sux.

 

[OrangeXtreme]

A noon game on National TV beats a 4 PM game on the internet.

 

[LeMoyneCuse]

Noon on ABC is high praise, even if it's not the best for tailgating.

The answer is the noon slot is not the GROB era noon slot. Even though we hate it, it’s seen as a big time slot. Noon on ABC

 

[Newhouser]

It's different from a decade ago. TV wants its best games at 7-8 with the 2nd best at Noon. SUs a victim of its own success unfortunately.

Why is that though? Obviously there is data that supports that but if I was watching on TV I'd want my morning and some part of the afternoon to get stuff done.

And Clemson's name still draws.

These games have almost always been competitive, so this isn't surprising.

If Fox didn't get the Big 10, none of this would be happening.

Fox decided to disrupt and put marquee games in the noon slot, so ESPN/ABC can't use it as filler any more.

The data must suggest that TV audiences don't want part of their afternoon to get stuff done.

 

[Eric15]

I won't be surprised at all if Clemson beats FSU at home this weekend.

Yup 100%

Yup. 2.5 point spread. Might as well flip A coin
