Clemson TV: Noon / ABC

It's a noon slot for only one reason and that's viewership. This game will pull 4+ million and that's all Disney cares about...

TV networks do have a nasty habit of looking to increase viewership

Yeah, this is a great slot to be in. Big viewership, marquee opponent (even if they are down a bit this year, no offense) and we're at home. These are the games that if we do well in, get our guys awards, get us votes in the polls and get us media coverage.

Colorado is in the same slot, kicking off at 10am local and that game is huge as well.

Syracuse football is not a religion. I get that a noon start may be depress the total attendance a bit, but the tv contracts drive the bus. It's not like the game is starting at 9am or anything.

I think it's still the noon slot regardless of record.
