If the rest of this season plays out like many of us are believing it will, and we look even stronger on paper next year, and after the wars we’ve played with them the last two years...that could be the most hyped home football game since...1998 or so?

I’m dreaming of big things ahead right now.
 
Really hope Wildhack can pull strings at his old job to get it on a Friday night again.

Hope we don't price it too high that will make a big difference.

maybe SU finishes the season so strong they put SU/Clemson as the opening weekend prime time game on Sunday/Monday night of labor day weekend.
 
clemson is clearly our best home game next year with the home slate scheduled as :

9/21 western michigan
9/28 holy cross
acc games:
Bc
Clemson
Wake
Pitt
 
Depends on how they finish this season and start next year.
 
The other crossover game is @Duke. Forgot SU opens with 2 straight on the road next season (Liberty, Maryland). Nice job Herm.

Friday nignt will mean we stumbled to the finish line this year. We want to be good enough that it's considered an ABC primetime game.

I’m all in. I’m anticipating a lot of W’s before the next Clemson game.

Yeah but you don't know what other games will be that weekend. Aside from the fact that losses could occur for both teams prior to our meeting dropping down the coverage if its the same weekend as something like OSU-PSU you aren't getting the ABC primetime slot pretty much no matter what. Friday might not have the prestige but its worth it to be guaranteed a night game.

The assumption is Clemson will be Clemson. If you're hoping for a Friday night game, your saying you hope we suck. When is the last time a top 5 team played a top 25 team on Friday night?

Don't get me wrong, personally I like Friday games. I don't live in Syracuse so can't attend games or tailgate. Watching a game on Friday night after work and then having the whole weekend to do family stuff is perfect. But us playing Clemson on a Friday night means it's not a desirable matchup, which means we stunk it up to finish this season. I don't want that.

From what I understand, the Liberty game wasn't a 'Herm' thing. After getting the 2 for 1 with them, we asked for the roadie in 2019 to accommodate potential Dome renovations.

Herm is one of his agenda topics. I have the same understanding.
