Kickoff times for the first four games announced


The Rutgers 2pm start is a nice surprise. It's classic SU though that the 7pm start against Ohio has to be a road game. 8pm for Liberty even though its Friday is a nice touch, extra hour to tailgate albeit it will be dark as hell by that time of year. Albany start time blows, no idea why the ACC can't throw us a bone and make one of these D1AA games a night game or a 3:30 start for a change. Hell give us 12:30, something.
 
Was the Liberty game always a Friday night game? We have two home Friday night games?

Average sunset time for late September in Syracuse is around 7 p.m. It'll be dark by kickoff, but not like it would be for an 8 p.m. tip off in January.

Yeah not a perfect schedule but I'm happy for the most part with these times, I do wish the Ohio game was Friday night.
 
Wish they could have made that Clemson game an 8pm Friday night game tho.
 
Who you kidding, you would watch if it was scheduled for Noon or 1:30 in the morning.

Liberty has been a Friday game for a long time. I think from the day they announced dates for the games.

I believe there is some clause in the agreement that the ACC reached when SU was added where I believe at least one of Syracuse and BC have to host a home game on a Friday night every season.

The ACC needs to provide a certain number of Friday night games to meet its obligations to ESPN/ABC.

That means we are going to have at least one Friday night home game just about every season.
