NC State Kickoff: 3:30 ACCN

[FRANKIEFAN]

Great time slot.

We have plenty more big games to get more national exposure.

 

[Reyes39]

dvr?? Make sure you don't hear anything about the game.

Might be the way I'll have to go. I really live for the game day experience and atmosphere though.

 

[Reyes39]

Tell her you guys should arm wrestle for it.

If I'm being forced to go to this wedding with my tail between my legs, what makes you think I can beat her in an arm wrestling match?

 

[JKinPhilly]

Selfishly I was hoping for a primetime time spot because:
1) I'm 2 hours behind living in the Mountain Time zone, and
2) I'm taking the in-laws to Yellowstone that weekend and this is right smack in the middle of the day for that. Thank goodness for XM radio

I would destroy my wife in an arm wrestling match, and she knows it.

If only that was the deciding factor.

It's like when two lions try to outroar each other, and one backs down out of fear. That's where I am.

 

[storange]

Great , get the hype machine in full gear. It’s go time !!!!

 

[Newhouser]

Perhaps. However, I doubt it has much (if anything) to do with the "unfortunate circumstance" of only 4 conference games as it does with ESPN choosing/preferring to go with other games it viewed as more attractive. My understanding is that ESPN has first dibs, etc. and simply deferred here. The ACCN chooses after ESPN makes its decision.

I agree - I just think the powers that be at the four letter don't see the ACC or any school outside of Clemson, FSU and UNC as legit draw in football.

UNC ??? Not aware they are big football draw. Hoops of course.

We better not get the C team of commentary again. I can't take it anymore

If you're talking about the team that did our UConn game that was a CBS Sportsnetwork team. BTW, Uconn had the same team this last weekend. She hasn't gotten any better.

 

[TexanMark]

We drew 1.1 M for the UVA Friday night slot which was pretty good.

I was hoping for at least ESPN2 for some ratings.

If Clemson wins this weekend I expect the 3:30 ABC window for Oct 22nd

AND THERE'S A TIMEOUT ON THE FLOOR!

 

[djorange1989]

3:30pm CBS: Alabama at Tennessee
3:30pm ABC or ESPN: Oklahoma State at TCU
3:30pm ABC or ESPN: Arkansas at BYU
3:30pm ESPN2: Maryland at Indiana
3:30pm ACCN: NC State at Syracuse
3:30pm SECN: Vanderbilt at Georgia
4:00pm FOX: Wisconsin at Michigan St

Maryland at Indiana? Really ESPN?

 

[storange]

I don’t have the data but it seems that the ACC network gets a bigger game in their triple header on Saturdays from time to time. Most are bottom rung , but from time to time .

Honestly almost every game this year, tbh. The bootleg Gus Johnson that did the Purdue game was one of the worst

Agree. zzzzzzzzzz

 

[texascpa]

I was at the game and when reading the postgame discussion, I saw that comparison. Thought "clearly they're overreacting". Nope, definitely a GJ wannabe.

Yup. There's a whole thread on the boneyard discussing how bad she is along with Fauria. That duo is a disaster!

 

[FloridaFan]

I mean the ACCN also wants to have good games on it. A top 25 matchup will bring eyeballs to it and the ACCN wants those. Give the ACCN only bad games and watch the money drain away

 

[texascpa]

I actually think Fauria is okay, but she is horrible. Compare her to the female PBP that did our game against Wagner. Our PBP was miles ahead of that her. Still mixing in basketball references and still refusing to give yardage or down and distance.

Wes will be doing that game, and expect the ACC network will have the huddle and/or pm crews there

 

[Chip]

Maryland at Indiana? Really ESPN?

Given the shortage of ACC inventory this week, does ACCN get priority to show content on their network?

 

[rrlbees]

Wes will be doing that game, and expect the ACC network will have the huddle and/or pm crews there

Yep. This will be Wes Durham.

 

[FrancoPizza]

Yep. This will be Wes Durham.

Any relation to the Purdue tight end that ran his mouth?

I don't think so, I thought ABC/ESPN gets first dibs.
