Pitt Kickoff Time: 7:30 pm / ACC Network

[Consigliere]

Agreed, BC being so bad might help and Pitt winning yesterday makes the game slightly more attractive for a 330 kick. Now again the question is does the Acc have only 2 Noon slots. If they do I think we may get lucky but I still fully expect a noon kick

Think the only way there is a third nooner is if it’s streaming only and there is no ACC game at 3:30. BC- UConn could be a streamer, but why would the ACCN not want content at 3:30?

Because they've already seen 2 terrible games with Syracuse and they don't need a third week in a row. The network is trying to make money by giving good entertainment on the air.
They don't want to drive people away.

Yeah, I'd think they'd want something at 3:30 versus 3 nooners and then all night games.

But couldn't the 3rd noon slot be the CW? They've had multiple games per day before. Their times are all over the place. Since they have a 6:30, then they'd only have a noon or a 3 pm if they get two spots.

Just have to hope that the noon bigger slots (the ABC/ESPN/ESPN2 slot) wants either GT-Duke or SMU-Clemson. ACC Network 7:30 would want the other. Then we get the 3:30 void.

NASCAR Infinity race at 3 PM

NASCAR Infinity race at 3 PM

If my google searching is accurate, I think this race is at 4 PM and the coverage starts at 3:30 on CW.

Which leaves a noon opening.

Or a 7pm game? Maybe?

 

[690West]

That would be nice. Fans can be lubed up at least for the pain.

We have 2 weeks to prep. This game will be within 7 points in the 4th. It’s a certainty

The university will try to avoid a night game for homecoming.

I was just thinking CW specific. They have the Wazzou at UVA game at 6:30 pm.

Do they have a choice?

If ACC Network said we want to have the game at 7:30 pm, they'll say no thank you it's homecoming?

They have made such a request before and it has been honored. No guarantee though.

So an 11:30am kickoff?

The ACC having only 2 Noon slots was a huge help I think and obviously SU's struggles the last few weeks made the game way less attractive for a Noon showcase kick. Weather is obviously a total unknown but a 730 kick, outstanding for tailgating.

Forget the upgrade to business class for a 3:30pm kickoff. We just got upgraded to first class with a 7:30pm kickoff.

58° and morning showers.

Probably chilly after sundown.

Now we just need to play like we deserve this time slot. #Puck Fitt

 

[Chip]

TIL that the ACC Network views the 3:30 kickoff as more attractive than the 7:30 kickoff.

This might be the only thing that ever gets the crowd excited for a Pitt game.
