Message: [QUOTE="sutomcat, post: 5200839, member: 27"] Getting very sick of all the SEC on ABC. They had 4 games on 2 Saturdays ago. It is a good league but good grief. Anyway, Florida vs Georgia is already booked for ABC on week 10 at 3:30 pm. I would hope the ACC can get one of the slots on ABC but maybe not. Here is the full slate of ACC games, all of which will be played on Saturday: [TABLE] [TR] [TD][URL='https://www.espn.com/college-football/team/_/id/150/duke-blue-devils']Duke[/URL][/TD] [TD] @ 6 [URL='https://www.espn.com/college-football/team/_/id/2390/miami-hurricanes']Miami[/URL][/TD] [TD]Hard Rock Stadium, Miami Gardens, FL[/TD] [TD][/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD][URL='https://www.espn.com/college-football/team/_/id/97/louisville-cardinals']Louisville[/URL][/TD] [TD] @ 10 [URL='https://www.espn.com/college-football/team/_/id/228/clemson-tigers']Clemson[/URL][/TD] [TD]Memorial Stadium (Clemson, SC), Clemson, SC[/TD] [TD][/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD]20 [URL='https://www.espn.com/college-football/team/_/id/221/pittsburgh-panthers']Pittsburgh[/URL][/TD] [TD] @ 21 [URL='https://www.espn.com/college-football/team/_/id/2567/smu-mustangs']SMU[/URL][/TD] [TD]Gerald J.

I am thinking this means we will likely see 2 noon games, 2 3:30 games and 2 7:30 games. The SEC games are nothing special and I don't know if any of them are ABC worthy. But the SEC gets good ratings and they will almost surely give them a second game on ABC. Probably the noon game. My guess is Vandy at Auburn. [TABLE] [TR] [TD]Vanderbilt at Auburn[/TD] [TD]SEC[/TD] [TD]ABC, ESPN Networks, SEC Network or ESPN+[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD]Ole Miss at Arkansas[/TD] [TD]SEC[/TD] [TD]ABC, ESPN Networks, SEC Network or ESPN+[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD]Texas A&M at South Carolina[/TD] [TD]SEC[/TD] [TD]ABC, ESPN Networks, SEC Network or ESPN+[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD]Kentucky at Tennessee[/TD] [TD]SEC[/TD] [TD]ABC, ESPN Networks, SEC Network or ESPN+[/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE] Thinking Duke @ Miami gets the 7:30 pm slot on ABC. That looks like the most attractive game ratings-wise. Thinking the Stanford @ NC State game is the least attractive game and is likely going to be the CW game and will have a noon kickoff. One of these SEC games will probably get the night slot on ESPN. Thinking an ACC game will be on ESPN2 at night. Probably UL @ Clemson. They like to feature the known draw on night games. I am thinking they schedule the SU and Pitt games at 3:30 pm. One goes on ESPN2 and one on ACCN. The team that wins (SU or Pitt) next week gets the ESPN 2 slot. The other gets ACCN. So I say... Stanford @ NC State noon CW I am going to be homer and say VT @ Syracuse 3:30 ESPN2 Pitt @ SMU 3:30 ACCN Duke @ Miami 7:30 ABC UL @ Clemson 7:30 ESPN2 If Pitt beats Syracuse, I think that Pitt @ SMU game has to be played at night. I guess you just switch the slots assigned to Clemson and Pitt in that case. Hard to see any situation where we get a 7:30 pm kickoff. It is a shame VT has been so disappointing this season.
