Noon is good. I'm hoping to go, so that means I get to make it back home early instead of crawling into bed after midnite. (Which I may still do, but I'll be celebrating!)

Q "Why do you like Duke, you didn't even go there." A "Because my art school didn't have a basketball team."
So we're up to 5 Nationally televised games for Duke Football, and probably 6 (Duke-UNC).
Amazing.
<devildeac> anyone playing drinking games by now?
7:49:36<Wander> drink every qb run?
7:49:38<loran16> umm, drink every time asack rushes?
7:49:38<wolfybeard> @devildeac: drink when Asack runs a keeper
7:49:39 PM<CB&B> any time zack runs, drink
Carolina Delenda Est
Same here. Earlier is better. I was hoping for 12:30, which would have meant the ACC Network, but noon on ESPN2 is even better.
Let's hope there's better weather than last year's game in W-S. But the same end result!
I'll add that I hope the UNCheat game is at 3:30 or 7PM. The drive from MSG and the basketball NIT would be a little tight with a noon game. I did it four years ago, but the football game was in WW, which is a heck of a lot easier to get to than the middle of Chapel Hill. I'll have to add another half hour to the trip for their bus shuttle.
The good: Duke gets a national game even against a non-bowl bound Wake team.
The bad: The ACC gets cleared out of the way for the real games in the real time slots on the real networks.
The weauf: UNC complains about 12:30 starts on the ACC network keeping attendance low--gets a NOON game on the regional Fox network.
