So the game at State on Saturday is at 8 pm. Guess it was moved from original 2 start time?
We're now fully into conference play - this week will be the last detailed conference-by-conference breakdown of our conference non-conference record (trust me, that makes sense). There are some high quality matchups this week - Florida State, in particular, has to run an early season gauntlet - as teams start to get an early chance to separate from the pack. Lots of close games marked the opening weekend, after which we now have 6 ACC teams ranked (Duke, UVA, UNC, Miami, FSU, and Clemson) and a total of 8 that have been ranked (add Louisville and Notre Dame).

You see those guys? Animals. They're animals. - SIU Coach Chris Lowery, on Duke
So the game at State on Saturday is at 8 pm. Guess it was moved from original 2 start time?
Good, a week to work on defense.
Let's root for a good bounce-back game for those spunky Noles
Wish the game was at 2 pm and not at 8. Not sure why ESPN would want to put the game against NFL playoffs.
I'm reading on Twitter that Bonzie Colson is going to be out eight weeks with a foot fracture. I'm sorry for him and Notre Dame. I'd have to guess that Bagley doesn't have that much competition now for ACC player of the year.

I wonder if the weather will affect any of the games tonight? I haven't heard anything definitive yet, but with such a wide path of winter weather throughout the south(which is generally unprepared to handle winter weather)you gotta think some games might get cancelled/postponed.
