Public service, in case you were waiting for this.

"The Atlantic Coast Conference Monday announced that ESPN has declared a six-day option for the games of Oct. 22. The five games held have possible kickoff times of Noon, 12:30 p.m. or 3:30 p.m. and will be broadcast over either ABC, ESPN, ESPN2, ESPNU or the ACC Network.

The network and gametime decisions will be announced no later than noon on Sunday, Oct. 16.

The ACC did announce the game time for Boston College at Virginia Tech, which will be televised by the Regional Sports Networks and will have a 3 p.m. kickoff.

Saturday, Oct. 22
Boston College at Virginia Tech, RSN, 3 p.m.
North Carolina at Clemson, TBD (six-day hold)
Wake Forest at Duke, TBD (six-day hold)
Maryland at Florida State, TBD (six-day hold)
Georgia Tech at Miami, TBD (six-day hold)
NC State at Virginia, TBD (six-day hold)"

Just goes to show how much power the TV networks have. Not that we didn't already know that.

Probably waiting a week to see if the Duke-Wake Forest matchup will be a potential preview of the ACC Championship Game.

Probably.

Undoubtedly it's all about which teams will get the most viewers. The downside is that people who go in person to see the games are held hostage while the TV folk seek the highest dollars.

Yea, that's the ticket.

Actually, they are probably waiting to assess the impact of whether folks will choose to attend the devildeac game at WW at noon or 1230 PM or will opt to skip the game if it's a 300 or 330 PM KO and attend devildeac's older daughter's wedding at 5PM that day instead (jk).
