Have our TV draws been that bad to justify this?

Any wagers if the VT game will make it 5 in a row?
If we keep on winning, I'll happily take that time again;).

No worries folks, if I recall correctly the Orange Bowl should be on nationally and at a prime viewing time ;) I will be there to tailgate and cause other ruckus.

Given that we have a hoop game at 8pm I would think Duke would prefer noonish...(parking, etc)
I know TV has the final say; I have wondered if Duke has any input....some tell me we have zero, I would think we'd at least request noon (in this case).
A 3:30 game (or 7pm) would pose some logistical problems for a system that often struggles with the basics (to be kind).

Even disregarding our game that evening, I like the early time. Less competition for eyeballs, plus I don't see the attraction of a Saturday night game anyway (don't young folks tend to do other things on Saturday nights?).
Most importantly, it lets me get in a good mood earlier in the day!

I keep complaining about our time slots and others post that it's no big deal.
Still, Louisville-BC in prime time? No. 24 Duke in another nooner.
It will be interesting to see the Duke-Va Tech time ... with the home basketball game that night.
But the Duke-Syracuse game also creates a conflict -- Duke has a basketball exhibition at 1 p.m. I know the football game is on the road, but now it's the same time as the basketball exhibition. So, if you are a Duke fan, do you want to stay home and see the Duke football team play the 'Cuse or come to Cameron and watch a basketball exhibition?
Any chance to change the BB exhibition to night to help Blue Devil fans out?

Geez, can't believe this is actually a difficult decision for many Duke fans. Exhibition basketball or a (hopefully) 7-1 and ranked Duke football game. We talkin' bout practice, man!

we play the heels the Thursday after the VT game, so the earlier the better AFAIAC.

Wait. I thought you always spelled concerned with a "K."
;)
(OPK and I may be the only ones who remember this one:o;).)

Funny, I typed it that way this time too! Caught it before hitting the submit reply button though.
AFAIK and AFAIAC are probably too close to be useful acronyms. JM(H?)O,
I'll be in Syracuse at the football game.
Ditto. Earlier is better. (Same for this week's Pitt game. Allows me to drive back to Durham after the game and save a night's hotel bill.)
