Q "Why do you like Duke, you didn't even go there." A "Because my art school didn't have a basketball team."
Don't worry, I'm sure we'll get the 7:30 kickoff for the Thanksgiving weekend game .
Silver lining is that the game will be on ACCN and not Bally.

We get the two division leaders the next two weeks.
What an opportunity!
Neither Pitt nor Duke are TV draws. VT is not a TV draw this year. We got the noon ACCN network spot because we're getting the RSN 12:30 spot next week.
I’d rather have a noon kickoff for a November game than a 7:30 one. I expect to have many layers on for the Louisville game. (I don’t like the cold!)
[slightly off topic, but relevant to Pitt football in the recent past]
I did see that former Pitt kicker Chris Blewitt got signed by the Washington Football Team who released their veteran kicker and that reminded me of his 26-yard miss against Duke for the win...Better times in the past...
And, of course, his first kick in the NFL was blocked. I honestly didn't realize he was that quality of a kicker to be able to make an NFL roster. I guess this was his first "official" kick since 2016...
Blewitt and Pickett, Pitt gets all the name guys.
Kicker "Blewitt" is even worse than kicker "Blair Walsh."
Pretty obscure to non-Seahawks or Vikings fans.
The punchline is the Seahawks picked him up next season.
I think my favorite sports name to date is Wake Forest's Gelo Orange (AKA Orange, Gelo).
I edited the title so this can be the game discussion thread. No sense in generating a new thread.
