The past few years, in my weekly ACC TV guide posts, I've included a hypothetical "if there was an ACCN schedule." In many weeks, I listed a quadruple-header with start times of 11, 2:15, 5:30, and 8:45.
With ESPN losing half the Big Ten to FOX, you are going to see more ACC games on other ESPN networks. For example, in Week 1, Purdue, NW, and Iowa all play cupcakes on ESPNU or ESPNews. Some of those games would end up on FS1 or FS2 in the future which would make room for ESPNU to pick up Pitt vs Nova for example.
With the announcement of a 40 game ACCN football schedule, it certainly looks like there will be triple headers most weeks.
So my question is, what game time slots would you favor:
Noon, 3:30, 7:00
Noon, 4, 8
12:30, 4:00, 7:30
12:30, 4:15, 8
1:00, 4:30, 8
1, 4:45, 8:30
My opinion is that too many games around the country start at noon and 3:30 so I would want to stagger them a bit.
