What time u think the UCF game will start on 9/21? It's gonna be on one of the ESPN channels (including possibly ACCN early game). Still tba, but what it usually for this type of OOC game?
POLL: What time will the UCF game start?

- Start date
Yeah, I mean using history as my guide, I would have to make a noon start the strong favorite.
I would love to see someone make a t-shirt in the script Pitt that just reads Noon.
I was just invited to the Oct. 26 Ohio State vs. Wisconsin game, which I’d love to attend. However, Pitt plays Miami the same day and I’m not missing that game. However, given that we play at noon every single week and Ohio State is seemingly always on ABC primetime, I think there’s a decent chance I could make both games.

Rule of thumb is always plan for noon for a Pitt home game. Pitt has lead the country in noon home kicks over the last, I dont know, 5-6 years. This is partly due to the Pirates making us kickoff at noon when they are home. That said, the Pirates are away that night, so we can technically start later than noon so, yep, still probably noon even if it makes ESPN2 or ESPNU.
If Pitt beats either UVa or PSU and the game is somehow not at noon, I'd guess it would be at 5 or 8 on ACCN. These would be my TV predictions for that day if Pitt is 2-1 or 3-0.
ACCN
11:00 - Central Michigan at Miami
2:00 - Old Dominion at Virginia
5:00 - UCF at Pitt
8:00 - Charlotte at Clemson
Raycom via Fox Sports South
12:30 - App St at UNC
ESPN, ESPN2, or ABC
Louisville at FSU
ACC Network Extra
Ball State @ NC State
WMU @ Syr
Elon @ Wake
A lot depends on who is carrying ACCN then. If the Pittsburgh and Orlando markets arent carrying it, you can be sure that it will be on ACCN. That's just how this works.

I think so because there's 7 ACC home games vs G5 opponents that week plus 1 vs FCS. Of those 8, even if 1 gets moved ESPN/2/U and 2 to Raycom/FSS, that's still 5 games left for ACCN and ACCN Extra. I would think in situations like this, they would want to stack as many games as possible on ACCN to build demand.
