8:00: ACCN - Duke @ Georgia Tech
10:30: ESPN - #8 Miami @ California

- 4 noon games seems excessive. Seems like CW could have offered a different start time. Going to be hard for. A little surprised WVU @ Okie St got the mid-afternoon ESPN2 start over Pitt/UNC. Maybe they didnt want the 11AM local start but ESPN usually doesnt care about that. Texas A&M, Wisconsin, Northern Illinois, and Tulsa kick at 11AM on Saturday. Air Force kicks at 10AM.

- Its weird how the ACC schedule works out. Pitt is the only team who hasnt played. FSU, at 1-3 is halfway complete.

- SMU/Lou should be a really good game. Wished that werent in the glut of noon games but its hard to get ESPN primetime with the SEC games....and of course Clem and FSU usually get first dibs of the ACC games.

- I think Stanford beats the 2nd worst coach in the ACC.

- Cristobal finally finds a way to lose one. He proved me wrong 2 weeks in a row. Cal has a Top 5 RB. They are legit. And we better be ready next week because our DL hasnt been good.
 
Cal’s RB has been hurt all year and hasn’t done anything this season.

Maybe he got right after the bye week.

But he hasn’t been good this season as of yet, and nothing about them is particularly “legit.” 47 in F+ offense, 60 in defense. They have been able to get an abnormal amount of turnovers this season, which has carried them.

Clemson and FSU getting that time slot over SMU-Louisville is somewhat proof of the point Clemson and FSU are trying to make. Scoreboard doesn’t matter as much when it comes to tv drawing power in the ACC.
 
SMU @ Louisville should be 3:30. Noon kickoff sucks for the Pony fans and that could be a fun game for the wider audience.

There's too many SEC games on ESPN to compete with. In terms of what games get the biggest ratings, here's the ABC/ESPN/ESPN2 schedule for Saturday

noon
ABC - Mizzou @ A&M
ESPN - SMU @ Lou
ESPN2 - Pitt @ UNC

3:30
ABC - Auburn @ UGa
ESPN - Mississippi @ South Carolina
ESPN2 - WVU @ OKSt (4PM)

Primetime
ABC - Ten @ Ark
ESPN - Clem @ FSU
ESPN2 - Kan @ ASU

You could say it should 3:30 or primetime on ESPN2 but ESPN2 gets really bad ratings compared to ESPN so ESPN would prefer its better games on ESPN.

Many viewers of FSU this year are watching to laugh at them and their fans. For me it is like watching Air Crash Investigation shows. But I can laugh at FSU and nobody actually dies. But really if some of their fans would die I'd probably laugh at that too. The epic fail of FSU this year after all the squawking is really funny.

Struggling to understand how Cal is legit. They have beat absolutely nobody, and they lost to a bad FSU team.

But yeah... SMU and Louisville is way more intriguing than FSU/Clemson. It does go to show how much brand value means.

Sure.
But you have to care, to care about the fall. Otherwise you wouldn’t hate watch.

And that's why I would STILL offer FSU a very large, almost SEC-level revenue number to stay. They are worth a lot more than Wake and BC.

I realize that you are generally clueless, but Cal won at an SEC program. The same SEC you're always kneeling for on a Pitt board. Jobber.

Wish you and Cash would go the way of the dodo. You pollute almost every single thread with your snark and negativity.

Auburn sucks, you moron. I understand you're incapable of nuance, but that is a very mid Oklahoma team (despite its current 4-1 record, it may struggle to go 7-5) that just beat them - as if losses to Arkansas and Cal weren't damning enough. My goodness, no wonder your betting threads always turn into self-embarrassment.

Bet on Cal tomorrow night if you're so convinced they're the real deal. Show us the bet.
