But I like our chances. GT will be a big pile of poop for at least a few years.

I'd rather do it for the opener than during the middle of the season.

Their players would be new to this too. And Tech doesn't exactly have talent all over the field like we do ...

I like it. Down time is two days shorter.
Plus, night game.
Plus, extra prep time for Texas A&M.

So did Swofford make sure once the network is launched that even more ACC content will get pushed over to and behind the ESPN+ pay wall? I just know at end of all this I’ll be paying more for IPTAY and tv fees to see my Tigers.

Such garbage to bury the fact we’re playing
Nov 30, 2018, 2:20 PM

A home game on a Thursday night in this press conference.
I wonder when more schedule details will trickle out? They should focus on getting the football schedule out early, like all the other conferences do. For those of us who travel to support our team, we have to handle the logistics. I know this is a foreign concept to the folks in Greensboro...
Freaking ACC.

A banner should run at the bottom of the screen through the first half saying “unfortunately this is as good as we have to offer this year”. August college football is boring and understand this is the game they are using as a magnet to draw subscribers.

This can't possibly be right. Everyone knows the ACC doesn't announce football schedule until well into the new year.

This sets up Clemson to start next season with a conference win and 2 extra days to prepare for Texas A&M (assuming that game is week 2). Save that FCS game for the week before S Carolina...
However, beware the conference network curse: first game on the Big Ten Network was App State over Michigan; 2nd game on SEC Network was Temple at Vanderbilt - the Commodores got drilled by 30.

G Tech will not have the personnel in place for their new scheme. Will not be an issue at all.

Oh my. What an absolute tragedy in the making. This could be a match-up of a defending National Champion vs. a team with a new coach. At the end of that game, CLEMSON will give their new coach his first THUMB for five-in-a-row. Welcome to the ACC.
