soccer, including our top #8 Tigers who play at #3 UNC tonight.
If there is no football game they can show then there's no issue. The network is supposed to promote all ACC sports, it's not a football only station

You’re exactly right! I dread it for some of our fans when BB seasons begin.

If Clemson were on there, that would be one thing.

All conference games. The other three games are on ACCN or ESPN. For some reason the 4th, BC-Louisville game in on the ACCN Extra now instead of ACCN .Dont know why they couldn't have it on regular network before the two games coming up?

All I'll say about it is that it's football season and ACCN should be televising football. There are only 12 weeks of the regular season and soccer plays fall and spring.
Take a look at the SEC network and see what's on, yes football. Let me see; the ACCN is supposed to provide revenue to ACC athletics and do you think advertisers pay more for commercials during a football game or womens soccer?

1000 people across the USA are watching that match. Not a good business decision but an awesome feel good story.

You do realize that the ACCN is for all ACC sports, right?

Yeah, but people would probably watch college football on a Satuday before women's rowing. Mens football and basketball you always be the top priorities for what fans want.

While I do agree it’s for all sports, this Louisville vs Boston College game should be on there and not on FS1, imo.

I enjoy watching all kinds of college sports. My far and away favorite is college football. I can appreciate the talent and the years of hard work it takes to be able to play sports at any college level, regardless of the sport or the gender. It varies from sport to sport, but in general only 5-7% of all HS athletes play at a collegiate level. It’s more like 1-2% at the D1 level. Just being on a team is an achievement.
