Thursday night? Ughhh. Noooo. Swoffie strikes again!

2024 orange level memberbadge-donor-10yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

New coach, new offense, no game film... less than ideal

I'm good enough, I'm smart enough, and doggone it, people like me.


I know you're goofing


Nov 30, 2018, 3:41 PM

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

The definition of awesome!


Opening on a Thursday night...


Nov 30, 2018, 2:08 PM

against a conference opponent with a new coach and new schemes.

Thank you John Swofford

Sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.


If we have to play on a Thursday night


Nov 30, 2018, 2:11 PM

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

Which should be a huge advantage for us


Nov 30, 2018, 2:12 PM [ in reply to Opening on a Thursday night... ]

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

I know how dare Swofford give our fanbase an excuse to make it a 5 day labor day weekend.

Brad Brownell: more losses than any other coach in school history.

Exactly. I'm totally cool with it.

All this time I've wanted the early games to be played at night, I forgot to specify Saturday night!

We will utterly destroy them on Thurs night.***

But on a Thursday night? Uggggggh

Been a while since we opened with an ACC game, though.

We opened with FSU a while back and smoked them

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.

I wonder where I'm going to have to travel to watch it.***

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.

The schedule comes out in what...January? 7-8 months is not enough time to plan a trip?

Thursday kickoff is better than Thursday week 4.

It’s not a foreign concept to ALL folks in Greensboro...

I’m at 261 consecutive games (and counting)!!!

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.

First Wednesday Parade?


Nov 30, 2018, 3:19 PM

Yikes. Just doesn't have the same ring to it.

Re: TNET: ACC Network to launch 2019: GT at Clemson on Thursday night


Nov 30, 2018, 3:31 PM

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.

Nov 30, 2018, 6:04 PM

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.

Years ago I thought of Thursdays as great exposure. Well, that’s clearly not necessary anymore. I figured Clemson was in a position to say NO to any more Thursday games.
