that would would schedule an away game, on a Friday night, for a member school who is the defending National Champion.

Was it really? I don't watch TV on Friday nights.

Historically, Friday night is home to the lowest rated TV shows.
It's a desperate move that ##### with team schedules. It threw a wrench in Clemson's season as a result. Swofford doesn't care.

buyers remorse now. The time to complain was prior to the game, not AFTER a historic loss. The problem was with coaching and player execution. Oh, and player focus. Which comes back to coaching...

You sir are responding to the original post and he did not blame our loss on playing on Friday night. He is blaming John Swafford and the morons at the ACC for scheduling us to play during a time shot normally reserved for high school football and teams that are NOT the defending National Champions!

The PAC 12's on this same level. Pre-season CFP favorite USC had to play back to back road games with the 2nd one coming on a Friday. They did the exact same thing to Wash. St. this week. IMO all teams with a Thursday/Friday game should have bye week preceding it.
