I would still prefer 6pm, since the only other ACC game


Sep 16, 2009, 7:50 PM [ in reply to And it's all because of tigernet*** ]

later than 1pm is Duke and NC Central I think it would give the ACC at least one prime time or semi-prime time game and Raycom should pick it up for the ACC.

Outstanding job, TDP. You cannot beat a 3:30 kick-off.*******

You can beat it, 4, 430, 5, 530, 6, 630, 7, 730, 8 oclock


Sep 16, 2009, 4:32 PM

would be better, and all the increments in between those.

But 330 is way better than 1.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Well, honestly that's arguable. If there is an opportunity


Sep 16, 2009, 4:52 PM

for TV I would think 3:30 would be a better slot. Regardless of TV, though, there are plenty of fans who prefer a day game to a night game. 3:30 is a great compromise.

TV possibly picking it up still?

No idea. I had heard it was under consideration for a time


Sep 16, 2009, 4:22 PM

change and being picked up on television. Clearly, the time change part was correct. Don't know if the TV part was or not. 3:30 certainly gives more options.

now that's more like it why can't it be on espn2? i hate not being able to see this game. with a team like TCU you'd think it would be nationaly televised..

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Are most of TCU's games "nationally televised" against


Sep 16, 2009, 4:26 PM

non-ranked teams? I live in VA and would love to see the game too, but be a little bit real!

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Re: Are most of TCU's games "nationally televised" against


Sep 16, 2009, 4:36 PM

Yes, every single TCU game is on some form of National TV except for Clemson and our home opener against Texas State.

I look forward to a good game against a very good and under-rated Clemson team. I just wish the SOB's at ESPN would recognize what a good matchup this is.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

National TV? If that's the case, then this makes NO sense!


Sep 16, 2009, 4:44 PM

I can understand all TCU games being on some regional telecasts, especially in Texas, but "national" tv...I just haven't been paying attention. But, I will now!

Good luck to you guys!

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Re: National TV? If that's the case, then this makes NO sense!


Sep 16, 2009, 5:09 PM

It's because we have our own TV deal and our own conference network on DirecTV. This kind of stuff is why our conference left ESPN. Clemson vs. TCU will be one of the best matchups on that day.

I think we'll have our hands full with your team. I was rooting for you to beat GaTech. Good luck this weekend.

Re: National TV? If that's the case, then this makes NO sense!


Sep 16, 2009, 5:20 PM

There's pros and cons to the TCU/Mountain West Conference TV contract. Yes, every one of our games is televised, so we get to see them, but they are on channels that average Joe fan does not watch (Versus, CBS College, and The Mountain). It hurts our national appeal (we're not the nation's media darling that Boise is), but at least as fans, we get to see every game.

Personally, I'd rather have our situation where we get to see every game, but there is definitely a downside.

The sad thing is that he didn't realize that 3:30 was the happy medium in the first place.

Re: Clemson vs. TCU Game Moved to 3:30 PM

Maybe we can offer to pay the TV networks to be on them instead of them paying us. That would probably work. Maybe up your IPTAY donation to do that.

This only helps our team. Good move TDP! Prefer 7pm, but

3:30 will work! 12 and 1 pm stink, and the fans/team come out flat. This is a good move!

This will help the Texas recruiting base if they get the game on 360.

Sep 16, 2009, 8:17 PM [ in reply to This only helps our team. Good move TDP! Prefer 7pm, but ]

I voiced my opinion earlier in response to the blog, but really 3:30 is the best compromise. Not too early, and not too late. Still a stretch to get there for those of us driving 4 hours and allowing for some good tailgating, but very doable.

Re: Why on earth not on national TV?????***


Sep 16, 2009, 8:21 PM

That could change, depending on what happens this weekend. The GT game was a killer for us, and the sad part is we got hosed. Hosed by the refs on the phantom hold and hosed on the fake punt with a fake field goal/punt straight to their returner, and a fake punt to us with no coverage. Duh!!!

Should have moved it to noon......


Sep 16, 2009, 8:41 PM

Would have worked much better for TCU and their 2 hr. jet lag. Much prefer to have the teams kick-off at noon or even 11:00 in the morning. To heck with the tailgating, to heck with the heat. All I want is a win.
