Last I checked we are part of a TV contract. Like Dabo said the noon game is a prime time game now. What better way to promote the program than to be the National game at noon.
Heck all our games used to be at 1pm back in the day.

Nooners are unpopular , so whoever is at Clemson assigning game times doesn't have a finger on the pulse , and furthermore may be unaware of where to place said finger .

That is all.

The way I think it works is that Clemson can have a game anytime its wants but if you want TV coverage (AKA $$$) you have to have it when the TV network says you have it.

he doesn't have any say in it which is believable.
if dabo says Clemson has no say in it, then I don't believe him.

All Clemson can do is inform the ACC of a preference, if
Oct 24, 2018, 4:16 PM

they have one. The ACC relays that to the TV partners (in our case it’s espn and Raycom). The ACC TV partners hold all the cards and make the decisions. All we can do is make requests through the ACC office. That’s all, even if you don’t believe it.
I remember this coming straight from the ACC several years ago. I believe they have a FAQ about it published somewhere.

At least it’s not on Friday night!!!

Much rather have Saturday- any time of the day as opposed to a Friday night.
If Clemson has any pull- I hope they use it so we never play again on Fridays. I also hate Thursday night games - but Friday is ridiculous!!!!!
