When they went to this 6 day hold crap they showed they did not care about fans and that it is all about the money. Its Thanksgiving weekend and it would be nice to have the time at least 2 weeks in advance so that those that travel could make plans.

May have room for one more but most likely 3:30 regional or maybe a night game since those slots are unaccounted for.

CBS owns the 3:30 spot, they won't put us up against that,

CBS doesn't own the 3:30 slot, every week there are numerous games on at 3:30. This is an ACC home game, so CBS has no say in the matter.

CBS has the highest ratings on 3:30 games, that is why

ABC/ESPN does the regional split on 3:30 games...The CBS game will undoubtedly be the Iron Bowl and I doubt we go head to head with that...try to keep up

Why wouldn't the iron bowl be a night time game? I'm guessing there are many rivalry games that will be scheduled ahead of Clemson/scar.

Not much here, but does make 3:30 or night game more likely

CBS announced Alabama v. Auburn will be at 3:30 and Michigan v. Ohio State will be on ABC/ESPN at Noon. It looks like ESPN still has 1 slot open at noon, 2 slots open at 3:30, and 2 slots open for night games. These are the games they have to put in those slots:
South Carolina at Clemson Duke at Miami Florida at Florida State Kentucky at Louisville Virginia at Virginia Tech
There won't be much competition from games on other networks during the night games, so they will put the most attractive matchup there and possibly the second most attractive as well. They will put the least attractive matchup at noon opposite Michigan v. Ohio State. Looking at the games they have to choose from, IMO we will be at 3:30 or at night.

Conferences need to put a clause into TV contracts
Nov 15, 2016, 7:15 AM
|

That the networks are disallowed from putting a 6-day option on games scheduled on Thanksgiving weekend. Attending those games is already disruptive enough, but having to put a hold on holiday planning for another week is really, REALLY annoying.

Why is it disruptive? You eat turkey on Thursday, the ballgame is played on Saturday.

I'll just assume it's not, and that you're an intelligent person making a sarcastic post.
