Clemson AD on Kickoff Times For Last Two Games


by -

CLEMSON -- The Clemson vs. South Carolina game at Clemson on November 23 will

kickoff at 7:45 PM and will be televised by ESPN.

Earlier today it was also announced that the Maryland at Clemson game on

November 16 will be televised by ESPN-2 and will kickoff at 7:45 PM.

Clemson AD Terry Don Phillips on Clemson's last two home games starting at 7:45 PM:

"I personally prefer to play games during the day and I know

our fans feel that way. We are aware that a high percentage of our

fans travel a great distance to see the Tigers play in Death Valley

and playing games at night presents an inconvenience. I have talked

with people at ESPN about our unique situation.

"At the same time, playing on national television on ESPN or

ESPN-2 will give us the opportunity to showcase our football program

and our University on a national stage. We have won our last two

games and there is national interest in our team. There is also a

great deal of interest in the 100th game between Clemson and South

Carolina. That is why ESPN has selected these games for prime time

viewing.

"When we moved the NC State game to Thursday night, they did promise

to schedule our Georgia Tech and homecoming game against Wake Forest

earlier this year in the afternoon and we appreciate that."
