Duke/GT 10/5 set for an 8pm kick on ACC Network

[AUFC]

Per TheACC.com. TV loves Bobby Dodd at night.

Was hoping for 3:30 so we could get appearances from Roman/Sheamus with WWE at State Farm that night. That's okay. I'll take BDS at night any time.

This seems like a surprise, but a good one

And so do I! We get another opportunity to showcase the program. I love it!

Wonder what the line will be I guess Duke -5

We should be favored I think.

Duke is not good. I watched a bit of their OT win against Northwestern, then they barely beat UConn a week later at home. Their game this week against UNC is going to be a rock fight with both schools begging for basketball season by the end.

Yellow Jackets have much to figure out during season’s first bye week

If ever there was a date for a week off, this is it.

Agree. Duke is undefeated but with no impressive wins. As is typical, they have one of the P4's weakest opening schedules before starting ACC play. UNC should beat them unless the elite TFG defense shows up again.

Must watch the Duke UNC game to learn from the minister of mayhem.
Then do the opposite.

If you're a fan of night games (I am), the ACC Network and CW TV deals have been such a blessing. 2 more potential slots for night games that we didn't have before. The 8PM ACCN game is probably one of the last picks amongst the networks since it goes up against the ESPN Game of the Week, but it doesn't matter to me how we get there

Whoo hoo. Another game when I get home at 3am. Need a huge win for the long ride home.

To old and to far to pull a 5 hour drive. You are a better man than me.

On way up we get a motel room in Newnan - freshen up, get nice steak .. do game.

Id love to do that but have a second job doing a high school football score show until midnight on Fridays. Love that I get to sleep in. Won't leave until 3 to head up there and get back 12 hours later lol

probably us by like -2 or -3.

The kickoff helps us a ton. We haven't lost a night home game since Virginia in 2022 (which we do not speak of.)

 

[iceeater1969]

I put the following in the try to be positive thread.

Our Schedule next 3 weeks
Bye, Duke, UNC
Great for game planning - tendancies, whose not able to start.

Also we get them as thier 6th straight game.

That UVA game may be one of the worst football games ever… both teams did not deserve to be on that field

Sometimes those games happen... hell even to good teams, look at the '06 ACC title game as an example.

Wouldn't you have loved to have Due's schedule to date. I believe our schedules were chosen for ticket sales, not Ws and Ls ( unfortunately). Maybe Batt will do a better job.
