For those that may not remember, 9/19 is in South Bend at 3:30.

ND is getting a lot of preseason hype. I'd imagine they will be top 10 when the Coach's Poll and AP poll are released. I can see us anywhere from 15-25. If we win that game, we should vault in the polls. Of course, that's assuming ND beats Texas and UVA in the first two weeks.

I see the first 2 games are on ACC RSN. I'm drawing a blank if they will be televised in Michigan or not. I know I can hook laptop to the tv but I prefer to watch at my cousins bar.

Free drinks???

Hell no. He's to damn cheap. Lol.

I believe ACC RSN is the Raycom game of the week. I don't think you'd get that in Michigan except on ESPN Gameplan. I only get those games on local channels up in Boston because BC joined the conference.

Thanks. I know I caught a few on Fox Detroit now that I think about it.

Surprised and pleased that we didn't get a noon KO for the Tulane game. It's still going to be hot as blazes though at 3:30

By then most of lower west will be in the shade. It will still be hot, but that helps a lot.

So glad there aren't any nooners yet - how long can we keep that up?

Actually I think I was wrong, the Raycom game is always 12:30. I think these games are on one of the Fox Sports channels most likely.

These are of course subject to change week-to-week, but here is the channel coverage for Georgia Southern game on RSN last year. If you're not an area where it's shown, you can access via ESPN3. These are essentially a nationally televised games.

The RSN games are Fox Sports games. You'll be fine if you have DirecTV. You'll get them in HD if you have the sports choice pack ($15/mo, I just call and activate it for the 3 months of fall).

The ACC Network Raycom games are actually on the local WB here in Milwaukee (in Green Bay as well), it makes life great up here. I imagine they're on the WB in Michigan as well?

Free drinks???

I have free beer at my house for game watchings...... we get some young alumni. But since my past game watchings have been part of an "official" GT Alumni Club, I was wondering if some young alumni wouldn't come because they are not wanting to get pressured to give to GT. We have never done that at our house since it's only about having a good time, the rest will follow. But I was told by a young alum that there is that concern of getting pressured since that's what the GTAA does for contributions. Anyone have an opinion over whether being a game watching would be affected by being a GTAA event or not?

FWIW, this next year I'm just going to do game watchings and not be official GT Alumni Assn. I'll just drink and have a good time (better when we win). THWG.

I definitely wouldn't be surprised if some young alumni passed because of the association with the GTAA. I got my masters three years ago and when we walked across the stage we were handed a roll of paper to represent the degree or whatever (Real one comes in the mail). When you sat back down and opened the paper it was a "please donate to us here's how" letter. Literally the second we were finished they were hitting us up for money. Left a sour taste in a lot of our mouths. Don't know if that's how it goes for the undergrad though.

Fiancee graduated undergrad May 2014. They did it to her too.

I think games on the ACC RSN are streamed live on the ACC website.

When I graduated in '93 and then in '99, I got my read diploma handed to me.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, whatever......LOL

Actually I prefer the 3:30 time to 7PM, because I get home earlier. Hope to see you again in the Fall.
