Virginia Tech game

What's the likely time for the VT game?

 

[Supersizethatorder-mutt]

I would guess either 3:30 or night. But that's just a guess. If we lose to both Clemson and UVA (and i don't think we will lose both; hopefully neither), it would probably be a nooner.

I don't care. We can beat these people. I've seen them three times and we'll run over them like a tank.

GT can beat the Hokies no matter when the game is played!

Here is the ACC lineup that day:
Duke @ Army - Already set as a 12pm start
Wake @ Syracuse
UVA @ Louisville
FSU @ Clemson
Notre Dame @ Miami (does ACC contract set this start or ND/NBC?.. I don't know)
NC State @ Boston College
Va Tech @ Ga Tech

Assuming nothing really unexpected happens in the next 2 weeks, the game with the most impact on outcome of an ACC divisional situation is the Va Tech v Ga Tech matchup.. by far IMO. Although, FSU v Clemson will draw a big TV audience even though FSU is down. Based on that, I would assume our game would be a 3:30 or primetime kickoff (7:30 or 8:00pm). However, the ACC does some wacky stuff. The ACC will announce this next Monday (10/30).

I see the ‘6-day’ option being taken to wait for the result of the Miami-vpisu game, assuming Notre Dame beats NC State. The Miami-ND game is down in Miami, so it won’t be on nbc. I bet ESPN is salivating a chance to hype the game as Catholics vs Convicts 2.

NBC / ND only applies to ND home games.

Wouldn't it be strange if Notre Dame wound up being the best ACC team this season? Just Sayin'

Maybe that might convince them to deign to join us in full conference status, that is if they think they can actually WIN our conference.

I would think that ND v UM would be a huge national audience game for the top game time for ESPN.

Great point,Madison!

I think the winner of this game goes to the College Football Playoffs.

 

[GTJackets]

If there's anyone looking to unload 2 tickets to this game, please let me know. I'm looking to bring the 8-year-old 2.0 for a father-son trip. There are tickets available through GT and of course StubHub. Just thought I would mention it.

 

[coldbeer]

If we steal one in Clemson on Saturday night, the GT/VPI game could be a doozy at Grant Field. Still think UM will drop one more ACC game along the way

The Miami-Notre Dame game will be the night game, especially if they both win this week. It’ll be on ESPN/ABC because the Hurricanes are hosting. The best we can get is 3:30.

I think the Irish will finish 11-1 and wind up playing in the Playoffs. I think 11-1 Miami winds up playing 10-2 UGAG in the Orange Bowl.

If Notre Dame is 8-1 having beat NC St. and Miami is 8-0 having beat VT, I fully expect College Gameday will be in Miami Gardens/Coral Gables (not sure where they would do it). That is a Top 10 if not a Top 5 match-up by that point.

What's the likely time for the VT game?

I think it really depends on if we beat Clemson or not. If we beat Clemson and UVA, it could very well be a night game. If we beat UVA and lose to Clemson, I am thinking 3:30. If we lose to both Clemson and UVA, count on a noon kick off. ESPN will put a 6-7 day hold on it, I'm sure.

Hoping for a night game. My wife's family is killing me this season. Wedding during Miami game. Baptism on VT game day. I think Im getting really sick and the effects will show up the morning of November 11th....

I think Virginia beats Pitt and loses to GT,Louisville,Miami and VT finishing 6-6 and probably going to the Quick Lane Bowl.
