ACC Network


This network was made for basketball. The viewership during basketball's off-season will be awful. Wouldn't surprise me if they cancel the channel in 5 years.

Nice for you to your use alter again.

if SEC was so tough, those florida teams with no offense wouldn't be able to win the SEC east.

I'm not sure where you are getting the idea that ACC colleges have few football fans.

most people who watch basketball also watch football. for the most part, college football and bball are not competing with each other for viewers.

i don't know what you mean by alter...I've always used Tillman on here.

There's an A She She Network now? Where, I don't see it on DISH. I see the SEC Network,the B1G Network, the PAC12 Network and even the Longhorn Network but I do not see the A She She Network anywhere.

I see where the UF vs Miami game is being simulcast on the SECN tonight .... that's interesting. Must be another home game for the SEC in the eyes of ESPN.

in SC, Spectrum, Comcast, and Northland have the ACC network.

It kicked off yesterday. They played last year's title game last night. Kind of seemed like the Clemson Network.

it is gonna be great exposure for Clemson and the other ACC colleges.

Comcast does not carry ACCN at this time. The only two major providers are DirecTV and Charter-Spectrum. And about 1/5th of Spectrum customers are not getting it.

So, there won't be much access when GT-CU play this coming Thursday. But tickets to the game are still available.

Yes because the final poll is SO much important than finishing 4th in the division or beating UGA

So pathetic that you continually beat that drum but HEY at least you were close in the 3rd gtr!

UF is the new moral victory U,

Congrats!

You are correct. Mullen’s mouth has once again put in a “can”t lose this game” situation. It’s hella fun to watch from the outside.

Miami...they have nothing to lose today. No one expects them to win. Playing with that attitude is dangerous for any opponent, especially the Gaaaaaaaators.

This is the same for Missouri! After what MSU got and are still able to go bowling if they win 6 games or more.

i dont' see any reason to believe Florida is a lock to win this.

Florida's QB isn't that good.

Comcast will have it in next two weeks. it would be stupid not to, b/c it will cost them some customers.

It doesn't matter if you call it Comcast or Xfinity,they are the same entity and they aren't carrying ACCN.

Several major TV providers, including Comcast/Xfinity, Dish Network and Cox cable have yet to reach carriage agreements with the ACC Network.

It was always that situation, brainlet. Maybe go help your boys study and stop crying about the ex-coach that went to your own stadium and put his boot in your face lol.

I trust a two year starter who was gradually improving over a guy who has never started with two freshmen OTs and two sophomores at guard.

Well we finished 10 - 3 with the 14th ranked SOS and Miami finished 7 - 6 with the 72nd ranked SOS.

Staff with continuity, QB with continuity, our offensive line averages 3.8 years in D1 vs. 2.2 for Miami's offensive line.

Mullen has 10 years of being an SEC HC, Manny Diaz has never run a team before.

Really, there is little reason we should lose outside of horrible luck/sloppy play, which is always possible.

But last year Missouri beat Florida! Will Florida beat Missouri in Columbia this year? I doubt that will happen this year. Missouri players and coaches are mad right now and will want to show the NCCA they are wrong and will pay for leaving a great team out of the Bowl game this year.

How do you know that when only one of our starting backers is returning from last year?


That kind of indicates that their TE might be a mismatch, doesn't it?

That said...I think Florida wins by 2-3 TD's. Won't be close after the half....and might not be close at the half.
