Duke/Louisville game time

Thanks! I knew that we had a bye after Pitt, I was just assuming that the game time for Duke was today.
I rather have a night game
Seriously doubt it but I haven’t looked at what other games are available that day. I do hope it’s a night game tho.
Duke may lose this Saturday to NC State. Their QB is out with injury. The Devils have a tough conference schedule, still having to play the Cards, FSU and UNC.
When it's all said and done, I think we're going to see a 7 and 5 Duke team.

The ACC has struggled over the last decade to assert itself with the SEC and the BIG, watching Clemson dominate the conference. This year has been refreshing, as not just Duke, UNC, FSU and Louisville stepping it up, but NCST, Syracuse and WF are formidable opponents.
If Clemson continues to improve, the ACC has a legitimate opportunity to go into its Thanksgiving weekend series against their respective in-state rivals to win 3 of the four games.

Possible but not probable. That weekend lacks many marquee matchups. Oregon at Utah is probably the top rated matchup. Duke plays at FSU the week prior to us.
It’s Monday and the game time hasn’t been announced yet, it’s just said “TBD”.
I wonder when they’ll announce it?

Colorado vs UCLA has been given the Primetime 7:30 ABC spot that weekend so that’s off the table.
Open spots are:
12pm ABC
2pm CW
3:30pm ABC or ESPN (wherever BYU-Texas doesn't air)
3:30pm ACCN
8pm ACCN
My guess is that the Duke game is 3:30 on ABC

Best time of day for weather would be 3:30. Right now, Hi of 61 is predicted. Slight wind. Rain should have ended. Cloudy. The attendance isn't going to be 59,000. Cool weather is settling in, and even though Duke may be the 2nd best team the Cards will have played to that point, many fans won't see it that way.
3:30 is a great time for the Cards to play Home ball.

I wouldn’t mind it being at 8pm on ACCN
Only night window open is 8pm on ACC Network. If Duke loses to FSU this weekend then ACC network becomes more likely.
I’m most definitely not saying that you’re wrong, but why do you think it’ll be more likely that Duke/Louisville will be on ACCN at 8pm if Duke loses to FSU?
The night game is looking much colder right now. The afternoon game will bring more fans
I think Clemson vs NC State could get 3:30 ABC spot if Duke is no longer ranked. If Duke vs UofL is two ranked teams going at each then I think it gets 3:30 time slot.
All that being said I have zero special insight into this. Just (semi)educated guesses.
One can hope and pray.Duke doesn't have a prayer down there if their QB doesn't play.
Put on a 6 day hold, so after today's games, tomorrow is when it is supposed to be set.
I know they won’t announce it till tomorrow, but I wonder if they’ll decide before the Duke/FSU game?
No clue, just quoting the article I read. I think the outcome of Duke-FSU will be a big consideration as to the time of our game.
