The nooner vs. Cuse is stupid. Cuse has a good chance to


Oct 10, 2022, 11:51 AM

beat Nancy Tate....they're at home and coming off a bye week. Nancy Tate's QB Leary is "questionable" with a bad shoulder. Potentially two undefeated, top 15 teams playing in DV.....at noon?!? Unreal. Wish they'd push it to 3:30.

3:30 at the very least. 7:30 ideal against a strong Syracuse


Oct 10, 2022, 11:56 AM

They always play out of their minds against us. Dino being awestruck in a night time environment in Death Valley would be priceless.

It may be disappointing to us, but you guys have to realize that over 99% of the people in this country are not Clemson nor Syracuse fans. They do not care about the channel we are on or the time the game starts. They would rather watch their favorite teams play.

I know it is hard for you guys to accept. But we are not the be all and end all in American sports. We have been the prime time night game on ABC two weeks in a row. 99% of Americans want to watch some other teams this week. They are tired of us and our spoiled, mouthy ever complaining fans.

EXACTLY my thoughts too.


Oct 10, 2022, 11:57 AM

3:30 should be the time, imho!

Agree. A large,large number of fans who attend the games at Clemson come from places other than Anderson or Easley. Being on the road, miles from home at two in the morning isn’t my idea of fun! Ban night games,!,!,

Man it’s getting that way for me as well. Love the night game environment but the trek home afterwards is no fun. Hate to spend the money to go sleep a few hours and just head back the next morning.

Exactly. Some of us are forced to come up on Friday night as a result, just to have a chance to actually enjoy a tailgate breakfast Saturday morning.

Let’s see, either a noon nationally televised game or a 3:30 regional game. I’ll take the nooner every time.

I use to HATE noon games.

the best chance to win so they schedule accordingly.

The Wake game is an anomaly.

Re: I have a conspiracy. The ACC wants Clemson opponents to have

Is that why they gave Clemson two night games at home so far this season?

Oct 10, 2022, 1:12 PM

We got the ABC game, so they think it's a big game just not as big as some of the other on the slate.

IMHO we should be the 3:30 game though as it is one of the only ranked vs ranked games... they are not giving Syracuse any love here...

NC State @. Cuse should be an interesting game Saturday, especially if Leary cannot play. Syracuse has put up some numbers but the level of opponent has not been exa tty tough, Louisville opening weekend and Purdue week 3, they do run the gauntlet over the next 4-5 weeks ....

Here are the other currently ranked vs ranked games that weekend.

17 Kansas State @ 13 TCU

16 Mississippi State @ 3 Alabama (depends on the outcome in Knoxville)

22 Texas @ 8 Oklahoma State

The big game will be 11 UCLA @ 12 Oregon, as long as there are no upsets this should be the Gameday venue

I'm not a huge fan of Noon games and I understand why people don't like night games with the traffic afterwards (been there MANY times rolling into the house at nearly 3-4am after a night game). But I can see why this got a noon spot. There's a ton of high profile games (Bama/Miss St., Oregon/UCLA, Texas/OkSt., K. State/TCU, Ole Miss/LSU, Penn St./Minnesota) that day and TV slates have to distribute them out evenly somehow for maximum viewership. Still would've liked the 3:30 spot for this one though, or at least waited to see how this weekend played out first.

The #3 Alabama vs. #6 Tennessee matchup


Oct 10, 2022, 2:52 PM

Is going to get a huge TV audience at 3:30.

I'd rather not go up against that.

The nooner is fine.

For those of us driving to the game from the lowcountry, not really. Nooners are a drag.

Alabama/Tennessee is this weekend. Alabama plays Miss. St. the weekend we play Syracuse.

Noon is national TV. 3:30 is not.

undefeated it should be one of the most watched games on TV, and it should be cooler then?

An old but still true story.


Oct 10, 2022, 3:53 PM

Back in the early 1980s (before FSU started on their dynasty run) a fan asked Bobby Bowden why they played so many afternoon games instead of night games. He replied, "When the networks call and say kickoff is at 2, I say, 'AM or PM'."

Money drives the train.

If Cuse beats them I believe they could change that time

When is the last time we went this far into the hot months without a nooner?

Count your blessings.
