Only 4 ACC games that Sat (UVA - GT on Thu).

Marquee matchup is Cuse at Clemson. Pitt - Ville and Duke - Miami the other ACC games.

Thinking we get the 4 or primetime ACCN game.
 
Primetime ACCN seems about right. Not enough demand to put us on ESPN/ESPN2/ABC between these two schools but our matchup seems more appealing than Pitt-Ville and Duke-Miami. Would expect Cuse-Clemson to be on one of the flagships.
 
Injuries:
Williams (22) finished the game but he had a knee. But no other Injuries come to mind from Army.
Once again it comes back to who is in our secondary? Holmes/Roberts?
Harris / Andeersen?
 
There will probably be only 2 ACCN games that day if Cuse/Clemson gets picked up by ABC/ESPN. RSN will almost certainly have a game, more than likely at 12:30pm (like the ACC schedule for the week of 10/15, which also had 4 games with Clemson/FSU getting an ABC slot).
 
So let’s assume 10/22 has the same slots as 10/15. Here are my guesses.

Noon RSN - Pitt-Louisville
3:30 ACCN - Duke-Miami
7:30 ABC - Cuse-Clemson
8:00 ACCN - BC-Wake

I assume they have no problem giving Clemson 7:30 ABC three weeks in a row.
 
The Big 12 and SEC slates are also really thin that day. Wonder if something like 12:00 on ESPN2 or ESPNU is a possibility
 
Probably not. ESPNU is usually on an additional sports package while I think ACCN is part of the base package for most.
Yeah. I don't know if it is or isn't. I only know that being on RSN is the worst.
 
Matt Sarzyniak has us in the 3:30 ACCN slot, with Duke-Miami in the 8pm ACCN slot.

How accurate has this guy proven to be? Can’t remember how often his guesses line up.

That would actually be 4 weeks in a row for the ABC primetime game for Clemson. State and BC were ABC then FSU is again next week. Would think that's a noon or 3:30 game just for some variety. I think UCLA-Oregon gets ABC primetime that week.
 
Shocked Cuse Clemson is a noon ABC. You’d think ACCN would try to get more big primetime games.

ACCN can only take (end up with) that game for primetime if ABC/ESPN don't want it. An undefeated Syracuse vs. an undefeated Clemson was a lock to go to ABC or ESPN. Plus, as mentioned earlier, Clemson has been at home for 2 night games in a row. I'm sure they preferred to not have a third in a row.
