Wake-State Game Kickoff Time

if we got 8 pm ABC I'd imagine it's one of those ones where Herbstreit does not do the primetime game.
If Gameday is at Wake that day, and UNC/Wake is the 7:30pm ABC game, there is a 99% chance Herbstreit will call the game that night. The weeks where he doesn't do the ABC primetime game (like last week), are when the 7:30pm game is not the site of the primetime game (Oregon hosted Gameday but their game was on FOX, Minnesota/Penn State was the ABC primetime game, so they sent Herbie to Alabama/Miss. St. at 7pm on ESPN instead).
 
Honestly, if Wake and UNC both win the next couple weeks I could see Gameday in Winston. The only other ranked game as of right now for that week is Alabama @ Ole Miss. Of course, if Ole Miss beats TAMU this week that's almost guaranteed to be a top 15 matchup. So I'd guess they'd go there?
 
Both games are likely to be Top 15 matchups.

Wake-UNC less so for sure. Both are roughly 4 point favorites this week and will both be single digit odds on the road next week as well (both likely favored still though).

Gameday will go to Ole Miss-Bama
 
Yeah I'm not sure who hasn't been paying attention for the last 20 years, but if you think Gameday is coming to Wake/UNC over Ole Miss/Bama if all 4 teams keep winning, you are sick in the head.
 
Ole Miss only has 1 game until then, but it is on the road against A&M. Problem is, even if they lose, the Bama game could still decide the SEC West (both would have 2 losses and Ole Miss would have the head to head). Highly likely Gameday heads to Oxford no matter what results occur in the next 2 weeks.

ETA it's unfortunate Will Levis blew that UK/Ole Miss game, as we'd have a much better chance.
 
Don't think one loss will make a difference, but we've now filled that quota. Think we both need to win this coming weekend to guarantee the ABC slot. 2 losses in a row, must bump us down. Beat the Wolfpack!
