Duke game time

[berens007]

Great job by the Heels last night!

Anyone know where time on the Duke game stands? I haven't paid attention during the week, but is it one of those deals where ESPN "optioned" the game and we won't find out till next week? I have used zero of my season tix this year thanks to having a 7 week old baby (Heels undefeated in her life! She was born after the first game). Thankfully my brother has found folks to go, but want to make this one if at all possible.

Happy Friday to all

I believe the game time has already been set to Noon (crack of dawn in football terms). ESPN shot themselves in the foot with this one. Would have been a helluva prime time night game.

Not sure if it matters, but I just pulled the schedule up on Google and it's still listed as "TBD".

 

[Super6Fan]

Scratch that, it's listed @ 12:30 ABC/ESPN2/U.

Screw ESPN and their SEC love fest.

yep now just seeing this for the first time - hadn't seen it before today. I agree we deserve way better than this time slot, but should help me make the round trip from CLT and stay married

ESPN should want to hype the game. The ACC office should be be demanding it be hyped.

Try again. ESPN chose to hype the B1G this weekend which directly impacted the ACC. ESPN put Nebraska - Michigan State on ESPN/ESPN2 at 8 p.m. and Ohio State - Minnesota at 8 p.m. on ABC. That left only 3:30 and 12:30 and 12:00 for ACC time slots. ACC assigned 3:30 to the best game on their slate (Clemson - FSU) and we were next in line.

Not everything is a GD conspiracy against UNC. Good Lord. I'll be in my seat on time and it's a 13.5-hour drive for me round-trip. Nut up or shut up. Go Heels! Keep the Bell!

No offense intended whatsoever @berens007 but there are plenty of avenues to give your tickets away if you can't use them man. In the future, hit me up and I can facilitate you getting them into the hands of passionate Heels who will be loud and proud. Just some friendly advise

Not picking on you. Lots of folks buy season tix and then they go unused. That's why Kenan can't fill up -- it's a "using purchased tix" issue, not so much a "buying tix" issue.

 

[bleeduncblue]

Yep, I agree - there is NO REASON for purchased tickets to go unused. I'm connected with a couple different boys / girls homes in the Triangle and donate UNC football and basketball tickets to them every chance I get.

........pretty sure he said his brother got them and had friends use them. Just saying..........

Ah yes perhaps I read it wrong (read it as his brother using the tix this week only), but like I said, not picking on him whatsoever!!

I just wanted to make the point that I do know for a fact that many purchased tickets go un-used. I know this 100% to be a fact. This is the reason Kenan can never fill up; our ticket sales numbers are actually always pretty good to be honest.

Sorry for the confusion @berens007

no prob - not always easy to pick up meaning out of a quick message board post. i feel the pain on the empty seats and certainly don't want to contribute to that issue!

 

[UNCGridironFanatic]

Not a conspiracy, no. But also no doubt that ESPN DOES have a lovefest w/ the SEC, and to a lesser degree the B1G.

Scratch that, dspn has other games at 12:30pm, not us, we're TBD on dspn/dspn2 or dspn3...as of this morning.
