FSU vs. Florida
Louisville vs. Kentucky
Clemson vs. South Carolina
Georgia Tech vs. Georgia
The ACC has a golden opportunity to make a statement this weekend...
I think FSU and Louisville will for sure win their games...
Clemson-South Carolina will be tough
But I think Georgia Tech has the opportunity to drop some jaws this weekend...Georgia DOESN'T WANT to play this game. It really means nothing to them...Georgia fans want to watch Mizzou lose, so Georgia can go to the SEC Championship
Meanwhile, GT has already punched their ticket to the ACC Championship. They get Georgia this week, and FSU next week....great time to be a GT fan! I think GT comes out swinging and knocks off the Bulldogs
Don't mean to hijack the thread, but can someone explain to me why Tenn vs. Vandy is the 4 PM game on SECN while GT vs. UGA is at noon?

Maybe so somebody will be watching it. At 4 PM it would be competing with both the Egg Bowl and Notre Dame-USC for eyeballs.

So at noon it's up against Michigan/Ohio State and Clemson/South Carolina...
...not to mention NC State/UNC!

The Inbred Retards still have an outside shot of a CFP berth. If they beat GT in a blowout (which looks highly probable) ESPN will gush that GT was world beaters and in fact the Harlem Globetrotters of football. UGAg by virtue of that and other games will move up to 7th or higher. Win in the SEC-CG against Bama and now you're talking #4 seed.
If GT wins ESPN laments UGAg was flawed and weak anyway and I mean come on Florida amirite??
A LOT of great games at Noon.....?
Oh well lets ALL KICK OUR $ec opponent smooth in the nuts!!!
FlossY Out...
If the ACC wins 3 of the four, they will finish the regular season with a 3-2 record vs the SEC and 7-6 vs the P5. The SEC would be 6-5 vs the P5.
That would be a pretty respectable showing. Especially if we could back it up with a decent showing in bowl games (for a change).

I think you guys have a chance to give Kentucky a beating
I predict a 2-2 split.
FSU will probably win ugly. UofL will probably win handily. GT will probably lose handily. And after hearing a *TON* of talk of Chad Morris, Dabo, and others on the Clemson coaching staff leaving ... I'm thinking the Chickens win again as Clemson won't be as focused as they need to be to overcome that horrible offense.

The question should be why the ONE ACC vs SEC matchup that has both teams ranked is placed on the SECN. Last I checked....the ACC isn't located in just the South. I guess they think that only the ACC South matters?

Perhaps it's ESPN's and the SEC's way to encourage more interest in the SECN?
Btw, I get the SECN up here in the NYC metro area. So I enjoyed watching it.
Better than watching my Orange lose again.

3-0 versus SEC so far today. What's the season record against the SEC?

Kentucky and South Carolina were road games. You can't put non-conference road games on a conference network. Georgia was at home so that game pretty much had to be the choice to go on the SEC Network.

3-1 going into the FSU game. We are 7-5 against the four P5 conferences.

Well of course it is. It is interesting that you guys get the SECN. I am curious, is it extended basic tier along with the ESPN's or is it the extended sports package above and beyond extended basic?

Once again....these games aren't all scheduled in advanced in terms of kick off times. All that is scheduled that far in advance is who plays whom. Kick off times are figured during the season.
