And there's your perk to ACC membership

Not sure if this is a serious comment or sarcastic one.

Who cares? You'd bash it anyway.

Glad to be able to see the game, since I can't actually go to the game.

The Big East did not have this, and YES, it is nice to be able to watch the entire Spring game on video ;-)

ND's spring game (84th annual Blue-Gold game) is set for 1 p.m. EDT, Saturday, April 20, 2013.

It will be televised on NBC Sports.

So that makes 10 out of 15. The only ones missing are: Ga Tech, Wake Forest, Maryland, Syracuse and Boston College. What's up, guys?

Our spring game is scheduled for April 20th at 1:00 pm.

I'll be at the baseball game that day instead.

For a conference that doesn't have it's own network, the ACC gets tons of exposure

Most BCS programs are having their games aired these days. I don't consider it an ACC perk. It had more to do with the Big East having a crap contract. No bashing. Just truth.

It sold all of its rights for cheap to get it.

Five teams will NOT have their spring game on ESPN3... Maryland is one of them, and the Terps are NOT happy about it! - LINK.

1. We're still on the BIG EAST contract, so ACC exposure perks haven't materialized yet. I have no idea how Pitt got their game aired.

2. ESPN may not be too enthused about doing UMD a solid given they are jumping to Fox very soon.

3. WF and BC may not have enough of a following. It's hard to get Boston's attention, and BC is down right now, so their fan support is lacking. As for WF, they are a small private school that is in a state that also holds 3 other BCS programs and is surrounded by states with multiple BCS programs, including top tier teams, like UTenn to the west, Clemson and USCarolina to the south, and Virginia Tech to the north. I think that they have trouble getting out of everyone's shadow.

4. I have no idea why GT wouldn't be aired. Maybe they're trying to keep it secret because they are unleashing their no prisoners offense, and their 12 man defense... :noisycricket:

Spring football just doesn't register as important to most Wake fans. Honestly, the popularity of watching your team play itself in a meaningless scrimmage is a bizarre phenomena.

Thanks for posting that. I saw the list and it certainly raised my eyebrow that the Terps were not being shown.

Maybe so... but that is PRECISELY the type of rabid fan following that it takes to play at the top level.

Perhaps Paul Johnson decided to take my advice and install the "Mouse" Davis Run & Shoot?

GT spring games have always been public. This year is no exception.
ESPN has never aired a GT spring game. This year is no exception.

You'd need to ask the worldwide leader why no coverage ... because it aint GT's fault.
