First, what kind of conference leadership doesn’t fight for Miami-South Florida to have a better slot than on CW? Somebody should be raising ****. Other than diehard Canes & USF fans who is gonna search for & find CW? Finally, thought the ACC revenue distribution plan - assuming it’s in place this season - rewards schools based on TV eyeballs, viewership or whatever. If so, this is a major lost opportunity.

Its on over the air tv. I asked on here earlier and looked it up. I had no problem finding it when the smu-baylor game was on there last week.. People will find it if they want to watch and we will get the people looking for buffy the vampire reruns and stumble into our game

People acting otherwise are just being purposely obtuse.
Especially when Georgia Tennessee is on ABC.

At this moment this week… just win the **** game on the field. If your in the area show up and support the boys out on the field.
We have a few games where we will have millions watching Florida, FSU to name a few…

They have a contract to broadcast the ACC. Just bad luck it is this game for the Canes.

First, this is an OOC game. So I'm not really sure that it's up to the "ACC" to "fight" for a better timeslot.
Second, the CW is a national network, like ABC and Fox. It's pretty easy to find. Actually, it's easier to find in Miami than the (new) local ABC affiliate. I stayed in a hotel IN CORAL GABLES on Saturday night before the Notre Dame game, and I had to go over to the Yard House to watch the FSU-Alabama game because the hotel didn't have the new Miami ABC affiliate on the TV dial.
Third, the ACC revenue distribution arrangement is still in place for conference games. Clearly, Miami is going to have a great OOC year for TV ratings, between the Notre Dame and Florida games, plus whatever they can round up for the USF game viewership. The ACC is not going to pay us a pile of money simply because we scheduled the best OOC slate for 2025.
Relax.
You right but they look for particular games, like I didnt even realize smu-baylor was on there, I just wanted to watch that game and pulled it up.. It was very easy to find and i switched as soon as it was over to another game where I dont know the network

I thought Nielsen was supposed to start measuring ACC Network this year? Did I imagine that?

Uh, CW is a nationally broadcast channel that reaches 100% of US TVs, same as Fox, CBS, NBC, and ABC. Idk where this idea of searching is coming from. Being on the CW may not be the best for ratings purely because CW is JUST NOW entering sports, but CW carrying games is better for most football fans than ESPN/TNT/FoxSports/ESPN2 and all the like....
