Any speculation on Miami gametime?

Obviously we don't know for sure, but I am trying to work out all the scenarios.  The UF FSU game is 3:30 right?  I reallllly don't want a noon game.  Sincerely..dont want..

i'm hoping someone here has some insider info because i'm still trying to plan my work week around that game.

It would only be speculation at this point but I am guessing it will be Noon. 

I guess if we keep winning and Miami keeps winning and it turns into a top 10 vs top 20 match up it could be the 8pm ABC game.

Yeah im thinking the same thing.  I am really hoping for a night game..we need to take care of business thurs and then for homecoming..the problem is, they have to announce it by the 18th, so itll be before the homecoming game that we find out.  That means how we play thurs and how miami plays is big time.  Hope hope hope its 8pm.  Here are all the  games that are TBA..

TBA Florida State at No. 1 Florida    Tickets

TBA Georgia at No. 7 Georgia Tech    Tickets

TBA No. 14 Miami (FL) at No. 24 South Florida    Tickets

Considering that it is "rivalry weekend", I bet it's a noon start.  There are some other games that will draw better ratings then us and Miami.

well from that list that girly posted...i would say the only others that would be considered for the 8pm slot would be Okla St vs Okla or Clemson at South Carolina. 

the rest would either by CBS games or not close to being a big matchup.

I could see our game getting the 8pm slot...assuming neither team loses a game prior to that. 

I don't see FSU at UF being a night game.

Noon, the only way we would come after the FSU vs. UF game is if Miami was ranked higher and we are ranked.

True, Ga-GT is another one to watch out for.  But you also have ND-Stanford on ABC at 8:00 already.  There is a chance, but the only thing I see that could be an issues is that our game doesn't have a lot of "drama" or history.  It would be two ranked teams that seem to be heading in the right direction.  That may not be enough in ESPN's eyes, they may go after the other games.

[Matt]

wouldnt that ND-Stanford game be on NBC?  and the GA-GT game would be a CBS game since it is a road SEC team

where teams are ranked have no bearing on who plays before who.
