The best news of the sports week, and it’s just Monday – the UVA Football game at Cal on Saturday is not Pac-12 After Dark, as expected, but rather, we get a 3:45 p.m. ET kick.
The game will be broadcast on ESPN2.
How hard did Carla Williams have to lobby to get a 3:45 p.m. ET kick, I wonder.
I know, officially, it’s ESPN’s call.
Neither of the Left Coast games this week is being forced into the 10:30 p.m. ET window.
Pitt-Stanford gets a 3:30 p.m. ET kickoff on ACCN.
Weird.
ESPN has #17 Cincinnati at #24 Utah at 10:15 p.m. ET, but that’s literally it.
Are they maybe trying to be fair to the East Coast teams, finally?
Both UVA (7-1, 4-0 ACC) and Pitt (6-2, 4-1 ACC) are in the thick of the race for a spot in the ACC Championship Game, so, maybe that’s a factor.
Also announced on Monday: the home game with Wake Forest on Saturday, Nov. 8, gets a 7 p.m. ET kickoff.
