Just because I'm going through most of the other threads, I'm gonna post on this one. There is no time currently for this game; I'm not sure if it's just because it's an ACC home game; nor can I recall when they release game times, perhaps 2 weeks out? Regardless, here are the ACC games that Saturday that do not have a game time listed per the ACC website.

UVA	Clemson
ND	GA Tech
Miami	Louisville
SMU	Stanford
NC State	Cal

This GT OL is very experienced and very good.

Georgia tech I'm gonna say has one loss when they play us it should be a top 20 matchup

If they can get past L'ville and the classic "trap" game vs UNC the week before they'll be a top 13 team. Are you thinking they lose to L'ville?

Louville Duke UNC I think they drop one

Don’t think I can recall a team that instantly improved their OL via the portal w/ so many transfers. I believe they just flipped a big commit recently too. Sounds like the administration &/or boosters are lining up behind Key.

ND beat assumed the Georgia Dome may have more ND fans when they meet. I suspect they’re re-evaluating that prediction.

I figured GT would be the toughest road game after TAMU. It could wind up being the toughest one out of them all.

I wouldn’t expect it to change too much., tickets have already been allocated for the most part. The draw of ND may bring out more Tech fans but ND should have a really strong contingent from the area and traveling in. I wouldn’t expect a majority ND but I’d be shocked if it was 80-20.

Their OL is experienced and tough. It showed on Saturday.

The DC is Tyler Santucci. Brent Key did a great job last season and they should be poised to do it again this year. They hung onto some key guys and didn't lose them to the portal. They embrace the old school elements of running the ball.

Not an easy place to win.

I’m going to assume they don’t have quality depth. They may not be the same team in October

I wouldn't do that.

Their schedule overall is tough. A couple of interesting road games prior to hosting ND.

Have family in ATL, I may have to make this game.

 

[NDPhilly]

Only a 2.5pt favorite over Syracuse this weekend.

We typically try to get to a roadie every year. Going to the Purdue game, but we're contemplating making the trip to the ATL as well.

 

[Huntr]

Got tix today for this.

Early line is ND -7.5. Similar to the Louisville game last year except it's not at night. Before the year, I had this game as a possible L. If the line drops under a TD I'd be concerned.

Night game on campus is scarier than one inside Benz Stadium. Gotta watch out for the rickety old car flying into the stadium.

UGA is the school where you gotta watch out for reckelessly driven cars

Should be a tough matchup if both team play at their best. Navy worries me over all the remaining opponents. Not solely b/c of their clock churning triple option offense but it’s a noon kickoff at a neutral site. That’s a horrible recipe for ND.

 

[rtrn2glory]

Watching the end of their game with North Carolina and they just said their QB is hurt and out. Not sure how bad it is

 

[rtrn2glory]

And they just scored on 70 yard run to win it. Wow

 

[ab2cmiller]

King was believed to have left the game with a concussion. Will have to wait and see what that means for next week.

 

[arrowryan]

I like the trajectory of this Notre Dame team going into this game. The offense is much better now

 

[IrishLax]

ND was an 8.5 point favorite before this week, have to think it’ll be closer to 10 after the showing by each team this past week.

 

[EvilleIrish]

King was believed to have left the game with a concussion. Will have to wait and see what that means for next week.

Was it a confirmed concussion?

Not 2 weeks ago I could still get tickets for $40 each. Just coming off some major purchases I decided another overnight trip was not in the cards.
