AAC Schedule

[KnightVision82]

Nice full chart in attachment and full ESPN TV info at bottom.

Unless the game is non-Saturday it doesn't make ESPN.

Friday USF - UCF game has no TV commitment right now.

GOL was upset that we only have one ESPN game.

Do you think the AAC did that on purpose as to limit our exposure? Thinking that would make us less attractive in case of realignment?

 

[Stetson_1883]

Nah. I think that goes way beyond their forward thinking ability.

 

[KnightVision82]

Not sure what they were thinking but we only have one bye this season. We have to play 10 games
before our bye week.

Also, is CBSSPORTS our only TV access for away games? I'll probably buy some college internet
access package (non-cbssports for approx. $40) this season for my smart TV.
I'm off cable and satellite services Ka-ching ($$$)!

I'm guessing next year we'll be back to off Saturday games in order to get more exposure.

We go thru this every year...when some think UCF will only get 2-3 games on TV.

Heck, some (maybe many) have no clue that the home team in our non-conf games control TV Coverage (i.e. Stanford and South Carolina), and you can bet that those UCF games will be on TV as well.

I don't follow other team games, so, do Stanford and So Carolina always get their games on TV, even when they play a "who-cares" G5 team? BCC last year wasn't on TV last year was it? So I assume Furman won't be either. At this time and age with all the barely watched stuff on TV it's a shame every game isn't on somewhere. Let the owner of TV rights release the games they don't care about to some lesser station.

South Carolina played a "who cares G5 team", UCF, and that game was on ABC.

From the link..."The 2015 season is the second under The American's current television contract, which provides for 80 percent of conference-controlled games on national television platforms, including ABC, ESPN, ESPN2, ESPNU, ESPNews and CBS Sports Network and the remainder through ESPN3. The American Athletic Conference Football Championship will be televised either on ABC or ESPN."

The majority of our games will be on TV....the Furman game will probably be on the only one that's not on TV or ESPN3

UCF is the only team in the American that doesn't play a single game on a short week. 4 teams in the conference have multiple short week games.

That's nice, however, UCF does play 4 conference opponents which will have at least one additional day to prepare for their game against us.
