Any guesses which network the Louisville vs Purdue game will be on? Don't see it listed. Possibly ESPN2? Since the game is a "neutral" site in Indianapolis could it land on the Big Ten Network?

B1GN or even Fox.

I'm a bit surprised this was not announced on ESPN or ESPN2

If it's considered a Purdue home game then Fox/B1GN would have first rights I believe.

Actually, it would go into the pool of games that weekend and either Fox or ESPN could pick it (or if neither wants it, it goes to BTN).

Good points!

BTW, I think more schedule is coming out today.

From ACCFootballRx: Week 1, 2017 TV Schedule Factoid

Some interesting things are starting to come out about the schedule for opening week...

Visiting Team - Home Team ---- Time(ET) - Nat'l TV

Thursday, August 31
Presbyterian -- Wake Forest -- TBD ------ TBD

Friday, September 1
Boston College - N Illinois -- TBD ------ CBSSN

Saturday, September 2
Louisville ----- Purdue ------ TBD ------ TBD (Indianapolis)
NC Central ----- Duke -------- TBD ------ TBD
Bethune-Cookman - Miami ------- TBD ------ TBD
Youngstown St -- Pittsburgh -- TBD ------ TBD
California ----- N Carolina -- TBD ------ TBD
Wm & Mary ------ Virginia ---- TBD ------ TBD
Kent State ----- Clemson ----- 12:00PM -- ESPN
S Carolina ----- NC State ---- 3:00PM --- ESPN (Charlotte)
Temple --------- Notre Dame -- 3:30PM --- NBC
Alabama -------- Florida St -- 8:00PM --- ABC (Atlanta)

Sunday, September 3
W Virginia ----- Virginia Tech 7:30PM --- ABC (DC)

Monday, September 4
Tennessee ------ Georgia Tech 8:00PM --- ESPN (Atlanta)

Besides the fact that so many ACC games are on national TV, notice the big-time neutral site games: except for Louisville vs. Purdue, they are all under the ACC TV contract. ESPN lists NC State (vs. S Carolina), Florida State (vs. Alabama), Virginia Tech (vs. W Virginia) and Georgia Tech (vs. Tennessee) as the "home" team in all four of those games.

What does all that mean? For one thing, it means count the TV ratings for those games under the ACC's TV contract. So when Disney audits ESPN's books, they see good value for ACC football. But Disney won't be the only one taking a look -- when ESPN goes to sell the ACC Network to cable providers, you can be sure the Worldwide Leader in Sports will use these ratings to help sell it.

8:00 PM Florida St. v. Alabama ABC

All eyes on us...

These will either be glorious victories or embarrassing defeats. No quarter sought, none given.
