Notre Dame should not be part of this chart due to their separate contract, period, full stop.

As others have said, when we get pushed to the CW I am pretty sure we get worse numbers than even the ACC channel.

It's a two-way street though; when we (VT) are ass and we play Notre Dame, we don't get put on the CW, we get put on ESPN or at least ACCN Primetime. And that increases our viewership numbers.

Until ND is a FULL member of the conference they should absolutely jack shit of a say in anything related to revenue distribution or TV time related to football. Unfortunately we need them WAY more than they need us.

YES AND... Shane's actual name (Shane Beamer) anagrams to:

  • Rehab Seamen
  • Ease Barn Hem
  • Bees Hear Man
  • Ah Bare Semen
  • A Sham Beener
  • Beam Hen Ares (the Greek god hangs out with poultry)
  • Bean Rhea Mes (a confused bird and beans)
  • Her Mean Base
  • Sheer Aba Men

Mullen/Franklin are 1a/1b - I don't think we can land them though
Huff is 2 for me
Helton is 3.

I think Helton has a lower floor than any of the other 3, but I just like his eye for assistant talent. Also, I just want offense to be fun in Blacksburg. It just hasn't happened in ages.

Will it though? Im worried it wont be as drastic an increase as we are assuming.

Yes, Clemson/FSU/Miami will always have an advantage HOWEVER that advantage appears more stark because Clemson and FSU have both had playoff runs in the last five years. Clemson's viewership has been dropping since 2022. In 2024, they were passed by GT. FSU viewership was cut in half from 2023 (playoff run) to 2024 (2-10 LOL)

Why is notre dame even in this. Of course they'll be number one every single one of their games in on TV. Do they still have that tv contract with NBC? The ACC should be investigated for fraud and negligence for not forcing Noter Dame football as a full ACC member. Join or go kick rocks.

Notre Damn viewership is kinda irrelevant. They only get paid out for games played on the road at ACC teams. So in the past, if there 200 home games played at ACC stadiums, the average revenue for each game would be calculated, and ND would get paid 3 games worth. Now, I imagine (but don't know for fact) that ND will get paid based on how much revenue those games bring in.
