Yeah. Same crew...but perhaps different producer

The reason I say that is that Oliver was much more in tune with the game at hand than he was last year. I found him dismissive of VT and any teams other than GT and the Blues last year. Maybe I just caught him on one of my good days. And Good riddance, RSN.

My first look at ACC basketball was a WF/Md. game in 1962. At that time,

Been saying this for years. ESPN is not getting it done anymore.**

ESPN doesn't give a crap about the ACC. Sad but true.**

Their score/crawler/ads bar at the bottom of their screen *really* bugs me.

Brilliant use of cardboard!**
Newt • 12/09/23 06:42 PM ET
Agreed. Any idea why CW has this (and the Duke) game?**
vtbball80 • 12/09/23 02:49 PM ET
because the CW took over broadcast rights once RSN thankfully went bankrupt**
