• Industry-Leading 60 Game Schedule

ABC’s Saturday Night Football Presented by Wells Fargo airs an ACC showdown between No. 3 Clemson and No. 14 Louisville (8 p.m. ET) to highlight ESPN’s industry-leading 60-game college football week 3 schedule. Chris Fowler, Kirk Herbstreit and Maria Taylor will be at Papa John’s Cardinal Stadium to call the third consecutive SNF game featuring both a matchup of ranked teams and a top 3 team.  College GameDay Built by the Home Depot (9 a.m. – noon) will also be onsite, the premier pregame show’s second consecutive year televising from the school.

***Week 3 Schedule Changes Due to Hurricane Irma***
The aforementioned Clemson-Louisville matchup was originally scheduled for 3:30 p.m., with Miami at Florida State airing at 8 p.m.  However, the Miami-FSU game was postponed due to Hurricane Irma and has been rescheduled for Saturday, October 7. As a result, the Tigers-Cardinals game shifted to 8 p.m. and Notre Dame at Boston College shifted from noon to 3:30 p.m. remaining on ESPN.  Additionally, Georgia Tech at UCF, scheduled for 7:30 p.m. on Sept. 16 on ESPNEWS, has been canceled. A number of other network designations also changed. See below for a full week 3 schedule on ESPN’s Networks.
