Probably a dumb question, but the ACC network is supposed

to debut this fall. So, what's the difference between this new ACC network, and the ACC network that the Clemson women are playing on right now, and the numerous other ACC network games we have see the past few years?

So, other than the games, we should have the other stuff. Hopefully, programming that's better than some of the SEC stuff, like Finebum,

It is a dedicated, linear cable network.

The current model is a hybrid syndicated broadcast network, in which the ACC has sold the rights to their tier 1, 2 & 3 rights. ESPN retains the tier 1 games to be broadcast on their family of linear channels (with their in-house production) and sells the tier 2 games to syndication partners Raycom & Fox Sports Net (RSN) - who are responsible for their production and sale of distribution. Tier 3 is currently broadcast on the ACC Plus digital platform (prior to the announcement of the ACC Network, each institution had their own tier 3 deal).
The new model will house all tier 2 & 3 games on a linear network that is a partnership between the conference and ESPN - with tier 3 content still largely streamed over ACC Plus. Each of the schools have had to invest (anywhere from $7MM to $11MM) in on-campus broadcast centers, with a minimum of 4 live control rooms (to allow for the broadcast of 2 simultaneous events, as well as give the capability to run the feeds for the in-stadium broadcast), each with the ability to process HD feeds. All of these mandatory minimums were born out of the SEC Network's experience - as there are schools that still don't have full HD capabilities. ESPN has stated that having the infrastructure in place, allows for their teams to add more extras to a broadcast - because they are constantly moving in a truck(s) for the nuts and bolts of the standard broadcast.

all ACC football games will be broadcast somehow on a cable network through some combination of espn, the Raycom/RSN combo (Which I figure will be the ACC Network) and some type of ACC alternate? That would be for the FCS games like the SEC shows, but at least it would still be on tv instead of having to sit at the computer to watch it. Thanks for any insight.

I would like to think they will have 21st century technology. Now that we're used to HD, the picture on the current ACC network sometimes looks like something from the 70's.

After waiting an entire lifetime to watch clemson football on regular TV every Saturday those without tickets will now have to subscribe to the channel. That’s the whole of the sum
