ESPN used the six-day option for Georgia Tech’s November 11 game against Virginia Tech to delay the assignment of a kickoff time and broadcast outlet. All six of the ACC-controlled games scheduled for that day are under the six-day hold.

The kickoff time and the television outlet will be determined following this Saturday’s games. Tech will play Virginia at 3 p.m. in Charlottesville, Va. The game will be broadcast on regional sports networks, including Fox Sports South in metropolitan Atlanta.
