    The Observer reports that Florida State is talking with Miami and ABC about a three-year deal to play on Labor Day. The first would be on September 6, 2004, the Hurricanes' first in the ACC.

    Now that's the way to begin viewing the college football season!

    of course they want to play early. easy to make up the loss one of them is going to get.

    Exactly Dave. At least they can agree on that much. And both schools would rape (no, not reap) a good payday from ABC for the game too.

    even bigger audience than the usual game date since that's a week before the NFL opens.

    makes sense to move it up since one or both are usually in the nat'l title hunt. a loss in september doesn't hurt you nearly as much as a loss in november.
