Thursday night college football has been a staple on ESPN for more than two decades, with games regularly involving ranked teams. The Atlantic Coast Conference and the Big East were among the first conferences to embrace the idea of playing televised games on Thursday nights as a way to shine a spotlight on their leagues.
ESPN's most viewed Thursday night game is No. 3 Texas' 49-39 victory against Texas A&M on Thanksgiving 2009. Second was USC-Oregon State in September 2008,Wholesale China Jerseys, a memorable upset of the top-ranked Trojans.
