First things first: Check the Date (Seriously, We've All Been There)

Xfinity's Hurricane Haven: Your Channel Conquest Begins
Alright, schedule confirmed? Excellent. Now it's time to navigate the labyrinthine world of Xfinity channels. Here's where things get exciting (and maybe a touch technical, but hey, you got this!):
The ACC Network: Your Likely Landing Spot The Miami Hurricanes are proud members of the Atlantic Coast Conference, and the ACC Network is your prime suspect for most games. Fire up the Xfinity guide and look for channel 1325 (or wherever the ACC Network resides in your specific Xfinity jungle).
Alternative Realities: When the ACC Network Goes Rogue There's a chance, however slim, that the game might be broadcast elsewhere. Here's a quick rundown of other possibilities:
- ESPN (channels vary): For nationally televised games, ESPN or one of its many siblings (ESPN2, ESPNU) might be your destination.
- ABC (usually channel 4): If it's a big rivalry or a major conference matchup, ABC could be showing the game.
