COLLEGE PARK, Md. - The 'Ralph Friedgen TV Show' will air tonight at 7:00 p.m. on Comcast SportsNet as opposed to its normal 11:00 p.m. slot. The decision to move the show was to better accomodate fans who may be watching Major League Baseball's Championship Series which is slated to air from 8:00 p.m. to approximately 11:00 p.m.

The Terrapins take on NC State this weekend on ABC which has regional coverage of Homecoming 2004 starting at 3:30 p.m. The following week, the Terps head to Clemson to take on the Tigers at Noon. Television coverage will come from JP Sports.
