CBS Announces First "Games of the Week"

[bamawriter]

First CBS game will be Bama @ A&M in Week 3.

Other confirmed games:

Nov. 2 UGA vs UF
Nov. 9 LSU @ Bama (primetime)
Nov. 29 Ark @ LSU

Very good chance that CBS carries UT @ UF in week 4.

Auburn @ LSU is the only other game.

I'm all for games at night so don't care about the primetime slot.

I can't believe CBS didn't make the Bama vs. aTm the 8 o clock game for the season.

I thought that same thing.

But their primetime slot is, contractually, part of a double header. The only other games that weekend are MSU @ Auburn and Vandy @ USCe. Blecch. November 9th and October 19th are much better slates for airing two games.

CBS games=automatic loss for UT in the last 5-6 years.

2:30 kickoff in College Station in early September? Yikes. It'll feel like the gates of Hell just opened up in that place with the heat.

And since I'll be there, I wouldn't have it any other way.

If I remember correct, whenever CBS does a primetime game they must do a double header. If they indeed are having Bama v. LSU on Nov. during primetime, our game against Auburn that day might be the early game in the double header. The other options that day are

Florida v. Vandy (unlikely)
Mizzou v. UK (highly unlikely)
Arkansas v. Ole Miss (possible)
Miss St. v. A&M (possible)

Depending how Ole Miss and Arky are playing at that point in the season, I see our game against Auburn as the second best SEC game that week, that is of course if we haven't had another 0 for October.

For us, the coin toss = automatic loss in big games the past 3 years.

I think it has more to do with us sucking at playing football the last 5-6 years.
