After LSU's and A&M's losses last week, I'm wondering if ABC is wishing they'd flipped the UT-UT game and the TAMU-LSU game start times...

LSU at night.........and the beat goes on.

I'm sure they wished they could switch the game time now.  Knoxville is (and has been) up in arms about it since the announcement of a nooner way back when.

Even the 2:30 slot would be much more preferable.  Apparently the networks thought Chokelahoma was going to be good as well.

To be fair, no one really knew what to make of TN, with a freshman QB, and coming off a mediocre season.  Guess what?  I still don't know what to make of TN.

Horns by 10.

For ABC/Disney 11 AM is the next most preferable timeslot after primetime, they consider 11 AM to be a "national" game while  2:30 is for regional games.

They considered this past week's UGA curb stomping of Arky "national", and Bama / FSU "regional" ?  Interesting choice.

I've read the same -- competing with FOX Big Noon.  I guess in week 2 the TAM/Az St. game fit the bill.

Anyway, I don't like it.  The SEC for 25 years had their big game at 2:30, and I came to love that slot.  CBS royally screwed the pooch letting the SEC get away.
