🏈 LSU vs Bama kickoff time

[Argo]

CBS: 3:30pm eastern

I swear, I hate CBS. I'd give ANYTHING for ANYONE ELSE to buy this contract.

Well since I can't get Eli Gold locally, that gives me two weeks to hook my laptop into my surround system with the TV on mute. Sucks though because they won't be anything close to synchronized.

 

[BamaDelta]

I'm thrilled because I won't have to be up til the wee hours getting back to the hotel in B'ham. Plus, it will be warmer than a night game. :smile:

Exactly

 

[Brandon Van de Graaff]

It would be nice if ESPN got first pick... the good news is, other than the game with auburn that is set for CBS, this will almost certainly be the last time we have to play on there during the regular season.

Actually enjoyed their other crew (Beurlein and ????) when they did the Ole Miss game. Too bad we're stuck with Dumb and Dumber.

Yes, the drive is much better after a 3:30 game. The traffic over might be a bit better since our competition is west of Tuscaloosa, too. Plus, you'll be well rested from sitting during all of those CBS TV timeouts.

Its much nicer being able to drive back to Bessemer, and have dinner and it not be 2 am.

If they got rid of Danielson, I would not hate the CBS draw. If I could just find a way to match Eli and my HD signal to the same moment in time, how sweet it would be. Do you think we could send in enough votes to CBS to make a difference????

You're assuming all make the same drive as you. Some must overnight after night games. Some overnight before day games. And some who travel long distances like myself must overnight before and after. I suspect that a "mid day" game would maximize people's ability to travel both before and after the game, which would make the traffic the worst.

I'm glad its 2:30 game, I have to go somewhere, hopefully the game goes a little faster then usual

Games on CBS never go faster than usual.

They'll have plenty of extra commercials waiting to play if there is any danger of the game ending early. :smile:

 

[ElephantStomp]

Dumb and Dumber ruin any chance of CBS being decent. That's my only problem with CBS is Danielson and Verne are absolutely horrible at calling anything close to a decent game. When you confuse Alabama and Auburn you have to know you're an idiot.

MSU still has a shot for the 11:00 CBS kick (2 games for CBS)

Aub/Uga and Tenn/Ole Miss are the other 2 possibles. Anything can happen with those 4 teams til then. (UF/SC would be the 2nd game im certain)

You do not want your games on the mtn. They could never afford the rights to SEC football, but they can't afford anything more than high school-level cameras, either.

I can't wait to hear vern , say auburn 8 and 0 what a joke
