We will be in Athens as well to participate in all the pregame festivities. I guess my husband will drag me to the "Dawg Walk" as well. Maybe we will luck up and find some tickets up there. I really hope to find some in the bama section, advantage for me!

IF I'm not mistaken, this game was picked up by ESPN before the season even kicked off...it was one of their two pre-season picks. (LSU v AU as the other)

But if you leave now! You will be here a few days before......if that happens the beer will be gone before the game starts!!

Will this be on ESPN, or will it be football on ABC as presented by ESPN like the Clemson game?

I don't have cable right now, just hi def OTA broadcast, so if its only on ESPN, I may have to call my cable company quick!

ESPN's web site has never been on that is an accurate gauge on what they own network is going to broadcast. Heck, SECSports.com is about as bad and has a better track record than ESPN.

All that said, when ESPN makes their pre-season selections if the game they choose ends up being one where you have two teams that are just horrible they have the right to not televise that game. That may be why it's not listed as of now...

GameDay? Don't know. IF so, it would be two Bama games this year and back to back SEC games as well. So, seems a little unlikely to me.

BUT, there really aren't any other major games that weekend save one, Penn State vs the Illini.

As 'Bamabass indicated, I believe it is just going to be on ESPN solely.

Alabama at Georgia 6:45 p.m. ESPN (HD)

Nah, you're thinking of the night game in '94 (Barker vs. Zeier). We came to Athens in '95 in the day and beat them 31-0. I'll actually take either scenario though.
