It's not like it was some "ND gets special privileges" decision.


TV networks are for profit businesses, it has nothing to do with privilege they are going to go with a game they think will give them good ratings and be an exciting game. They have to make a call before the season so they have limited information since they can’t possibly know who will be the best teams. They didn’t pick the 2011 LSU-Bama game initially either, but made some concessions with ESPN to move it. Who plays at 730 once a year on CBS is not some special honor to be reserved for the “best” teams, that’s the playoff. It’s not that big a deal and frankly if it’s not an LSU home game I’d rather it be early.

That makes it a little better, but not by much.

Why the hell would anyone get married on a Saturday night in the Fall unless they scheduled the wedding around the Bye Week.

For DAMN sure wouldn't schedule a wedding on Alabama weekend!

If you need motivation to watch the Bama LSU game, at any time, in any year, then you shouldn't be posting here.

For 2020 there’s 3 options for CBS IMO

Sept 12 Texas @ LSU
Sept 19 UGA @ ALA
Nov 7 ALA @ LSU


These are three very attractive options. It's anyone's guess which they will choose. I'm leaning towards Bama/LSU due to the ratings this year.
