Alleva put this on LSUSports.net earlier today. Didn't see it here so sorry if Germans.

It seems he may have come through with the whole night games issue.


quote:

Through these conversations there has developed an understanding that CBS, ESPN and all its platforms will recognize the importance of LSU home night games in their scheduling process with assurances that every effort will be made to maximize the number of LSU home games at night. For example, CBS has agreed to limit the number of games played in their afternoon window. And I can assure you that the SEC Network will enhance LSU’s tradition of playing games at night in Tiger Stadium.


whole thing

Exactly, I don't see national networks catering to LSUs want for more night games.

All he did was get us every home game at night every year except Alabama (if cbs chooses another game for primetime) and Florida will be cbs games yearly.

Directv will have the sec network before the first game.
If they don't, you will be getting nfl sunday ticket for free.

I'll believe it when I see it. The SEC rarely looks out for our best interests.

What I hear is "Sure Joe, well think about LSU's night game tradition when doing our scheduling. Then do whatever the frick we want."



Yay for getting taken for a sucker.

Good. That way the nation won't see our fans not show up for games like our fans did against Florida last season.

Let me get this straight, for two years fans have bitched about playing too many day games and said Alleva needed to stand up to the SEC and CBS.

Ostensibly he has now done that, and people are bitching that it was either not by his own doing, merely lip service from the networks, or are pissed that he forfeited nationally televised prime time broadcasts?
