Why doesn't ESPN force OSU/Mich to play in primetime?

Whip is this the only game that never has to move ever for television? No way they don't want this in front of a primetime audience.
For literally every other team in America, you have to play when ESPN and CBS tell you when you play.
No way ESPN wants this game at 11 while they have to settle for FSU/Florida in primetime. What makes them so special?

The president of ESPN had a threeway with Urban Meyer and Jim Harbaugh

Maybe because of questionable weather?

Temperature is not a factor

LSU just hired a binder. Get your mind right son.

Because Ohio State and Michigan have balls and a commissioner who respects tradition to go to bat for them.

When did W Michigan play yesterday?
It's at 11 every year. I think the only year it wasn't was 2006 when they were 1&2. They played at 2:30 that year.

Fans used to jump in a freezing lake before the game. I don't think temp would damper the atmosphere at all

Because they can't force them to do shite.

This game should be played at high noon every year

I was joking.
I'd love for them to play at night - I love watching cold weather games.

Gotcha.

Can't blame cold on this. They'll be playing high school football games in the same stadium three nights in a row next week. It really is more about the tradition of it. Plus I think ESPN probably likes spreading out the big games on rivalry Saturday.

That's not true, it would have been televised.

Bingo. Kudos to them. I love that this game is at 11am.
Posted on 11/26/16 at 10:51 am to lsutigers1992
2006 was moved from 12 and started at 3:30 eastern.

I think it was 2:30 eastern if I recall correctly. Not positive though.
