Any chance they move it to the primetime slot that Saturday night?

CBS only does ONE primetime game at night a year. It will be at 2:30pm

100%. CBS only has 1 primetime game a year..it's been used. CBS has first pick of every SEC matchup, that will no doubt be the game.

CBS has the right to pick up the game. They are allowed 2 7 oclock games per season. alabama vs florida was one. Cant remember if they have used their other slot or not yet.

They can change anything if they want to. I would tend to believe it's going to be 2:30 though.

No. A few years back the Bama game started @ 4-something but I don't remember why or how they pulled that off with a 2:30 game. I just don't see how this thing kicks off at any other time other than 2:30.

They could easily move this game back a few hours if they really want to.

I'm assuming there's no possible way ESPN/ABC could pick this up. Is that correct?

You'd have to understand how tv programming works, which I'm assuming you don't.

This cannot be denied. If enough $$$/Ratings is on the line, they will find a way. Trust me on this...
