It's a Saturday, unlike having to travel on a Sunday why is the game being cut to 7 innings? Also why can't they play past 11am if the game is tied?(2nd game) if it goes past 11am just move game 3 back a little, right? Having trouble understanding this one. Is this some sort of SEC ruling?

SEC Rule. Thurs-Sat series are treated like Fri-Sun series as far as time period is concerned.

Does A&M have finals next week. That might have something to do with it.

ESPN hates LSU brah. Noon is the scheduled start time for game 3 so that's when it will be played.

Still doesn't make sense to only play a 7 inning game. Stupid rule. If you have the ability based on time to play 9 why not. I can understand if its a Sunday and time won't allow it but if time is no factor play the normal fricking game.

nope. They said last night that A&M finals were last week like LSU

So both teams are done with school for the year.

They are trying everything to help accomodate the first year SEC member.
