LSU vs. Alabama Will Not Play At Night On CBS This Upcoming Season

by Staff Reporter

May 29, 201948 Comments

John David Mercer-USA TODAY Sports

LSU and Alabama's streak of playing eight-straight primetime games on CBS against each other will come to an end in 2019, according to an early SEC schedule from the network.

The annual matchup between the Tigers and the Crimson Tide is set for Saturday, November 9 in Tuscaloosa but CBS does not have a doubleheader day and night game scheduled on that date.

CBS would get first pick at selecting LSU-Alabama for their day game on Nov. 9 or it could be a night game on another network.

The last time LSU played Alabama during the day was 2010 in Baton Rouge when the Tigers beat the Crimson Tide 24-21.

Good. Stop overhyping this shite

cctiger89•59 months

LSU may have not won in recent times but to say it's overhyped is a little overboard. Provide facts to your statement. It's still a highly recognized matchup.

Tiger Prawn•59 months

I assume CBS wants their one night game a year to be Notre Dame vs Georiga on 9/21 with the Florida-Tennessee game in the 2:30 slot that day.

El Campo Tiger•59 months

Good. This is no longer a rivalry.

Nix to Twillie•59 months

It is. (When's the last time Michigan beat Ohio State--is that not a rivalry anymore?) But I agree with it being moved to a day game. We haven't earned keeping it at night.

Ripley•59 months

Yeah but Ohio St vs Mich games are actually close.

El Campo Tiger•59 months

Nope. That’s not a rivalry game either.

Ripley•59 months

Good

Thank God. Should have stopped this a while ago.

lsutigersFTW•59 months

As long as it’s at 7 pm next year, I don’t care

lil 7thward•59 months

Agreed

voodooidotwo•59 months

This will change when both teams are undefeated

stho381•59 months

It's because it's in Tuscaloosa. No one cares about Saturday night in Tuscaloosa.

JackieTreehorn•59 months

It's because LSU hasn't won since the middle of Obama's first term in office.

Froman•59 months

For real. Nothing exciting about Saturday Night in Tuscaloosa.

CherryConstant•59 months

Because frick alabama. Noone gives a shite.

Eriq Killmonger•59 months

That following season we also went on to beat Bama in Ttown giving us a 2 game win streak. Its happening this is a sign of the #tIncline

Stingy•59 months

Let's hope the media and fans don't hype this game up like every other year. Until LSU wins a few of these games it should be treated as just another SEC game.

BugAC•59 months

Great. CBS games are insufferable.

Slevin7•59 months

Hooray day drunk!

LSU316•59 months

Easily the best news if the day.

JackieTreehorn•59 months

Not really a primetime game when the same team wins every single year.

barry•59 months

I want to downvote, but i can't.

southsidedell•59 months
