Possible. Be careful what you ask for tiger fans.


Indeed. Look at can be annoying but I really don't see it as a slight to LSU. We get paid to for that time slot. The games are on every TV in every bar/restaurant in America at that time.

We start becoming less "desirable" it's boom or bust--11 am or night.

2:30 is just fine.

Here is Bama's SEC Schedule:
@ atm 2:30 CBS
vs. Ole Miss 5:30 ESPN
@ Kentucky 6 ESPN
vs Arkansas 6 ESPN
vs Tennessee 2:30 CBS
vs LSU 7 PM CBS
@ MSU 6:45 ESPN
@ Auburn 2:30 CBS

That's where we want to be, right? No 11 games, max exposure. Well, 1/2 of their games are on CBS, 3/8 at 2:30.

I'm gonna try to turn the tables on you using your own line of argumentation - if we want as much exposure as Bama is getting, then note that 3/4 of their home games this year were at night (I'm counting the 5:30 OM game at night - late enough for me in this day & time).

My point in the OP is that we would get the same exposure across the season - it's that the daytime exposure is from the away games and the nighttime exposure from home games.

One way to help make this happen is to get our home games scheduled opposite other marquee SEC matchups.

As for exposure, my guess is that there are more serious CFB fans watching at night than during the day and how cool is it to turn on CFB at night with TS going crazy?
