re: LSU A&M Future Games/Dates/TV Coverage

The SEC has a series of contracts that prevents LSU from playing all its games at night. Just deal with it. It's ok.

What hes saying is this argument is no longer valid if ESPN broadcasts this game.

TAMU requesting the thanksgiving night game essentially takes away CBS' traditional friday 1:30 matchup and it forces a prime SEC game into ESPN television.

This is the same thing as if LSU requested 1 marquee home SEC night game a year. It would essentially force either CBS to use their once a year primetime slot on that game or save it and let ESPN have that coverage.
