How will CBS handle showing the Masters and BAMA vs LSU game. I know a lot of people think UGA at Bama gets the SEC/CBS night game of the year. Do we get Two SEC nights games because of the masters?

CBS will do whatever Augusta National tells them to do that weekend. Alabama-LSU may wind up on SEC Network.

Masters coverage all day, then LSU / Bama at night sounds like a good scenario for CBS. Masters will have to wrap up earlier than usual because the days will be shorter in November. Should leave plenty of time before a 7PM kick.

Makes sense to not sell the game to ESPN and just have a 830pm kickoff.

Wow. We get to watch former Alabama national title winner Justin Thomas win his first Masters, then tune into Alabama dominating LSU in Baton Rouge. What a fantastic weekend it will be.

CBS has proven on a few occasions that Bama/LSU means nothing to them.

I want another 230 cbs sec game of the week. We play better in that slot.

Looks like my TV will be glued to CBS for 12-15 hours.

Masters all day then LSU BAMA at night is goddamn Heaven

LSU/Bama will be a night game. Masters cannot be played at night. Problem solved.

I could see something being worked out that CBS gets to move their 2:30 game to the primetime slot that week in exchange for ESPN getting first pick another week excluding maybe 1 or 2 games, much like what happened in 2011.
Give ESPN the first pick of Week 2, giving them Auburn/UGA, leaving CBS Texas A&M/Alabama. I think both parties would be amenable to something like that.

Will the Masters get as many viewers as an LSU-Alabama matchup, which is one of the most watched football games every season? I’m not sure of golf viewership but I do usually watch the Masters, so if there’s a lot of people like me I could understand if it WAS higher.
