I know we have some time until an official time is released, but is there any chance it’s an 11am game? Or are we looking at 230 or later?

No chance for 11 AM

2:30-3:30 or night game 5-7pm

I’d say 2:30

Looks like the best SEC game of the week. There is also
Mizzou @ Bama
OU @ Ole Miss

If lsu wins this weekend, I would say 6:30.

I don't think you can say "no chance". Last week Mizzou v. A&M was the only matchup of ranked teams in the country. KO was at 11:00 am.

We as SEC fans have conditioned ourselves to believe that the best game = 2:30 or (sometimes, a night game). I don't think ABC/ESPN sees it like that 100% of the time.

I think you are right it is likely an afternoon or night game. But we can't be 100% sure. Particularly if LSU loses one or two of their next two games.

If both teams are 6-1 then it very well could be a prime time game on ABC at 6:30-7pm

It has already been decided it isn’t 11:00am. It’s between 2-7.

Yes you can. It’s been given the “Flex” window.

Kickoff will be somewhere between 2:30-7PM

genuinely curious, is abc\espn carrying the same preference for the 2:30 slot like cbs did? seems like some big games have been at night.

Schedule for that week and the time slots that have been announced

Arkansas Mississippi State Early

Oklahoma Ole Miss Early

Texas Vanderbilt Afternoon

Mizzou Alabama Flex

LSU A&M Flex

Auburn Kentucky Night


So it's 2:30 or 6:30 ABC. Beat Ole Miss and we're definitely the night slot. But I think we probably get the night slot either way over Mizzou/Bama

They put the best game in the ABC prime time slot. ND/A&M, Bama/UGA, Ole Miss/LSU, UGA/Texas have all gone in the 6:30 ABC.

Not sure about that. I’d argue OU/Texas is biggest game this week at 2:30

Herbstreit & Fowler calling the game

ETA: maybe that’s an outlier

Surprised they gave OU/Ole Miss the early slot. If that’s the case, then yeah I’d give LSU/A&M the night game

My intuition says it'll be a 6:30 kickoff. If you guys beat Ole Miss and Arkansas, and we beat MS State, it'll be a huge game, and they'll want it in the night slot.

It is right there on LSUSports.net. Weird how people keep asking these questions.
