re: CBS picks up Auburn - LSU, 2:30 pm

LSU must not have anyone that can negotiate with whomever makes this pick for CBS.

Of course we don't. Do you not really know how this works?

Do you want to be this good or do you want more night games. You can't have both.

'07. UF and AU. We were pretty good that year.

we all miss the heavy drinking at nite, but, good gaud, maybe that is what was killing us for 50 years.

Do you even know what the frick you are talking about?

Since 1960, LSU is 201–59–3 (.773) at night in Tiger Stadium compared to a 20–22–3 (.476) record during the day over that span.

I know this is the "price of success" and all things being equal, I'd rather LSU be in this much demand b/c they are good than have all night games and be mediocre; however, I do hope that the next contract will allow for a little more "voice" from the individual schools about game times.

And obviously we're valued more now than we were then. Not to mention the UF game was the CBS first pick. Like I said, we'll have one next year for Bama.

GODDAMNIT!

I frickING HATE VERN AND GARY!

The current CBS contract with the SEC runs through 2023, it could and probably will be revisited when A&M and whomever else comes into the league

It's become apparent to me that LSU has absolutley zero say so or influence on when these games get played.

Something that should have been known by now.

CBS used their one option to move a game to 7 for the Florida game. AU was on ESPN because CBS picked Florida vs Kentucky game over ours after we came off a loss to Kentucky

TIGERLEE, make sense of this statement then.
