If you're saying ESPN will have their top game in primetime, the LSU-Bama game Saturday would have been at 2:30. Georgia-Tennesee was the biggest game.

I apologize for bringing this up again, but Beth mowens is lurking in the espn shadows. It's only a matter of time before we suffer thru that.

Hate to tell y'all but ESPN-ABC wants a BIG SEC game in the 12 noon ET window every week (along with 2:30 and 7pm). It's gonna be MORE 11am kicks for LSU instead of more night games.

You're right. The new ESPN contract will mean more 11:00 games for LSU. They'll want to compete with Fox for that early spot to start the day.

Fox has most of their really valuable games in that time slot (Texas-Oklahoma, Ohio State-Michigan, Alabama-Texas this year).

ESPN will have their three biggest SEC games at 11:00, 2: 30 and 6:00 Central Time. LSU will definitely get its share of the 11:00 games.
