re: I'm sick of CBS...how can we save our night games?

I actually liked that when he said Louisiana State university this weekednd. I think people forget what that L stands for.

It didn't work out too well this year, but remember that LSU didn't play any day games last year. Hopefully they'll get the CBS Primetime game next year.

What about calling Kelvin Shepard Russell Shepard. He did that like 2 times this year.

Who decided that 2:30 central was the optimum time for "big games" to be played? I would much rather watch the more significant games each weak played in a prime time slot like 4:30pm or 6pm. I'm sure there has to be something tied to ratings or whatever, but as a fan it seems to carry more weight in that time slot. I.E. the Saints/Steelers prime time matchup Halloween night. If that game was at 2:30 would have been just meh.

Leave the SEC for CUSA and have a consistantly irrelevent program.

I get the love for night games, but honestly, bitching about "having" to play on national network TV multiple times a year is just pathetic and makes our fans sound like spoiled children.

I'd love to see national Neilson Ratings on CBS' afternoon games versus the night games they decide to air. Does viewership drop off that much to make televising a night game so unattractice to them?

Need a ton of purple game day shirts with gold lettering that reads "2:30 Sucks" and then let CBS get some crowd shots of them during the game.

Yeah great idea, oppenly descent about playing against top competion on national network TV, as if it's a burden. It's a problem every team not named Notre Dame would love to have.

The networks look at the country as a whole. College football is obviously huge in the south, but not necessarily througout the entire nation, especially in the large cities. 2:30 on a Saturday afternoon is probably the optimal time, as many people go out to eat, to movies, bars, etc. on Saturday nights. A Sunday night NFL game is different, most people are at home because they have to go to work the next day.

Great voice, but I think its time to stick to the 17th hole at the Masters.
