Here are my thoughts and please correct me if I am wrong.

In past years, I thought every team had to play at least 1 game on JP which is now Raycom. I think I remember hearing that this changed this past year. The new deal is that they would "like" each team to play on Raycom at least once a year.

The reason I want clarification is because if LSU doesn't play USC on Raycom 2 weeks from now they probably won't play on Raycom. This is exactly what I want and I am wondering if this is at all possible.

I'm thinking it is since the picking of the game that week has been delayed and is up in the air as to which stations will get which games.

I think the hold is to figure out which game ESPN would pick up if LSU is passed on by CBS. CBS may want Raycom to get the LSU game but doesn't know how to make that happen between the games and the potential for Vandy to screw up this weekend.

every team has to play atleast one game if asked. Raycom does not have to choose your school to play.

I think Raycom is gone next year. The SEC signed a ridiculous contract with ESPN for the secondary games (after CBS). I believe it starts next season. All games not covered by CBS will be shown on one of the empire's channels, ESPN, 2, U, Classic, and the Ocho.

That is right... This is Raycom's last year. We will be on ESPN/ESPN2 at 11:00 next year rather than Raycom at 11:30.
