Assuming every team is undefeated, is Gameday going to Bama/Ole Miss or Florida/LSU?

Trying to be unbiased I say they come to LSU. We're Florida's biggest game of the year, Saturday night, Death Valley...cant really beat it.

But then again how do you beat #3 vs #4? thoughts?

My thoughts are like this: Gameday or not, that will be one electric atmosphere like it was in 06. I could care less what city Lee Corso puts his makeup on in. As long as I'm in BR on Saturday Oct 10th.

I would however like to know what hotel the gameday crew will be in as I want to get a voyeuristic video of Lee walking around naked. Shhhhh. Don't tell anyone.

Hasn't Gameday being going to the Sat Night ABC game every week? If this trend continues we will never get Gameday.

If LSU beats Georgia, there is no question that LSU-Florida will be a CBS primetime game and that ESPN GameDay will be here ... take it to the bank.

Not nearly as many people nationally care about Bama-Ole Miss.

We should know for sure if the LSU vs UF game is a night one the Monday after the Miss State game. Doesn't CBS have to pick these things 2 weeks in advance?

Does LSU/Florida 2007 ring a bell. Nighttime on CBS but Gameday still came. This year will be the same situation.

#3 Alabama vs. #4 Ole Miss

or

#1 Florida vs. #5 LSU

I like our chances.

Hold on there everybody. 2 things to remember.

1. Herbstreit has said that he has ALWAYS wanted to go to the Grove. Gameday has yet to go there.

2. CBS......yes......the evil sinister night game stealing CBS. They play a huge role in this as THEY GET FIRST PICK over which game they want. No matter what the Florida game is a nite game regardless of who covers it.

Im sure ESPN/ABC will go with the other game not being covered. This poses a ratings problem because if CBS picks the Florida game, that means Ole Miss/Bama will be primetime as well. Neither networks want to split the viewing maximum audience.

In an ideal scenario CBS picks the Bama game. BUT.........history has shown that CBS LOVES to put us on in the daytime.

Ur dum. Both Bama/Ole Miss and LSU/Florida will be on CBS. Bama/Ole Miss at 2:30, LSU/Florida at 7:30.

No, LSU/UF is going to be on CBS at 7pm.

And Bama/Ole Miss might even be at 3:30 on CBS. Don't they do a double header every year on this date?
