I thought ESPN was showing a different Friday night SEC game every week now for the last few years? Why wouldn't they show tomorrow's?

And if they have other plans, somebody please explain why CST can't get a crew up there? They aren't even showing their standard Sunday game.

At least Saturday is on tv.

Because the University of Alabama has determined baseball is not a sport.
Therefore not worthy of television.

Those have been on Thursday nights. The Thursday night package starts in a couple of weeks.

You really don't know how TV works do you? You think someone can snap their fingers a couple of days in advance and a crew magically shows up at a venue? And the airtime magically becomes available? You do know that TV networks plan their programming more then 2 days in advance, right?

It is tournament time after all. Baseball is an after thought.

Oh..my bad! Good point...

But yeah...that is how it works. We honestly are spoiled with how many games we have on TV here. My fear is that with the uncertainty of the new SEC Network and what will become of the Geaux Zone, there may be less baseball games to access next year.

To be bluntly honest, ESPN is a business. The scheduled programming will draw more viewers than any early season college baseball game. It's just common sense
