I tried to post this in the CBS thread from the other day where it was first brought up, but I couldn't get it to open up for some reason. I just saw this regarding the egg bowl. Is there any updated word on the LSU / Arky date/ time yet? Link
This will be one seriously pissed off Tiger if CBS has decided to make that the after thanksgiving game and puts us on saturday. I think that's the only time I'd ever want us to not play on saturday. We have that day all to ourselves and it's a great tradition for two teams that really didn't start anything until '92.
I think you missed this part: Looks to me they are simply adding an LFS game before our game. If anything, they may have to move our kickoff back an hour.
They would just make us wait in the sun until the other game is over. Or hopefully just cut away from regional coverage everywhere but Mississippi.
It's official. Traditional time: Friday, 1:30 http://www.lsusports.net/ViewArticle.dbml?DB_OEM_ID=5200&ATCLID=876005
Seems strange to meet that the SEC would have two TV games scheduled in overlapping time slots on a very light football day, but I've always liked our 1:30 Friday game time for this one, so I'm not gonna complain.
Yeah. But LSU\ARK is national while the Egg Bowl is only going to be regional in the southeast. If the Egg Bowl starts at 12:00 it isn't going to be over in 1 and 1/2 hours so our game will trump theirs once it starts. Why wouldn't LFS broadcast after our game? That does seem pretty dumb.
