Does anyone have a link which explains how the networks pick the TV games. I've always thought that CBS gets first pick for the 2:30 slot, followed by ESPN @ 6:30, followed by ESPN @ 8:00, followed by J.P. (CBS) @ 11:30. But, when asked about the Florida game, someone on the Lair posted the following: "this is one of the 2 times cbs can take its exception and choose 6 days before. UGA and UT play that day as well. CBS gets first pick @ 230...then normally it would be ESPN 6:45, but espn is already locked into airing the wisconsin- ohio st game, so the next pick would be JP @ 11:30, unless ESPN still gets to choose one for espn2 since UGA-UT is almost always a CBS game no matter what, if ESPN "forfeits its pick bc of the wisc-osu game, the florida-lsu game may very well be at 11:30." I don't really follow this. Why would ESPN "forfeit" its pick? Can anyone illuminate this explanation? Is there a link which explains how this is done? I've done a Yahoo search but came up with zilch.
