Quote CBS Sports' "SEC Game of the Week" on Saturday, Nov. 5 will be broadcast in prime time at 8:00 PM, ET with *No. 1-ranked LSU taking on No. 2-ranked Alabama. Title: Re: CBS Moves Alabama-LSU Game To Primetime Post by: bama87 on October 23, 2011, 02:31:22 PM It should be in primetime.

Note: It is not easy for a broadcast network to open a primetime slot for a sporting event on 2-3 weeks' notice. It's that big. 3 minutes ago Favorite Retweet Reply Title: Re: CBS Moves Alabama-LSU Game To Primetime Post by: SUPERCOACH on October 23, 2011, 02:58:55 PM I will change the next game countdown.
Title: Re: CBS Moves Alabama-LSU Game To Primetime Post by: BAMADCHAMPSHIPS on October 23, 2011, 03:25:26 PM Was it a 12:00 game before the prime time slot? :o
Title: Re: CBS Moves Alabama-LSU Game To Primetime Post by: SUPERCOACH on October 23, 2011, 03:36:31 PM Was it a 12:00 game before the prime time slot? :o I assumed it was going to be in their normal 2:30 slot. CBS gets first pick I believe, so I knew it would be on CBS. Title: Re: CBS Moves Alabama-LSU Game To Primetime Post by: XBAMA on October 23, 2011, 03:44:22 PM great news ! ROLL TIDE ROLL ! #+
Title: Re: CBS Moves Alabama-LSU Game To Primetime Post by: bama87 on October 23, 2011, 04:41:00 PM I bet CBS had to pay some serious dollars to do this. ESPN may not be happy, so I am guessing a deal was done.
Title: Re: CBS Moves Alabama-LSU Game To Primetime Post by: BAMAWV on October 23, 2011, 04:47:01 PM This is the kind of matchup that football fans organize house parties around. Not just BAMA or LSU fans.

Title: Re: CBS Moves Alabama-LSU Game To Primetime Post by: Chechem on October 23, 2011, 06:23:47 PM Why isn't anybody talking about who this favors. Not "who", but us. A night game will definitely favor Alabama, despite LSU traditionally playing its home games at night. This year, not so much. Bama, yes. The long day waiting favors the home team, IMHO.

I do NOT like night games. <sigh> Then i have to get up early and wait ALL DAY for the game to start! LOL
I am not a patient person and waiting til 7pm stinks! LOL Title: Re: CBS Moves Alabama-LSU Game To Primetime Post by: bamaphil on October 23, 2011, 11:35:03 PM Noooooo!!!! That means 9 AM kickoff for me, and 9 AM is around the time my internet speed begins to slow. I had to finish up the Tenn. game listening to Eli.
Title: Re: CBS Moves Alabama-LSU Game To Primetime Post by: Bamaphile on October 24, 2011, 06:59:33 AM Ugh. I hate night games. I try to stay preoccupied with other things during the day, but it doesn't work very well. After the game ends, I'm usually still pretty pumped up for a good while, and I have a hard time going to sleep. It makes for a rough time getting up to get ready for church on Sunday.

LOL That is definitely the worst part, Terrie. I do feel like the night time start gives kicks our home field advantage up another notch though.
