So Tennesse Tech @ Tennessee gets the 3 pm slot, but Vandy @ Auburn and TAMU @ Miss St get 11 am.

Some of the TV scheduling is just BS. All non-SEC scrub games should be at 11 am no questions asked.

Auburn/Vandy won't compete well with Arkansas/UF on CBS. So they move the better game earlier to get the morning ratings

While I understand this, it sucks for the teams and fans that they're getting put in a worse time slot for ratings. I know that's what it's all about for the networks, it just sucks. This means we're probably going to close out our home schedule with back to back 11 am kicks.

Yeah and that pisses me off. I hope the Commodores leave Jordan-Hare with their anuses so reamed out that they'll have to wear Depends for a week.

They got lucky with their last 2 wins. Each time we couldn't be anymore pitiful at that point in the season..The other 19 is probably from over forty years ago.

I didn't know there were two of us. I'll let you be the aggressive one though because I would like to keep my board access.

I enjoy noon games every once in a while. Food and drinks early.... Get the win early, enjoy the rest of the day.

With regards to Tennessee Tech it is on the SEC alternate channel, basically the last pick.

So which game will ESPN pick for the noon game? This is typically the third pick.
Vandy-open date
MSU-Samford
TAMU-New Mexico State
Auburn - Ole Miss

12:00 Eastern - Vanderbilt/Auburn (ESPN/2/SECN)
12:00 Eastern - Texas A&M/Mississippi State (ESPN/2/SECN)

12:00 Eastern - Georgia Southern/Ole Miss (ESPNU)
3:30 Eastern - Florida/Arkansas (CBS)
4:00 Eastern - Missouri/South Carolina (SECN)
4:00 Eastern - Tennessee Tech/Tennessee (SECN-Alt)
7:30 Eastern - Georgia/Kentucky (SECN)
8:00 Eastern - Alabama/LSU (CBS)

NOTE: More surprised that ESPN2 took UT and USC instead of AU vs. Ole Miss this week.

Hoping I get to take my boys to their first game. So an early kickoff is good for me.

I can't believe they picked that game but they really didn't have much choice if they really wanted to use that weekend as their 2 game weekend

This will be our only game this year and we are going to the BBall game Friday night. Staying in Columbus and driving back and forth will suck.

It has been years since we went to an early game and I know parking has changed. How early do we need to be there?
