The potential of Florida sucking this year (and being without Tebow) is a big problem for CBS. At least last year, they had the pretense of broadcasting the entire SEC -- even if that meant only Florida and Alabama. This year, it's all Bama, all the time.

The 2:30 CBS game will be AU/Arky if both teams win this weekend.

I'm not joining the OP in saying CBS has a master plan to promote Bama at the expense of ther rest of the conference. I agree that the current Bama love is about money. My point is that Florida with Tebow was their other cash cow. With Florida tanking, no current SEC contender (Arkansas, Carolina, Auburn) has a national appeal. To meet its goal of maximizing dollars through national TV ratings, CBS has to broadcast practically every Alabama game.
