quote:Possibly, but I tend to think that Thursday will be kept for the showcase series. It's quite possible that the SEC network will be more than one channel--while the BTN only has one, the Pac 12 has a national channel and six regional. I think the SEC may go with an in-between approach: 2 channels, one labeled West and the other East. That way, you can have two games simultaneously, which will be kind of important at times in football and basketball season.
Imagine we have an SEC network up. Instead of one series a weekend Thu-Sat we will probably have two. We may also see Mon games from those teams playing Thu bc then you can fill doubleheaders on Mon, Tue, a game Thur and maybe 3 on Sat and 2 on Sunday on the SEC Network

yeah, that's possible. But whether it's one or two channels, I'll be a touch surprised if we don't move the schedule around some to maximize live content like this. They couldn't even show all 7 series with 2 channels without scheduling conflicts.
It's a lot of air time to fill and baseball in particular could be a huge untapped market if done right. Just hard to see them not trying to take advantage of that in some ways and those ways are likely going to inconvenience the fanbase a bit (no different than the 11am kickoffs for football)
