Sucks that people are gonna have go to ESPN3 to watch a top 25 matchup this weekend. I guess they assumed UGA would beat Mizzou last week?

Seriously, I'd rather not be in the 3:30 CBS slot. 7 hours of commercials just doesn't do it for me.

You mean CBS didn't want to showcase backup quarterback fest 2013? That game has the potential to be 3-2 reincarnate. Woof.

Once again, this matchup was determined 2 weeks ago, before this weekend's games. No need to be offended.

I guess Mizzou has to win a national championship before we get any respect.

You don't love Pitbull enough to enjoy it? It really is fricking terrible. If the SEC wasn't in the midst of Spaceballs 2: The Search for More Money, I would look to them to fix the problem of taking a three hour game and making it a five hour game, but alas, gotta get the money with both fists.

Not only did CBS use the first two picks for better games, ESPN has the next two picks and did not go with that game either... So in reality you were the 5th pick.

Oh cool. I was just checking the SEC slate on ESPN and they had it under "Gameplan/ESPN3" but having it on the SEC network makes a lot more sense.

Honestly, this weirdest thing to me is that of all weeks to choose to have a double-header, ESPN chose this one. Do they get one or two per year?

Yeah because a depleted UGA team vs Vandy is so much more enthralling.

I'll be there in Nashville at 11 am CT but I won't be happy about it. Until that night, I'll probably be cool with it by then.

They get two, one week is LSU vs. Bama at night (Day-Night) ... This seemed like a stupid time for the second double header...(Morning-Afternoon)

They probably wanted to show a Vandy game since they haven't shown one in a long time (if ever)
