re: Well let my try again. Who should CBS pick next Saturday

Yea Im not understanding the delay. A&M and MSU is the only interesting matchup of those games. If they put Mizzou on CBS just so they can get romped again, I will be pissed.

UGA and OM is a decent game, but not worthy of CBS this year. A&M and MSU likely decided who goes to the Cotton Bowl.

I think they are delaying it because they can. For example, what if:

UGA beats Florida
Ole Miss beats Arkansas
TAMU loses to Auburn

If that scenario were to play out, then the TAMU/MSU matchup loses some interest. In the same sense, UGA controls their own destiny against an OM team that has won 2 straight SEC games (assuming the above scenario played out).

Keep in mind, the above scenario is a "what if." I would be shocked if Auburn wins this weekend. My point is simply why not delay the announcement if you have the right (from a CBS perspective)?

For the record, UGA and Florida are both on CBS this week. Florida was also on CBS last week. I doubt that has any impact, but it falls in line with the discussion.
