Is it their choice or contractual to protect ABC?

As I understand it, cbs gets first pick of weekly SEC games for the 2:30 cst slot and only one first pick every season for prime time. They chose UGA-ND this season and I can’t blame them. There are a shat load of ND fans all over this country.

They were tired of televising noncompetitive games between Alabama and LSU.

CBS has the first priority contract with ESPN sweeping up the rest. However the night game has always been in CBS contract. Actually, I thought they got two but usually burned one at the beginning of the season.
