Is it their choice or contractual to protect ABC?


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.

CBS could do a side deal with ESPN/ABC to get another primetime slot this year. CBS could promise to pass on Texas @ LSU for its night game next year for an extra night game this year. Either way, I have a feeling CBS will be choosing Georgia @ Bama next year for its primetime game. I don’t care much this year anyway since our game is at Bama. At least it won’t be too hot.
