As a negotiating tactic to get Bama/LSU in prime time.
Would love to have a big game like that at night to FINALLY show off our new lights

That rumor was started by a poster on here, MightyYat, who has a relative that works for CBS.
Just FYI.

There's some chatter that CBS gave up this one to ESPN in hopes to negotiate putting Bama/LSU in the primetime slot in November. My brother works for a marketing firm for the CBS Sports corporate office.
The LSU/Auburn game is still being talked about too. Basically if LSU get's by Florida and State they'll give LSU/Auburn to ESPN too to get Bama/LSU n the primetime slot. Mizzou/UGA would be your early game on 11/5.

It makes sense from CBS's perspective. They really fricked themselves picking UGA/Notre Dame over Alabama/LSU.

Damn...giving up 2 top 10 games for Bama/LSU. That’s a steep price, they fricked up picking UGA/ND

Not really. It got good ratings and was a safe pick. Bird in the hand

Can't blame them. No one thought LSU would ever finally overhaul their offense and make this game exciting.

This game will be the exact opposite of 9-6 . Both teams get into the 40’s

Don't see LSU hitting 40. We lose 45-31 in a game that is close until a couple late scores from Bama that LSU doesn't match.
But it'll be a dog fight.
