After an underwhelming matchup between LSU and Alabama last season, CBS looks to have passed over the big matchup on the first week in November with the day-night doubleheader will instead be on September 21st.
While CBS could re-schedule select this as a prime-time matchup as they did for the game of the century back in 2011, but this is the first time since 2012 that CBS didn’t schedule a day-night doubleheader for the date of the LSU-Alabama game.
Asked about the decision, LSU coach Ed Orgeron said: “I have enough things to worry about other than what time it’s schedule. We’ve just got to play them.”
CBS Schedule Highlights:
Sept. 14 Alabama at South Carolina 3:30 PM
Sept. 21 SEC Doubleheader 3:30 PM 8:00 PM
