In the same time slot: Alabama-Tennessee on CBS and Arkansas-Brigham Young on ABC or ESPN. So shinier objects elsewhere maybe.

I'm usually behind the times: when did the 2:30 slot on CBS cease being exclusive for SEC games at that time? (I'm glad it isn't anymore.)

Probably when the SEC released the news about the new upcoming contract.

They don't care now except for ratings.

I think it's been that way since the start of the SEC Network.

The SEC is leaving CBS after next season and all games will be part of the ABC/ESPN networks. Shortly after the new deal was inked ESPN announced the "SEC game of the week" will sometimes be at 2:30, sometimes in prime time, sometimes on ABC, sometimes on ESPN, yada yada. Until the deal ends CBS does retain the right for first choice each week.

Thanks Divergent and Auric. I'm glad that more than one game can be played in mid-afternoon. For a while, if you weren't on CBS at 2:30, it was either 11 am or a night game. I'm old enough to remember when games started at 1 or 2 pm.

I'm old enough to remember when games started at 1 or 2 pm......when they should be played (except august/september in the south).
