MTSU game moved

[The Real SamC]

First TV related adjustment to the 18 football schedule. Home versus MTSU moves to Friday night. TV network TBA. October 5th.

MTSU is also moving its home game with WKU to Friday November 2nd for the same reason.

Doubt we will know for a while. Remember rights belong to the home team's conference. In this case the SEC. SEC games that day are North Texas @ Arkansas, LSU @ Auburn, Colorado State @ Florida, MTSU @ Georgia, Murray State @ Kentucky, Alabama @ Ole Miss, Louisiana (ULL) @ Mississippi State, and UTEP @ Tennessee.

It seems obvious that it will be LSU-Auburn on CBS at 3:30 and Alabama-Ole Miss on ESPN at 7:30 or v-v. That leaves a mix of noon, 3:30 or 4, and 7, 7:30 or 8, on a mix of the various ESPNs and SEC Network. The UK game is a dog, so it probably gets noon on SECN, or shifted off to the internet on SECN Plus.

That leaves five G5 @ SEC games, so it probably depends on the records of the teams involved. If we, and USC, can come in undefeated, then that gives us the best shot at being the night game on SECN, which is probably the best result.

My neighbor is a South Carolina ticket holder and he is pretty confident it will be a 4pm game.

A 4 p.m. game in mid September in South Carolina's Midlands, i.e., around Columbia, usually would mean "quite hot and humid". Was hoping for a night game, 7ish or so, where conditions, temp, etc., would be a little better, even if only slightly.
