    LSU at Florida will be on CBS, either at 7:00 or 2:30, most likely in primetime. That also means that there will not be a CBS primetime game in Tiger Stadium this year.

    LSU at Auburn will be on ESPN in primetime, at least according to Tommy Tuberville - Video

    ESPN gets to pick the marquise SEC game 3 times over CBS during the year, they call it an ESPN priority pick. Alabama at Georgia is one, it seems LSU at Auburn is another, so there is one left.

    Georgia at LSU is likely going to be on CBS at 2:30

    The links below from the Chattanooga Times Free Press have extensive quotes from CBS vice president of programming Mike Aresco. In my opinion from reading the articles and following what actually happens, you can infer that omissions of talk on some games mean that CBS isn’t in the picture. I’m hoping that Alabama at LSU is ESPN’s third priority pick.

    April 11, 2008: CBS set to show a lot of Georgia
    June 15, 2007: VPs for CBS, ESPN start picking games in winter

    A 4:00 afternoon game versus Appalachian State in August? Aleva must be out of his mind. It's going to really, really hot.

    Louisiana Friggin' Tech gets the night game? Our new AD has to negotiate harder than that!

    I'm more bothered by the fact that the SEC CG is going to be on at 3:00pm CST.

    How could that game not warrent a prime time spot? Was extreme cloth knitting already booked or something?
