Does anyone know when the gametime for Kentucky will be determined. I have heard some rumors about ESPN picking up the game at night, I hope they do so we dont get stuck on Raycom at 12:30

Smells like another Raycom....UGA/LSU will be CBS, and I think ESPN would want Alabama/UT matchup.

Not so sure about that. If they took it they would be doing so just for the sake of showing an Alabama game.

I am PRAYING for a night game...I am flying in Saturday morning at 9:30am, so I should make gametime even with traffic regardless of kickoff, but I want to enjoy my rare weekend off to the fullest.

I actually think we get the ESPN time. UGA/LSU is the CBS game, that's easy, but other than that it's a pairing of two Top 5 teams against unranked opponents. Florida's a bigger market and you know Tebow's a HUGE draw.

Florida...the state, not the school...has a lot of bigger markets (Miami, Tampa, Orlando) than Alabama (Montgomery, Birmingham...others).

Saban vs. Tebow...who draws more viewers? I think (hope and pray) we get another night game.

I think we've served our time on Raycom.

I may be wrong, but I think three's the limit.

Anyone know for sure?

Man, I hope so...I want it to be at the earliest 3:30. We are going with my wife's parents, and I don't want them to have to sit in the blazing sun for any longer than they have to.

It's the same weekend as Bama/Tenn and UGa/LSU, (likely the CBS game) so we may be the third best game.

Hopefully ESPN2 or something.

Considering that UK should beat Arky on Saturday, that would give the UF/UK game one up as I doubt the Vols beat MSU on Saturday. The matchup with Bama would not be much of a game.

UT/Bama is a traditional rivalry & usually a CBS game. I think ESPN jumps on that one. But UK/UF is the better matchup.

Their "HD" is down half the game, and there are always audio problems. It's the worst HD on television.

There are a lot of people here that were very big into the games in the 90s (I started at UF in 96) and we pretty much were the game of the week EVERY week. In 96 we went like 4 straight games at the 3:30 slot. That included a UF game vs UK. It was also a 65-0 drubbing where Quez ran back two consecutive punts for TDs. Getting demoted to Raycom can be tough sometimes.
