Gross.... But this is where things are headed with TV having all the control. They have realized the ratings are much better in the day time so they are putting the better games at noon ET slot. LSU-Tennessee being 11 also sucks.
Edit: The real crime is CBS taking the UGA Auburn game to air a murder on primetime tv

We play when they tell us to play, they pay the bills.Wish Cohen could/would tell them to get 17'd and that we're playing at 6pm even if they put us on ESPN+. Opposite LSU/Tenn and Texas/OK, we would have the same number of people (or more) watching us on + at 6pm than we're going to have on the SECN at 11 against those other 2 games.
Wait, you are saying the 11am central time is now coveted?

I don't really think it is. We're at 11 because we're not ranked, lost badly to LSU, and Arkansas even though ranked, is coming off a loss they should have won.
Horrible, unnatural, ungodly. All football should be played at night as the good Lord intended.

while Ole Miss-Vandy and Kentucky-South Carolina get good time slots is a joke.
Lame..

If you're tailgating for an 11:00 kick it means having to be there from wherever you live, unloaded, and out of the Junction before 8:00 to park. Then it means sitting there twiddling your fingers after the game for a couple hours until they unblock the streets so you can go get your vehicle and load it. Then you have however long a drive it is back home after sitting in the sun and drinking baseball waters all day. I live in Brandon and so to get there and unloaded before 8:00 means leaving home no later than 5:30 a.m. (that's after going to a high school game on Friday night). It means getting home about 8:00 p.m. taking a shower and going to bed for me. IT SUCKS!
Okay . . . I'm going to ask the question: What is wrong with an 11:00 AM kickoff?
As a fan, I like early kickoffs. The game is over by 2:30 PM, and you have the rest of the day/night to do whatever you like.
And, if I were a player, then I'd really like kicking off at 11:00 AM. Again, we get the game out of the way and have the rest of the day/night to celebrate victory (hopefully).
Night kickoff? Either as a player or a fan, I'm just 17'ing sitting around all day waiting for the game to start. 17 that boredom.

I’m assuming that you don’t go to the games. 11:00 kick sucks because tailgating is pretty much out the window unless you tailgate afterwards, which doesn’t work if you live 4-hrs away like our group…Okay . . . I'm going to ask the question: What is wrong with an 11:00 AM kickoff?

No way! When did this start happening?*
The point is, the atmosphere at games is suffering. College towns lose money because of
Less fans. On and on. It would seem at some point both tv and the conference will want to keep fans coming to games. I think......

And with a record of 2.358 bazillion to zero and still undefeated, with a first round knockout, ******!Noon kick lets me see the game and do a date night. Albeit date night sucks if we lose. Now the Mrs. has thrown a new monkey wrench where October means fall festivals in the mountains and I miss the game no matter what time it is because I am shopping for pottery, So 17 me, 17 you, washington redskins.
