It has been 8 years since the last “Game of the Century” meeting has taken place between LSU and Alabama. The game is currently scheduled to be at 2:30PM CST. CBS is awarded one prime time slot in their contract with the SEC. However, this game is much bigger than the game they chose to use for that slot (UGA vs ND). This game deserves to be during prime time on game day Saturday:

1) Having the game at night will amp up the atmosphere and Bryant Denny Stadium’s lights will be put to full use

2) Having the game at 6:30PM increases the number of viewers because of time zone differences

3) Student tickets, bought for $20 in the pre-season ticket packages, are being sold for $300-$500 on the student ticket exchange. As a student, the most I have ever seen a ticket go for was $120 for UA vs LSU 2018.

This game deserves to be on prime time. The students know it, the fans know it, and CBS should realize the monetary potential. Please help us really make this the Game of the Century!
