Although we knew that we would be playing Tech on Friday in primetime on ABC, the rest of the TV time designations come out today.
The SEC is putting all 5 (6 if we include A&M) of its CFP contenders on ABC for the last week of the season.
Ole Miss - Friday 3:30
Georgia - Friday 7:30
Tennessee - Saturday 12:00
Alabama - Saturday 3:30
Texas / Texas A&M - Saturday 7:30
I know the playoff committee has access to all the games, but being on ABC means more viewers than ESPN. It can’t hurt with public perception. Meanwhile, Penn State and Indiana are on FS1 and BTN tiers.
Last year, only Arkansas-Mizzou (CBS had a boner for that shitty game) and the Iron Bowl would have been available for broadcast TV.
