Thanksgiving weekend- Mizzou V Arkansas (game date?)

[Hogwild]

Is the Missouri game on Friday or Saturday this year?

I thought we had the annual SEC Black Friday game locked in, my brother in law is telling me differently. If it hasn't been decided when will we know?

The current schedule shows Saturday the 28th.

Probably in July at the SEC meetings or sometime early August.

They moved it at the end of May last year, when do the AD's go to the coast for their meetings?

LSU is refusing to play Texas A&M on Thanksgiving per CBSsports.com

LSU athletic director Joe Alleva told The Advocate there has been a push to move this year's regular season finale against Texas A&M to Thanksgiving night, but prior traditions and the quest for ratings will not shake the AD's stance on home games in Tiger Stadium.

Last season, the Aggies hosted LSU in a 23-17 loss on that Thursday night -- the slot previously dedicated to their annual rivalry game against Texas. While Texas A&M may continue that tradition at home with the Tigers, Alleva said there is no chance the game gets moved from Saturday to Thursday under his watch.

"As long as I'm here, we will not play in Tiger Stadium on a Thursday," Alleva said. "I guarantee you that."

It is possible, according The Advocate, that the game gets moved to the Friday after Thanksgiving, a spot on the calendar where LSU has frequently played Arkansas in the past.

IF CBS gets the game they will move it to Friday.

I'm thinking CBS won't pick us, with  the other options available.
Too bad the decision has to be made prior to the season, the game against Mizzou could feature two ranked teams.

Not sure I agree with either statement.

A Friday double SEC header of Arkansas vs Mizzou at 2pm followed by LSU vs aTm works for me.  I personally think there is already too much football on Thanksgiving Day with three NFL games already.

If A&M-LSU is available then they will go with them.
