Because Alabama used up its PPV option against Florida International, the game against Chattanooga has to be televised on ESPN Networks. CSS has a college basketball telecast in the evening, so I think that there could be a split SEC Network 12pm telecast.

Cal and Stanford alums have told the respective athletic departments that a nighttime Big Game is not acceptable, so that game will not be late. It will go in either the 12:30 Pacific or 3:30/4:00 Pacific spot.
There have been several cases where the ABC San Francisco affiliate, KGO, has been allowed to pre-empt the 12:30 ABC Pac-10 regional telecast with a local telecast of the Big Game, shown on KGO only.
Makes sense. Using my site and nationalchamps.net, here's the game times for the Big Game for the past decade
All times PT
2008 ABC, 12:30pm (late addition, shown only in SF, Sacto and Fresno)
2007 Versus, 4pm
2006 FSN, 12pm
2005 ABC, 4pm (West coast only)
2004 FSN, 12:30pm
2003 KGO, 12:30pm (interesting that both Oregon St.-Oregon and UCLA-USC were televised by ABC in the same window)
2002 KGO, 12:30pm
2001 KGO, 12:30pm
2000 No TV (???), 12:30pm
What about using ESPN Classic for one of the SEC games instead of an east/west SEC Network split? They showed a South Carolina game on Classic earlier this year.
