bad move...if the NFL Network ever gets their dispute resolved with cable, the NFL will rule Thanksgiving television from noon until 10 p.m.

True. Then again, the UT A&M game has turned into a regional interest game...so as long as they don't start it during the Cows afternoon game they'll be ok! :)

well it's a shame that it's only regional interest now, but moving it almost guarantees that it's stuck there.

Everybody watches Michigan-Ohio State, Florida-Florida State, heck, even Texas-OU.

But if the game ever wants to get back to national prominence, having it on a day when there are other good options out there isn't going to help its cause.

BIG BLUE DEFENSIVE END

It may be convenient for all of the fans to watch and the schools and the television networks, but for me it sucks not being home with your family for the holidays. It's whatever though I guess.
