Late night with LSU football

So LSU's season-opening football game at Washington will be televised by ESPN beginning at 9:30 p.m. Central time.

Thanks a lot ESPN.

Pac-10 teams have long suffered from a lack of exposure east of the Rockies for this very reason -- their games end after midnight on the East Coast and now the Central time zone.

Sure, it's a 7:30 p.m. kickoff in Seattle. But even that's 30 minutes later than a standard kickoff time.

As it is, LSU fans will have to stay up late to watch their team play its opener.
