CAJUNS ANNOUNCE
FOOTBALL SCHEDULE CHANGES
LAFAYETTE – The University of Louisiana at Lafayette
announced on Friday two game time changes for the upcoming 2002 football
season.? The reason for the time changes
is because ESPN Regional Television will televise the games as part of the Sun
Belt Conference's television package.
The Cajuns home game on Sept. 21
against UAB will now be a 6 PM CST start.?
UL Lafayette will enjoy an 11 AM CST kick-off at Middle Tennessee on
Oct. 19.
The Sun Belt Conference announced
on Thursday that Comcast Sports Southeast
was the first affiliate to sign-on to the SBC-ESPN Regional Television football
television network.? CSS serves 3.1
million cable television households in nine southeastern states.
“Although
CSS is not broadcast in Louisiana, its exposure is great for the conference,”
said UL Lafayette athletics director Nelson Schexnayder.? “I hope an agreement can be reached here
locally to broadcast all seven of the Sun Belt TV games.”
Conference officials have stated that clearances in additional markets
are currently being negotiated, and it is expected that the Sun Belt games will
be shown in each league market. Also, select games will be available on
ESPN GamePlan, ESPN's out-of-market college football pay-per-view package.
