CBS Sports has announced that it will air the annual Service Academy game between Air Force and Navy from Annapolis, MD on October 1 at noon ET. This game had been originally scheduled for CBS Sports Network at 3:30 p.m. ET on the same date, so the contest is being moved up 3½ hours. Add this to a day that already has an SEC on CBS doubleheader scheduled and you have a busy tripleheader on October 1. CBS has yet to announce its SEC game choices for that date, but you would have Air Force vs. Navy at noon followed by SEC games at 3:30 p.m. and 8 p.m.
We have the official announcement from CBS Sports.
