CBS Officially Announces Army-Air Force For 11/5

On the heels of Sunday’s announcement regarding the move of LSU-Alabama on November 5th to primetime, CBS has made official that it will slot Army at Air Force into the 3:30 p.m. window, making the date a college football doubleheader.

Calling the game for CBS will be Spero Dedes and Steve Beuerlein. The game had been previously slotted for Versus, but a four-way trade with ESPN, Versus, CBS and CBS Sports Network paved the way for LSU-Alabama to be moved to primetime on November 5. Versus will get a CBS Sports Network game on November 19 to make up for the loss of Army-Air Force.

We have the announcement from CBS Sports.
