BIRMINGHAM, Ala. — The Southeastern Conference has agreed to a 15-year contract extension with CBS Sports to broadcast football and basketball games.

The agreement announced Thursday takes effect next year.

CBS will carry a football game of the week along with prime-time games and doubleheaders and continue to broadcast regular-season SEC basketball games.

I love the SEC on CBS. I really don't like watching ABC at all and ESPN is a little better. As for NBC all they show is one big overrated team that no one cares about anymore so why would I watch it. :wink2:

Good. Nothing better than SEC on CBS. I love CBS, they do a fantastic job and have the best announcers around without question for both NCAA and the NFL.
