So what happened between Kentucky and LSU. I was at UT's game and they said NCAA Regulations or something. Anybody know?

Travel considerations. Flights have to be caught, etc.

This won't happen if you bus in on a road trip, but when you fly...

Typically in this situation, there is an agreement between schools that an inning won't start after a certain time based upon the visiting team's scheduled departure time. Whether that's the 7th inning or the 15th doesn't matter. Game is over at that point.

We may see UT move the start time of the Arkansas game up to 1 or 12:30 next Sunday for this very reason, since Arkansas will fly in.

That half-game can create a real advantage in the standings at year end, too......
