It is probably a scheduling issue. They are adding more episodes so they are probably adding it on the front end and launching the new season ahead of when other networks start their. They also are launching Kelly Pickler's new show right after it. It won't hurt them not having the team yet since this episode is probably covering the auditions. Actually it is brilliant having it the same time as the HOF game since people will be interested in the cheerleaders after watching and it may lead them to find the show.
