For those of you trying to plan your tailgate or watch party for Georgia’s Oct. 11 game against Missouri, you’ll have to wait a few days before you can designate what time the festivities will begin.
CBS has chose to exercise a six-day option to pick which SEC games it will air during its Saturday doubleheader next week.
CBS has two slots, which are at noon ET and 3:30 p.m. ET. When it comes time to select which games CBS, ESPN and SEC Network will air in their respective slots (ESPN will televise a 6:00 p.m. ET game and 9:00 p.m. ET game, SEC Network’s slot is at 7:30 p.m. ET), CBS will receive the first pick of games.
ESPN will pick the next two games and then CBS will pick a game for its noon slot. SEC Network will make the next selection for its 7:30 p.m. game.
Next Saturday’s slate of games includes three SEC West matchups: No. 5 Auburn at No. 12 Mississippi State, No. 11 Ole Miss at No. 6 Texas A&M and No. 3 Alabama at Arkansas. The networks can also choose from No. 15 LSU at Florida and No. 13 Georgia at No. 23 Missouri.
