Did not see this discussed, opening SEC game @ Auburn vs. Tennessee on CBS is huge for the program. Also getting UK at home.
The Tigers will start conference play on CBS with a home match-up against coach Bruce Pearl’s former team, Tennessee.
“Getting CBS in the building for the conference opener is really exciting,” Pearl said. “I like the fact that there are fewer 8 o’clock games. We had a lot of them last year, but the league is very sensitive to trying to accommodate, and because we were heavy on 8 o’clock games last year, they took note of that.”
Home games are in caps and bold, away games lowercase.
Jan 2 - TENNESSEE - 1pm
Jan 5 - SOUTH CAROLINA - 6pm
Jan 9 - Missouri - 8pm
Jan 12 - Vanderbilt - 8pm
Jan 16 - KENTUCKY - 3pm
Jan 19 - ALABAMA - 8pm
Jan 23 - Florida - 7pm
Jan 27 - Ole Miss - 6pm
Feb 2 - LSU - 6pm
Feb 6 - Georgia - 4:30pm
Feb 9 - Tennessee - 6pm
Feb 13 - VANDERBILT - 5pm
Feb 17 - Arkansas - 6pm
Feb 20 - OLE MISS - 4pm
Feb 24 - GEORGIA - 6pm
Feb 27 - Alabama - 4pm
Mar 1 - TEXAS A&M - 8pm
Mar 5 - Mississippi State - 1:30pm

I always assumed Auburn liked 8PM games because it gave out of town fans a chance to get there before tip-off. Auburn isn't exactly near any of the major cities in Alabama.

Damn, when was the last time we played on CBS?
I thought they only carried teams like UK, Kansas, UNC, Duke etc...

Why are we playing AT Vandy in back to back seasons?

Favorable early schedule. At least a 3-0 to start!

Same with Florida. Doesn't seem like we've played them at home in awhile.

Ah, I didn't catch that.
We are playing AT Florida in back to back seasons though. We played at Florida in Barbee's last season too (we almost won lol).

Solid point. I forget that Birmingham and Atlanta isn't only an hour away. Especially considering most of the Atlanta folks probably live in the northern burbs
