The SEC is lucky to have Missouri and don't you forget it.

Correction: it was a 12 noon KO....UGA has NEVER had a home game in its history to ever KO at 11 a.m.

Actually it was 11:30 CST but yes. This is the ORIGINAL SEC game of the week.
ABC had a contract for the SEC but also with the SWC, Big 8 and ACC at that time. Independents such as Miami, FSU, Penn St, Notre Dame were up for grabs for ABC or CBS. TBS only showed the SEC and it was a forerunner of what we see now.

Depending on what part of Bama you resided in, you’d also get UGA night games on WSB.


I grew up in NE Alabama and we could get the UGA, UT, Vandy, GT and sooooometimes could get the Ole Miss radio broadcast. I remember listening to the 1980 UGA-UT game when Herschel had his coming out party on WSB.

The SEC was a lot more interesting before S Carolina was let in.
