We are into mid-June, which means that football season is coming back very soon. This means both professional and college football, with the latter coming slightly sooner. College football has become almost a national pastime, with the popularity of the sport growing larger each season.
Despite all the new rules and Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) additions to the sport, the game itself still draws in massive audiences each year.
This season, we will see the Big Ten Conference be more powerful than it has ever been with the addition of a few Pac-12 teams. But the crown jewel of college football is still the SEC Conference.
The SEC has dominated the sport for years and continues to be the premier conference in the sport. Many believe it’s essentially the NFL light and players that play in this conference get an early view of what the next level is like.
With the success of the conference over time, it has brought in much intrigue from both fans and media. Having teams such as Alabama, LSU, Florida, Georgia, Auburn, and more gives the SEC a relevancy that no other conference has been able to sustain for as long. They will be looking to take back the National Championship after Michigan took home the crown this past season.
We recently received the start times for the first few weeks of the 2024 SEC schedule and now, ESPN has announced the start times for the remainder of the games. All SEC games will be aired exclusively on ABC and ESPN after a new rights agreement between the SEC and ESPN. The games do have some flex start times, with afternoons and night windows available for any changes.
For Weeks 4-14, the start times are classified as Early, Afternoon, Night, and Flex. Early is considered between 12-1 p.m. ET, Afternoon is seen as 3:30-4:30 p.m. ET, Night is viewed as 6-8 p.m. ET, and the flex games can be slotted between the afternoon and night windows.
Some of the biggest games on the schedule include:
-UCLA at LSU on Sept. 21, which holds a flex start time-Georgia at Alabama on Sept. 28, which has a 7:30 p.m. ET start time-Georgia at Texas on Oct. 19, which has a flex start time-Oklahoma at Ole Miss on Oct. 26, which holds an early window start time-Alabama at LSU on Nov. 9, which holds a flex start time-Auburn at Alabama on Nov. 30, which has a flex start time
