Mississippi State’s October 24 matchup with the Kentucky Wildcats has been set for a 6:30 pm Central time kickoff and will be televised by the SEC network, according to an announcement made moments ago by the Southeastern Conference office.
Headlining the week’s slate of games is a huge SEC West showdown between Texas A&M and Ole Miss in Oxford. CBS will select between this game and the Tennessee vs. Alabama game in Tuscaloosa for its 2:30 pm game of the week. The game not chosen will air on ESPN and will kick off at 6 pm Central. The Tennessee – Alabama game has traditionally been one of the top games of the season in the SEC, but Tennessee’s lack of relevance in recent years has taken some of the shine off this once huge rivalry game.
