Alabama Not Happy About The Early Kickoff Time vs. Southern Miss

Alabama is not happy that it has an early scheduled kickoff time for their Sept. 21 game against Southern Miss.

The TV schedule was released Monday for the upcoming slate of SEC games and the Crimson Tide will kick off at 12 p.m. ET on either ESPN or ESPN2 from Bryant-Denny Stadium.

In response, the university released a statement attributed to athletics director Greg Byrne and school president Stuart Bell, according to AL.com.

"We are disappointed that our game against Southern Miss has been selected as a daytime kickoff at home," the statement said.
