TCU, Arkansas get prime network TV slot for nonconference showdown

DESTIN, Fla. -- Fans who want to see TCU open its season against Arkansas won't have to dig through the TV guide to find the right channel.

The Horned Frogs will be featured as the first game of the SEC on CBS broadcast schedule. TCU plays the Razorbacks at 2:30 p.m. on Sept. 9, the network announced Tuesday.

It'll be the first game with Brad Nessler as the play-by-play announcer. Nessler takes over for Verne Lundquist, who retired from the role after last season.

Last season, the teams played in Fort Worth on ESPN in a thrilling double-overtime game.
