Bama game time?
Posted on 10/15/26 at 8:31 am

Looks like Bama game is on the flex option, either the 2:30 CT start or the night time start. Texas/Mizzou has the 11am CT start, so appears the other matchup that may take the night game would be UGA vs Ole Miss. Solid matchup particularly if they both continue to win.
The following week the other big flex games are UGA vs Mizzou and LSU vs Texas...Thinking that they wont do LSU in the night slot for both. Texas-LSU is the bigger draw so that gets night slot....Therefore, may be stuck with 2:30 CT for Bama?

It’s been a night game 15 years in a row
I expect a night game again

1) The reason noted that Ole Miss vs UGA is a premier matchup and given the fact that LSU's not exactly out there crushing everyone to make this matchup as big as it could be
2) SEC teams have already been publicly complaining about LSU always getting night games, and theyve already gotten a lot this year. Just a sense that they'll try and "even it out" a bit.
3) SEC hasnt exactly been big fans of LSU lately...

LSU fumbled that night game away by losing to Kentucky.
At this point it will likely be at 2:30pm on ABC.
UGA vs Ole Miss will be the bigger matchup and get the night ABC slot. (Thats if they both keep winning)
UK and Tenn is already set for a night game. So they may get the ESPN slot.
Miami @ ND Is that night as well on NBC. Which will likely force ESPN to keep LSU/Bama at 2:30 for viewership reasons.

2019 was 2:30 in Tuscaloosa. I was there.

No more losses for either team makes night game more likely, but still leaning towards it being 2:30pm with Texas being night game

It’s ALL about the money and advertising.

Depends who loses.
Ole Miss plays Missouri, @ Texas, Auburn before their UGA game

I hope it’s 2:30.
That time seems to favor us more.

Dang I missed that. Too early in the morning. This might be a bad take but I think a 2:30 start time could be good for the players. Think about how many night games we have played in Tiger Stadium and the players have crapped the bed against Bama. I feel like a factor that plays into that is the whole Saturday night environment. The game and atmosphere gets so hyped up that players psych themselves out. Play a 2:30 game and we might end up with a situation like 2018 UGA game.

SEC games scheduled for that day
AI lists these as games that would fit the prime-time slots.
They left out Texas-Mizzou, but I think the outcome of the Ole Miss-Mizzou game may determine whether Georgia-Ole Miss or Texas-Mizzou is a more compelling game.
