Arkansas is always on TV because it is the Friday after Thanksgiving.
not anymore, the Iron Bowl is that friday and LSU-Ark has been moved back to Saturday. Still a good chance it will be on ESPN (at night,hopefully).

How can it be 7 when we play 8 conference games and all of them have to be on tv under the new contract?

All SEC games for sure(8) Washington will most likely be as well. The other 3 probably won't. I remember listening to the Troy State game last year(didnt want to pay for it) and Tigervision keeps going up on their prices screwing over small business owners who want to get the games. So....I would have to go with 9 not including possible SEC championship and bowl game...

This thread is full of wrong information.

Let's try this again...
So what is the TV pecking order now?
CBS: Will continue to receive the first pick of games and broadcast the SEC game of the week at 3:30 p.m. It will have one prime time game per season.
ESPN, ESPN2: Will televise a minimum of 20 SEC games annually, including Saturday prime time and two Thursday primetime games per season. They will take the No. 2 and No. 3 games.
ESPNU: Will add a package of at least 13 SEC games per season, most of which will be in prime time. Later this year ESPNU is expected to announce an agreement with Comcast Cable to add the channel to its system to serve as many as 14 million homes in the SEC footprint. ESPNU is now in 22 million homes nationwide. The goal is to get that number to 40 million, using this SEC football package as a driving force.
ESPN Regional Television (ERT): Will take the place of Raycom as the over the air syndication provider for SEC football (12:30 p.m. game). ERT will broadcast a minimum of 13 games per season throughout the SEC footprint and beyond. ERT will also produce and distribute a studio show dedicated to SEC football. “Basically ERT will go back to the same stations that will carry the Raycom games this year,” said Chuck Gerber, who served as a consultant to the SEC for this deal. “So that part will not change for the fans.”
Schools get to reserve one game for pay-per-view, otherwise, everything else is going to be on TV somewhere.

hopfully ZERO on CBS...I hate that telecast. I have to watch it with the sound off.

All of the conference games and the Washington game. None of the out of conference games. So, that's 9 plus the SECCG
plus the NCG
But why are people talking about tigervision in this thread, the question clearly states which ones will be on CBS/ESPN of course they will all be televised in some sort of way,

--ESPN gets EVERYTHING else. The only exception is that each school has the right to reserve one non-conference home game for its in-house pay-per-view network
And this does not mean ESPN will air EVERY SEC game on saturday, they can choose whatever ones they want but by no stretch do they have to air them all!!!
But for the record I see every SEC game LSU plays in will be on ESPN, but do I expect to see Vanderbilt every Saturday?? No

home page of TD.com has a discussion about there being four, but only one of the home games and that one will be at 7:00. Check it out

notice the edit. The OP asked how many games were going to be televised, originally.
