While it’s not 100% official official just yet, all signs now point to the September 21st Georgia/Notre Dame game in Athens being an 8:00 pm start as the back half of an early season SEC double header. How can we be so sure. Deduction, my dear Watson. First:
The other SEC games of note that week include Florida/Tennessee, LSU at Vandy, Kentucky at Missouri, South Carolina at Missy State, and Auburn at Texas A&M. With all due respect to those fanbases, none is a game CBS is using its one prime time slot per season to broadcast. At the point that CBS announces it is broadcasting a game in that slot on 9/21, it’s Georgia/Notre Dame.
