We all assumed this was coming when the SEC announced this summer that Sept. 24 would be a CBS double header, and now we have confirmation. Texas A&M at Alabama Crimson Tide will be a nationally televised night game, kicking off at 7 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 8.
The outcome of A&M’s game this weekend against Mississippi State will likely determine whether this is a ranked vs. ranked game, but either way, a lot of eyeballs will be on this matchup thanks to the Aggies’ 41-38 upset of the Tide in 2021 as well as Jimbo Fisher and Nick Saban’s verbal sparring match this spring.
