SEC Football TV Times Set Through End of the Season; Egg Bowl on CBS, Iron Bowl to ESPN

The SEC has announced its football schedule through the end of the season. Because number one-ranked Mississippi State is in the driver’s seat for one of the four College Football Playoff spots, CBS will feature the Bulldogs twice between now and December 6 which is the date of the SEC Championship. In addition to seeing Mississippi twice, CBS will also show Ole Miss twice in this same period. This includes two games during Thanksgiving Week culminating with the Egg Bowl between Mississippi State and Mississippi on Saturday, November 29.

The ESPN family of platforms including SEC Network will carry 7 games on Saturday, November 22 and another four on Thanksgiving Week. ESPN will air the annual Iron Bowl matchup between Auburn and Alabama in Tuscaloosa on November 29 in primetime. SEC Network will have an alternative telecast of Auburn-Alabama. Details of that will be released later.

We have the two schedules. We begin with the SEC on CBS.

College Football: Auburn at Alabama “Iron Bowl” Highlights ESPN’s Remaining SEC Schedule

ESPN’s remaining 2014 regular-season SEC game schedule – games on November 22, 27 and 29 – will be highlighted by a prime time telecast of No. 3 Auburn at No. 5 Alabama in the 79th Iron Bowl. ESPN will televise the in-state showdown – widely considered one of the most competitive and best rivalries in sports – on Saturday, Nov. 29, at 7:45 p.m. ET. SEC Network will also offer a live alternate presentation to ESPN’s coverage with specific details to be finalized.

Last season’s matchup featured No. 4 Auburn, with a 10-1 record, defeating an undefeated No. 1 Alabama on the final play of the game, giving Auburn a berth in the SEC Championship Game and ending Alabama’s quest for a third consecutive national title.
