Morning everyone...

Looking for times if games in the future...obviously we can't predict everything

How do the selections go...

In the past it was CBS first then ESPN 7pm and so on..

I am looking at November games to make an educated guess on times...

The ABC night game is first pick now IIRC. Flex games on there will be afternoon or night kickoffs.

Hard to really go that far in the future. I usually import the UTSports calendars into my computer calendar in all sports which updates if and when things change. I also have this terrific schedule bookmarked for frequent use during college football season.

There's not really a "first pick" anymore. ESPN/ABC lays out the schedule each week to try and maximize the total eyeballs on the slate of games as a whole. If NBC or Fox has a massive night game, for example, the top game may go at 3:30 on ABC. It most often goes in the night slot. Beyond that, it's a total crapshoot to try and guess it anymore.

This is the most underrated site on the entire internet. Wish you could switch it to EST, but other than that the layout is fantastic.

I find it and keep it open every year.

Their best game for viewership will be the 7:30 prime time game on ABC with Fowler/Herbstreit on the call 99.9% of the time. ESPN/ABC has the #1 TV deal with the #1 conference in the country and aren’t going to wait to see what other networks do.

Case in point: last year their best game Week 7 was #9 Ole Miss vs #13 LSU opposite #2 Oregon vs #3 Ohio State in that slot on FOX.

Once we get to Week 4 all kick times are announced 12 days ahead of time. The Flex Schedule another poster referenced will give you an idea of what to expect.
