Tennessee-Arkansas game time is already set?

[KnoxRealtorVOL]

Just looking over the future schedule and all sites show our game at 7:30 that day on ESPN or SEC.

Did I miss something? Why would this be announced this early?

Don’t know why but it did get announced at the same time as the USCe & Mizzou games.

The 7:30p time was posted weeks ago when the initial batch of CBS guaranteed games were announced. It is not a recent time update.

There are a lot of buys that week and the Fla/GA game is the CBS game, and w a Vandy/Miss St matchup on the slate ESPN went ahead and assigned times. They just have the option of which network to air the TAMU/USC and UT/ARK games

If I were to guess right now I’d think we would get the ESPN broadcast

It was announced before the season began. The SEC network announced three game times at once.
