Alabama's Nov. 21 home finale against UT-Chattanooga will kick off at 11:21 a.m. and be televised on a split basis by the SEC Network, UA officials announced this morning.

Gentry Estes: Alabama's game against UT-Chattanooga set for morning kickoff

As it turns out we'll have football for breakfast for the UTC game. Sounds good to me, really, and honestly I bet Saban likes this one too. He has spoken before about liking early kick-offs in games like these so you get an extra six hours of recovery time physically.

Good going

Don’t forget the Auburn game is on Friday instead of Saturday, so we won’t have as many days to prepare for them.

Conversely, because the Iron Bowl is on a Friday, we will get an extra day of preparation for Florida. I don’t know if that will matter, much, but every little bit counts.

MATRIX: Bennett, I thought you were--

BENNETT: Dead? You thought wrong. Ever since you had me thrown out of the unit, I've been waiting to pay you back. Do you know what today is, Matrix? Payday.

He has spoken before about liking early kick-offs in games like these so you get an extra six hours of recovery time physically.

doesn’t that mean you have 6 hours less recovery time from the week before? just sayin’

Obviously, but...

… you get six hours one way or the other, and you either use them towards recovering for Tennessee-Chattanooga or recovering for Auburn. Not hard to figure out which one you want to allocate those six hours to.

Does anyone

know where the split coverage will be split? As in which game will be shown in GA?

I hate the NCAA more than UT & AU combined. At least with UT & AU you got a fighting chance.

Good grief.

I will be in the stadium at 830am. Insane. Should be a great tuneup game.

I'll be at the bar at 7

Wish I knew what the split coverage was all about. That sound like it could go wrong in some way. I can just see people freaking out because comcast didn’t flip the right switch.
