When do we find out about the Georgia game time/network?

You can go ahead and pencil in that 3:30 CBS time slot, regardless of this week’s outcomes.

CBS gets one or 2 weekends per year when they get two SEC games and one is at night. I suppose this could be that weekend, with Bama-LSU being the other, and ours could be at night. But I suspect they prefer to go to Baton Rouge at night.

All with the CBS 3:30. They get first pick, no way they say no to number 1 vs number 3 to take the lead in the SEC. I actually hope Florida shocks Georgia and upsets them this week. I still think it's the prime game with a number 5 to 8 ranked GA.

Not entirely accurate. They do get 2 weekends of doubleheaders. One is a afternoon/night combo (completed) and other is noon/afternoon combo which is scheduled for 11/12.

From CBS:
Wednesday's announcement also identified the weeks that will feature SEC doubleheaders on CBS. The primetime doubleheader is set for Oct. 8 with kickoffs at 3:30 p.m. and 8 p.m. Among the options for that doubleheader in Week 6 are Auburn-Georgia, Tennessee-LSU and the now-even more highly anticipated Alabama-Texas A&M battle in Tuscaloosa, Alabama.

Those selections, and the rest of the yet-to-be-determined matchups in the schedule below, will be announced six to 12 days in advance of the game. The 2022 schedule also includes another SEC on CBS doubleheader at noon and 3:30 p.m. on Nov. 12. The season will wrap as it traditionally does with the SEC Championship Game on Dec. 3, the Army-Navy Game on Dec. 10 and the Tony the Tiger Sun Bowl on Dec. 30.

Nearly all SEC game times get announced on the Monday of the week prior around 1:00 Eastern.

Thank you! Great info!

So that means if CBS takes Tennessee-Georgia (and it would be shocking if they didn't), it's definitely 3:30 ET.

My sincerest apologies to both of you for asking the question, in thinking that message boards like this were intended for such questions, and for forcing both of you to open and read the entire thread.
Oh no, feel free to ask away. Just saying, this is usually asked majority of the football games. Figured we would all have caught on by now.

I don't see how any of the contract exceptions occur unless Disney/ESPN opens up the pocket book and outright bribes CBS to move the game to primetime.

3:30 is the most obvious time of the season.

I'm surprised CBS opted for the Cocktail Party this week but that may have been out of reflex than anything.
