LSU vs. Alabama: Game Time and TV Coverage Announced
LSU’s game against Alabama on November 4 in Tuscaloosa will kickoff at 6:45 p.m. and be televised on CBS, the SEC announced on Monday.
LSU and Alabama both have open dates this week. LSU is coming off a 62-0 win over Army and stands at 6-2 overall and 4-1 in conference play, while Alabama improved to 7-1 overall and 5-0 in conference action following its 34-20 victory over Tennessee.
LSU, behind the play of Heisman Trophy candidate Jayden Daniels, is ranked No. 15 in both polls, while Alabama is No. 8 in the Coaches poll and No. 9 in the AP poll. Last year, LSU beat the Crimson Tide, 32-31, in overtime in Tiger Stadium.
“I thought we played with better pads, our gap integrity and gap control was pretty good on the defensive line. From an offensive line standpoint, we handle a defense that that does a lot of movement, and there’s a lot of stunting," Brian Kelly said on Saturday. "So I’ll have to watch the film to get a better sense, I was really locked in more with the defensive line play. But again, I think Daniels was pretty clean upfront."
LSU and Alabama last played in a CBS prime time game in 2020 in Tuscaloosa. The LSU-Alabama contest has been featured in prime time on CBS nine times since the Tigers won the classic 9-6 overtime thriller in Bryant-Denny Stadium in 2011.
The LSU-Alabama contest will be broadcast on the LSU Sports Radio Network including the LSU Sports Mobile Apps and LSUsports.net/live starting at 5 p.m. CT.
