SEC Media Days 2024 schedule: How to watch
The biggest date on the preseason schedule is here as SEC Media Days kicks off today and runs through most of the week, signaling the unofficial start of the 2024 college football Talkin' Season, and giving fans their first look at coaches and players answering questions about the year to come.
And what a historic year it will be: Texas and Oklahoma, two of college football's most successful winners, have joined the SEC as part of the sport's major conference realignment, and this season finds the College Football Playoff expanding from four to 12 teams for the first time.
Steve Sarkisian will represent the Longhorns a year removed from beating Alabama and winning the Big 12 title, and Brent Venables speaks for the Sooners heading into their SEC debut.
Another major historical shift for the SEC is the departure of Nick Saban. College football's record-holder seven-time national champion head coach retired this offseason, leaving a massive vacancy not only on the sideline going forward, but also as a voice at Media Days. Kalen DeBoer will speak for the Crimson Tide, with a forum to present his case for how to build the program going forward.
