Not so fast.

Not so fast on Florida kickoff...CBS chooses 6-day option between UA-UF, Arkansas-A&M and Auburn-So. Carolina. So won't be set until Sunday.

AL.com jumped the gun and announced the Bama @ Florida game on Oct 1 would be the second of a CBS double header to start at 7:00pm. The SEC website has confirmed the Cecil Hurt twitter that Coach Crisp referenced that CBS is using the six-day selection so we will not know the Florida start time until Sunday.

CBS has elected to use a six-day selection for games on October 1. CBS will televise two games, one at 3:30 ET and one at 8:00 ET, on October 1. The games being held are Alabama at Florida, Texas A&M vs. Arkansas in Dallas and Auburn at South Carolina. Two of the three will be on CBS with the times to be selected on six days as well. The game not selected by CBS will be on ESPN at noon ET.
