With both teams winning on Saturday, Georgia-Kentucky in Lexington has become the SEC East championship. The Bulldogs and Wildcats are both 5-1. The winner of Saturday’s game can finish no worse than 6-2. Since both teams have the head-to-head tiebreaker over Florida, the Gators have been eliminated (along with South Carolina, Tennessee, Vanderbilt and Missouri).
With the SEC East on the line, CBS has decided to make it the 3:30 game in a doubleheader with No. 1 Alabama at No. 4 LSU the primetime game at 8 p.m.
Kentucky holds the No. 12 ranking and is likely to move up since No. 9 Florida will be moving down after losing to UGA. Georgia is currently No. 7.
CBS Sports selects @FootballUGA at @UKFootball as opening game (3:30 PM, ET) for Nov. 3 @SEConCBS doubleheader. @AlabamaFTBL visits @LSUfootball in primetime contest (8:00 PM, ET).
