SEC Nation had its pick of the litter this week for potential big-time destinations in the SEC, with so many incredible matchups set for Week 10.
Saturday is going to be crazy, with drama and high stakes surrounding all of those ranked SEC matchups, but the popular Saturday morning pregame show on SEC Network can only be at one place at one time.
And on Monday afternoon came the final decision of where SEC Nation would be heading for Saturday’s ridiculously good slate.
The gang is coming to Oxford, where 12th-ranked Ole Miss will be hosting No. 2 Georgia in a mega matchup that will kick off in primetime at 7:30 p.m. ET on ABC. The 7-1 Dawgs and 6-2 Rebels will have everything on the line under the lights in Oxford, and many hours earlier, starting at 9 a.m. ET, the SEC Nation crew will be broadcasting live on the first Saturday of November.
Get your popcorn ready?
You got that right, and the SEC Network social media account properly placed a popcorn emoji along with its announcement that the show would be traveling down to Oxford for the big-time showdown of potential SEC champions and even national champions.
“WE’LL SEE YOU SOON, OXFORD” was SEC Network’s social media headline in all capital letters, properly announcing loud and clear that it was choosing this showdown over all of the other SEC showdowns that are taking place in Week 10.
So, get ready Oxford.
The party atmosphere at The Grove will be at an insane level on Saturday, and the SEC Nation crew will be alongside for all of the fun.
And hours later, there will be a really important football game taking place for the home team as well as the visitors wearing red and black jerseys.
