SEC football schedule 2024: Release set for Wednesday, December 13

By Kevin Kelley - November 30, 2023

The 2024 SEC football schedule will be released on Wednesday, December 13, according to an announcement from ESPN and the SEC.

The complete 2024 SEC football schedule will be unveiled on Wednesday, Dec. 13 at 7:00pm ET / 6:00pm CT on a special two-hour schedule release show on ESPN and the SEC Network.

Beginning with the 2024 season, the SEC will expand to 16 teams with the addition of the Oklahoma Sooners and Texas Longhorns. SEC teams will again play an eight-game conference schedule with four non-conference opponents. One of those four non-conference opponents is required to be from the ACC, Big Ten, Big 12 or Pac-12 or be a major independent (i.e. Notre Dame).

The SEC will also eliminate the divisional standings beginning in 2024 and place the top two teams in the overall standings into the SEC Championship Game, which is set for Saturday, Dec. 7, 2024 and will be televised by ABC.

Back in June, the SEC revealed the opponents and locations for all 16 teams in 2024, plus additional scheduling details.

SEC commissioner Greg Sankey stated that the 2024 slate will be a “…one-year schedule.” That means the opponents and rotations will likely change for 2025 and beyond.

Earlier this week, ESPN leaked details of the 2024 SEC football schedule that included dates for 13 matchups. Below are those matchup and dates:

Texas A&M at Florida – Sept. 14
