For the unique 2020 season, the SEC requested that TV partners make early game selections where possible to help the Conference and schools with the planning and logistics. Any games that are not selected early will be given the normal 6- or 12-day selection process during the season.
The updated 2020 SEC football schedule will be made up of 10 conference-only games and the SEC Championship game on December 19. The new schedule gives each school one bye-weekend during the season and an open date for all schools on December 12.
