The SEC on Monday announced kickoff times and broadcast info for Week 12 games on Nov. 16, including the nonconference game between the Alabama Crimson Tide and the Mercer Bears.
The Tide (6-2) and Bears (8-1) will kick off at 1 p.m. CT on Nov. 16 at Bryant-Denny Stadium in Tuscaloosa.
The game will only be available to stream on ESPN+/SEC Network+. That means there will be no traditional television channel in which Alabama vs. Mercer will air on.
Alabama is ranked No. 11 in this week’s US LBM Coaches Poll and AP Top 25 poll following their Week 10 bye. The Crimson Tide shut out Missouri, 34-0, in their last game on Oct. 26.
Mercer defeated East Tennessee State, 37-31, on Saturday. At 8-1 overall, the Bears are atop the Southern Conference standings.
Last week, the Division I Football Championship Committee unveiled its in-season Top 10 rankings of all FCS teams. Mercer was ranked No. 8.
Alabama and Mercer have met four times previously, all Crimson Tide victories. The Tide won the last meeting between the two schools, 48-14 on Sept. 11, 2021.
