The Florida Gators’ Week 6 matchup with the Vanderbilt Commodores will kick off at 4:00 p.m. EDT and air on the SEC Network, according to the conference office.
The Gators are looking to avenge a loss from last season to the Commodores. The upset broke a 31-game win streak in the series, and Florida isn’t likely to fall twice in a row to Vanderbilt, especially at home.
Florida-Vanderbilt will be the middle game in a triple-header on the SEC Network on Saturday. Mississippi State will host Western Michigan in the noon slot and Arkansas at Ole Miss is the evening matchup, set for a 7 p.m. kickoff.
Two SEC matchups will air on ESPN during Week 6. Missouri hosts LSU at noon in battle of ranked teams, and Kentucky gets Georgia at 7 p.m. The Alabama–Texas A&M matchup will air on CBS at 3:30 p.m.
After starting the season off with four straight night games, the Gators are playing at high noon on Saturday against Kentucky and will get a chance to play in the afternoon in Week 6.
Most Floridians are familiar with the daily rain that rolls through the state every summer and fall afternoon. Hopefully, the teams can stay dry. They don’t call it the Swamp for nothing, though.
