The Southeastern Conference has released kickoff times for the first three games of the 2024 regular season for each of its members, including Missouri football.

The Tigers already knew the time and date of their season opener, 7 p.m. Thursday, Aug. 29 against Murray State in Columbia, but learned the details of their games against Buffalo and Boston College in early September. There was also a potential update for their regular season finale against Arkansas.

Missouri will face Buffalo in Week 2 at 6 p.m. on September 7 in Columbia. The game will be broadcast on ESPN+/SEC Network+.

Mizzou will begin its game against Boston College in Week 3 at 11:45 a.m. on September 14, also at Memorial Stadium. The game will be broadcast on SEC Network.

Ross Dellenger of Yahoo Sports also reported that the Egg Bowl – Mississippi State vs. Ole Miss – would move from its location on Thanksgiving evening to 2:30 p.m. CDT on Black Friday, airing on ABC.

This location, in recent years, has been reserved for the Battle Line game between Missouri and Arkansas. Action Network’s Brett McMurphy reported that Oklahoma State at Colorado will air on ABC at noon on Black Friday. Later today, according to the SEC press release, Georgia versus Georgia Tech will air on ABC at 7:30 p.m.

At the time of the schedule release Thursday, it was unclear whether the Tigers and Razorbacks would retain their Friday slot, or whether the game would remain as currently scheduled for Saturday, Nov. 30.

Kickoff times for the remainder of MU’s 12 games are still to be determined. Missouri hosts Vanderbilt, Auburn and Oklahoma in its 2024 campaign. The Tigers travel to Texas A&M, UMass, Alabama, South Carolina and Mississippi State.
