Kickoff Times, TV Designations Set for First Two Home Football Games
Rebels Scheduled for Pair of Night Matchups in Vaught-Hemingway Stadium
OXFORD, Miss. – The Ole Miss football team found out kickoff times for the first two home games Thursday afternoon. The SEC announced its television schedule for the first three weeks of the 2021 season, and the Rebels begin their home campaign with a pair of night games in Vaught-Hemingway Stadium.
After kicking off the season in Atlanta against Louisville on Labor Day (7 p.m. CT, ESPN), the Rebels quickly turn around and host Austin Peay for the home opener (Sept. 11). The first-ever meeting between the two programs is slated for 6:30 p.m. CT on ESPN+ and SECN+.
One week later (Sept. 18), Ole Miss hosts Tulane for another game under the lights of Vaught-Hemingway. The kickoff is set for 7 p.m. CT on ESPN2. The Rebels and Green Wave have met 69 times on the gridiron with the last matchup occurring in 2012.
Ole Miss now has kickoff times and television designations for four of its 12 games. Along with the first three weeks of the season, the Rebels know they'll battle rival Mississippi State on Thanksgiving night (Nov. 25) for the annual Egg Bowl (6:30 p.m. CT, ESPN).
