| Afternoon | 2:30-3:30 p.m. CT |
| Night | 5-7 p.m. CT |
| Flex | 2:30-7 p.m. CT |
Game time windows will be converted to kickoff times six days prior to the game. Flex games will encompass the Afternoon and Night windows before being assigned a window 12 days prior to the game, according to the SEC.
