Alabama-LSU Kickoff Time Announced

The 2025 college football season rolls on as the LSU Tigers will have a new man leading the Bayou Bengals against Alabama in two weeks. The Tigers fired head coach Brian Kelly after an embarrassing 49-25 loss to the Texas A&M Aggies on Saturday. The Tigers' interim head coach is associate head coach and running backs coach Frank Wilson.

The Crimson Tide will face the new-look LSU Tigers next Saturday under the lights inside Bryant-Denny Stadium, with the kickoff time announced for 6:30 p.m. Central Time on Saturday, November 8.

The game was originally announced as a night game from the SEC earlier in the season, meaning kickoff was scheduled between 6:00 p.m. and 8:00 p.m.

LSU hasn't had the season it hoped for, starting the season 4-0 and rising as high as No. 3 in the AP Poll. Since then, LSU has lost three of its last four games, including Saturday's embarrassment at home. The losses spelled the end of Brian Kelly's tenure with LSU after he accumulated a 35-14 record as the Tigers' head coach.

Alabama has righted the ship after an embarrassing performance in week one against Florida State, going 7-0 over its last seven games, including four games against ranked opponents. Alabama currently sits at No. 4 in the AP Poll and expects a similar ranking when the College Football Playoff poll begins next week on Tuesday, November 4.

The Crimson Tide is currently 5-0 in SEC play, with three SEC games left on its schedule (LSU, No. 18 Oklahoma, at Auburn).
