Texas A&M Learns Start Times, Windows for Full SEC Schedule originally appeared on Athlon Sports.
Texas A&M football now knows when they’ll be taking the field each weekend this upcoming season for their SEC slate, as well as their November non-conference FCS matchup.
ESPN, which controls television rights for SEC football, released the start times and start windows for the 2025 season on Wednesday, and Texas A&M finds itself with a plethora of afternoon and night contests on the schedule — including a nationally televised, primetime matchup with their biggest rival.
The Aggies had already learned earlier this offseason start times and TV networks for the first three weeks of the season, which includes a 6 PM CST kickoff at Kyle Field against in-state foe UTSA on ESPN, an 11:45 AM CST kickoff against Utah State on the SEC Network, and 6:30 PM CST kickoff in South Bend against Notre Dame on NBC.
The Aggies will have their first bye week of the season following that stretch, but now know that once they’re back in action on September 27 against Auburn at Kyle Field, they’ll take the field for an afternoon kickoff between 2:30 PM CST and 3:30 PM CST.

That will begin a three-game stretch at Kyle Field for Texas A&M — on October 4 the Aggies will host Mississippi State in a night game set to kickoff between 5 PM CST and 7 PM CST, and October 11 Florida will visit College Station in a matchup that is a Flex slot, meaning it can be scheduled anywhere between 2:30PM CST and 7 PM CST. The exact network for these games is yet to be announced.
The Aggies then will have a three-game stretch where they’ll be on the road, starting with a trip to Arkansas on October 18 that will be followed by visits to LSU on October 25 and Missouri on November 9. All three games are set for the same Flex window between 2:30 PM CST and 7 PM CST but have yet to be designated an exact network.
November 15 will bring a visit from South Carolina, with this being the first SEC game for the Aggies scheduled in an early time slot, with kickoff between 11 AM CST and Noon CST. Like many of the team’s games, no exact network has been pinpointed for the broadcast.
Texas A&M will then host FCS opponent Samford on November 22 for their final game of the regular season at Kyle Field, set for an 11 AM CST kickoff. Finally, the Aggies will close their season with the Lone Star Showdown against archrival Texas. That game will be the sole Friday game for Texas A&M, set for November 28 — it has been assigned a kickoff time of 6:30 PM CST and will be broadcast on ABC, giving the Aggies at least one more national, primetime game following the Week 3 showdown with Notre Dame.
