The SEC announced Monday that ninth-ranked Tennessee's home game Oct. 15 against No. 1 Alabama will kick off at 3:30 p.m. Eastern time, and it will be televised nationally by CBS.

The Vols (5-0, 2-0 SEC) remained unbeaten Saturday by rallying for a 34-31 win over Georgia on a 43-yard touchdown pass from Joshua Dobbs to Jauan Jennings on the game's final play, improving to 5-0 for the first time since their 1998 national-championship season. They will travel to No. 8 Texas A&M (5-0, 3-0) on Saturday.

The defending national champion Crimson Tide (5-0, 2-0) continued their perfect start Saturday with a 34-6 win against Kentucky and will visit No. 16 Arkansas (4-1, 0-1) on Saturday night.
