South Carolina fans will undoubtedly be tuned into Saturday night's game between the Gamecocks and No. 8 Alabama Crimson Tide in Tuscaloosa.
But before that action kicks off, there are several big games across the country in the SEC that will be worth tuning into. Here's a look at the best matchups to watch within the conference.
Let's dive in!
Week 4 SEC Watch Guide
No. 1 Texas at No. 14 Tennessee: Noon ET on ABC
We're in for a great quarterback battle here, as Arch Manning goes on the road to play in a stadium where his uncle, Peyton, is worshipped. Tennessee has true freshman Faizon Brandon, who has been sensational against Furman Georgia Tech and Kennesaw State. He's thrown for 552 yards with six touchdowns so far.
This will be a big test for Manning, who is 2-3 in true road games as a Longhorn starter against 2-3, falling to Ohio State, Florida and Georgia. He beat both Kentucky and Mississippi State in overtime. With President Donald Trump coming to town, the environment in Neyland Stadium should be a supercharged one.
No. 4 Ole Miss at No. 21 Florida: 3:30 p.m. ET on ABC
Is Jon Sumrall the Florida head coach that has finally brought the Gators back? It's starting to feel that way a little bit, as Florida is now ranked inside the top 25 after defeating Auburn on the road.
The Gators have a tough task at hand in taking on Ole Miss and star quarterback Trinidad Chambliss. But this one is at home for Florida, and the Rebels could potentially be without star running back Kewan Lacy, who is considered doubtful. The Rebel defense is also last in the SEC defending the run, which could mean star running back Jadan Baugh, who has 458 yards with eight touchdowns already, could have a big day.
Oklahoma at No. 2 Georgia: 3:30 p.m. ET on ESPN
This is an important game for Sooner quarterback John Mateer, who hasn't looked very good all season. He's thrown for three interceptions in the last two weeks. He even drew some boos from Oklahoma fans last week for the Sooners' putrid offense, which narrowly got past New Mexico 14-6.
Unfortunately for Mateer, he's going on the road against the Georgia Bulldogs, who look dominant as ever this season. Gunnar Stockton and the UGA offense is No. 1 in the nation in scoring offense, averaging 59.3 points per game. On defense, Kirby Smart's team is giving up just 211 yards per game.
How South Carolina can pull off a huge upset over Alabama
No. 23 Texas A&M at No. 10 LSU: 7:30 p.m. ET on ABC
Both teams enter this one coming off of a loss, with the Aggies falling at home to Kentucky last week in a shocker. Lane Kiffin's LSU team was defeated by Ole Miss in his return to Oxford in an emotional game for the head coach.
While LSU historically plays well at home, Tiger quarterback Sam Leavitt has to get better. He threw for just 158 yards with one touchdown and an interception. Aggie quarterback Marcel Reed also struggled last week, throwing two picks against the Wildcats. This one might come down to who can run the football better, which would benefit LSU and running back Dillin Jones and Leavitt's ability on thee ground.
Whoever loses this one won't be out of the College Football Playoff entirely, but will likely have to win out with two losses already entering October.
No. 19 Missouri at No. 24 Mississippi State: 7:30 p.m. ET on SEC Network
Speaking of quarterback battles, this should be a good one between Mizzou's Austin Simmons and MSU's Kamario Taylor. Gamecock fans unfortunately got to see how good Taylor is under center in person last week. Simmons has thrown for 652 yards with eight touchdowns so far this season.
Although this is a ranked matchup, whoever wins this one might solidify themselves as a legitimate SEC contender. It could build Taylor's case for the Heisman, as well.
