The Georgia football team will return to Sanford Stadium on Nov. 9 as the Bulldogs host the Missouri Tigers. And a game time and TV network have been announced for the Week 11 game.

The No. 8 Bulldogs and Tigers will getting things started at 7 p.m. on ESPN.

Just a few weeks ago this game was thought to be a huge game in the SEC East race, as both Georgia and Missouri held 5-1 records. But the Tigers have dropped their last two games, scoring just a combined 21 points against Vanderbilt and Kentucky in defeats. Missouri (5-3, 2-2) does have this week off to prepare for Georgia (6-1, 3-1).

The Bulldogs, on the other hand, have a pivotal contest against the No. 6 Florida Gators this Saturday. Both teams enter the game with one conference loss and the winner of the game will have the inside track on winning the SEC East and representing the division in Atlanta. The Georgia-Florida game is set for 3:30 p.m. ET on CBS this coming Saturday.

When Georgia and Missouri met in Columbia, Mo., last season, the Tigers were able to keep things close. Missouri ran for 172 yards and 4 touchdowns against Georgia in 2018. But quarterback Drew Lock — who is now a Denver Bronco — did not have a touchdown pass in the game. The Bulldogs also benefited from a defensive touchdown and a special teams touchdown on their way to a 43-29 win.

The biggest game on Nov. 9 will be between the No. 1 LSU Tigers and the No. 2 Alabama Crimson Tide. That game is set for a 3:30 p.m. ET kickoff.
