SEC Football Media Days, July 19: Who’s talking when, and where to watch

A pair of underdog contenders from the East and West divisions of the SEC will talk to the press on Thursday to wrap up the conference’s media days at the College Football Hall of Fame in Atlanta.

Auburn and South Carolina have both been consistently ranked in preseason top 25 polls but face huge in-division challenges against Alabama and Georgia, respectively. The third team appearing Thursday, Vanderbilt, is expected to finish near the bottom of the league.

All told, the head coach and three players from three of the conference’s 14 teams are scheduled to speak Thursday. Many of the news conferences and interviews will be streamed online at WatchESPN through SEC Network Plus. Portions will also be broadcast on the SEC Network.

Here’s who will be speaking on TV and when you can see them, as well a list of the other people who will be talking in Atlanta on Thursday.
