The South Carolina Gamecocks (1-1, 0-0 SEC) travel to Athens to take on the Georgia Bulldogs (2-0, 0-0 SEC) this Saturday, Sept. 16 at 3:30 p.m. with CBS carrying the broadcast.

CBS is usually available from pretty much every major satellite, cable, and streaming provider, but you’ll want to verify that you have the channel prior to Saturday’s game since some viewers have been affected by carrier disputes similar to the one between Disney and Charter (Local channels in some areas are currently blacked out on DirecTV due to a dispute with Nextar).

Viewers who don’t currently have a provider with CBS can also stream the game by subscribing to Paramount Plus‘ “Paramount+ with SHOWTIME plan” and then using the Paramount+ app or website to watch. The base package will not allow the viewer to stream the SEC on CBS, so make sure to get the SHOWTIME plan.

There is one option that is completely free as CBS can still be viewed on almost any modern TV with a simple over-the-air antenna, assuming there’s a local CBS affiliate close enough to your home. CNET has a great guide here that will walk you through some options. The picture is, in most cases, clearer than watching over a stream or cable.

The Gamecock Sports Radio Network — heard locally in Columbia on 107.5 The Game — once again features former South Carolina quarterbacks Todd Ellis and Tommy Suggs in the booth with Chad Tucker taking over sideline duties this season.

The Gamecocks’ season started with a 31-17 setback at the hands of North Carolina followed by a 47-21 victory over Furman in their home opener.

The two-time defending national champion Bulldogs defeated UT Martin 48-7 and Ball State 45-3 to start their year.

UGA defeated South Carolina 48-7 in Columbia last season.
