What channel is Mississippi State football vs Tennessee on today? Time, TV schedule to watch Week 11 game
Mississippi State football continues a grueling SEC schedule with a trip to No. 6 Tennessee on Saturday in Knoxville.
The Bulldogs took care of business in last week’s win over UMass, but face a very difficult challenge in a night game at Neyland Stadium against the Vols’ ferocious defense.
Tennessee has eyes on a CFP berth, and may have its eyes on next week’s trip to Georgia too.
Here’s how to watch the Mississippi State football vs. Tennessee game today, including time, TV schedule and streaming information:
Mississippi State vs. Tennessee will broadcast nationally on ESPN in Week 11 of the 2024 college football season. Dave Pasch and Dusty Dvoracek will call the game from the booth at Neyland Stadium, with Taylor McGregor reporting from the sidelines.

- Date: Saturday, Nov. 9
- Start time: 6 p.m. CT
The Mississippi State football vs. Tennessee game starts at 6 p.m. CT Saturday from Neyland Stadium in Knoxville.
Clarion Ledger reporter Sam Sklar’s prediction: Tennessee 47, Mississippi State 20
MSU’s defense isn’t suddenly competent after a good performance against UMass. There are still extreme concerns on the defensive line, which Tennessee should be able to take advantage of with Sampson. Tennessee will get out to an early lead for a comfortable win.

Political speeches happening at Neshoba County Fair. Here’s the schedule – SuperTalk Mississippi
Mississippi’s most prominent political stage will once again be filled with elected officials and candidates looking to make their case to voters during the 137th annual Neshoba County Fair.
The podium, situated beneath a wooden pavilion in Founder’s Square, gained national attention when Ronald Reagan delivered a speech there during the 1980 presidential campaign. In the decades since, the venue has become a proving ground for candidates seeking office at every level of government, often serving as a launching pad – or stumbling block – for political ambitions.
With the 2026 election cycle featuring congressional midterms, this year’s fair offers challengers a chance to connect with voters while incumbents remain in Washington as Congress conducts business. The event also provides an early look into the 2027 statewide election cycle, giving fairgoers an opportunity to hear from current officeholders who may be considering bids for higher office.
Political speaking is scheduled for the mornings of Wednesday, June 24, and Thursday, June 25. Invitations are extended to Mississippi’s statewide elected officials, candidates seeking statewide office, and elected officials and candidates who districts include Neshoba County.
