SEC Network's traveling pregame show has slated its campus stops for the last two weeks in October, visiting Tuscaloosa, Ala. (Sat, Oct. 24) and Lexington, Ky. (Sat, Oct. 30). Saturday, Oct. 24 will mark SEC NATION analyst Greg McElroy's first Alabama homecoming since joining the show earlier this year.

Each week SEC Nation aims to embed itself in the fandom of a Southeastern Conference game day. Fans are invited to participate in the live show and tailgate alongside host Joe Tessitore, analysts Tim Tebow, Marcus Spears and Greg McElroy, as well Paul Finebaum and reporter Kaylee Hartung. The expert panel - which holds a Heisman Trophy, three national championship titles and five SEC Championship wins- discusses the morning headlines, matchup previews and shares a taste of each school's tailgating scene. SEC Nation is live from 10 to noon ET every Saturday.
The show is currently in its second season and has visited every SEC school.
