SEC Network’s weekly, traveling pre-game show, SEC Nation Presented by Johnsonville, gets ready to preview the Week 4 action in Baton Rouge between the UCLA Bruins and the 16th-ranked LSU Tigers. The show will originate from The Quad from 9-11 a.m. CT, Saturday, Sept. 21, on SEC Network.  

For Brian Kelly’s Tigers, LSU was able to beat South Carolina, 36-33, in Columbia, S.C. this weekend. LSU’s now 2-1 on the season after its first SEC contest.

“It’s not perfect by any means, but it’s early in the season,” Kelly said after the game. “We’ve played two really good opponents – Power Four opponents – in USC and UCLA, and we’ve had the lead in the fourth quarter twice. One we let slip away, and this one, we finished off.

“Football teams take on, you know, identities and personalities. This group’s gonna battle. It may not be the cleanest. We’ll continue to coach them because they want to do so well for LSU. They want to do it the right way, and they’re gonna work at it.

Laura Rutledge hosts SEC Nation, her eighth season in the host’s chair and her ninth on the show overall, joined by Paul Finebaum, Roman Harper, Jordan Rodgers and Tim Tebow for a weekly breakdown of the SEC football action to come. 

Additionally, Marty & McGee Presented by Old Trapper will be live on Saturday morning from 8-9 a.m. at each location, as Marty Smith and Ryan McGee meet at the intersection of southern lifestyle and college football to bring viewers the latest headlines, Hillbilly and otherwise, across the SEC landscape. Marty & McGee will be live on the road with SEC Nation every Saturday this fall.

The Quad will also be home to The Paul Finebaum Show Presented by Johnsonville, with #FinebaumFriday live from 2-6 p.m. ET.

SEC Nation returns to college football tailgates, stadiums and sidelines this fall, and will regularly follow the site of the 2:30 p.m. SEC on ABC showdown.
