It may only be the end of October 2015, but the 2016 SEC football schedule has already been released. The season begins with a slate of big out of conference games, highlighted by Alabama vs. USC, Clemson at Auburn, LSU vs. Wisconsin, UCLA at Texas A&M, and Ole Miss vs. Florida State. Georgia will play North Carolina and Missouri faces West Virginia in other Power Five non-conference games, and South Carolina will once again open the season on a Thursday, this time in Nashville against Vanderbilt.

And let's not forget that just the next week, Tennessee will face Virginia Tech at Bristol Motor Speedway, one of the most ridiculous sets of words ever assembled.

Here's the full 2016 SEC schedule, first week by week, and then by team.
