While the NFL has only recently started planting its flag on Black Friday, NCAA football has been there all along, delivering rivalry matchups that go far beyond the bargain bins. And this year, the tradition continues with a bang.
According to Ralph D. Russo of The Athletic, two of the most anticipated SEC rivalry games are set to take place on Black Friday in 2025.
What a hint Paige Bueckers might hav given away her secret new look
Fans will be treated to a double dose of hard-hitting football, as the Egg Bowl and the Lone Star Showdown are locked in for the day after Thanksgiving.
“Black Friday for both the Egg Bowl and Texas-Texas A&M, the schools announce. Ole Miss at Mississippi State, noon ET. Texas A&M at Texas, 7:30 p.m. ET,” Russo confirmed on X (formerly Twitter).

These rivalry games aren’t just any typical matchups-they’re historical grudge matches loaded with pride, tradition, and high-stakes conference implications.
The Egg Bowl will be hosted at Davis Wade Stadium in Starkville, Mississippi, where Ole Miss and Mississippi State have traded blows since 1901.
The Rebels lead the all-time series, but the Bulldogs have shown flashes of dominance in recent years, particularly when hosting in front of their cowbell-clanging faithful.
Later in the evening, all eyes will turn to Austin, Texas, where Darrell K Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium will set the stage for the return of the Lone Star Showdown.
This once-annual battle between the Texas Longhorns and Texas A&M Aggies had been dormant since the Aggies left for the SEC in 2012.
But with Texas now officially in the SEC, the historic rivalry is reignited-and landing on one of the most-watched football days of the year.
Black Friday football becoming a new American tradition
While the NFL has yet to announce its 2025 Black Friday game, college football is way ahead of the curve. Last year, over a dozen college games aired on the Friday after Thanksgiving, and many fans chose to spend the day glued to their screens rather than elbowing through retail crowds.
With games like Iowa vs. Nebraska and Georgia vs. Georgia Tech becoming Black Friday staples, the addition of Ole Miss-Mississippi State and Texas-Texas A&M only strengthens the day’s football slate. It’s no longer just about leftovers and online sales-rivalry football is quickly becoming the true main course.

Brzy však přesedlal na trenérskou dráhu v pražském oddíle Sokol Žižkov a svaz ho označoval za jednoho z nejtalentovanějších koučů v českém judu.„Měl skvělý cit pro pohyb, dokázal se na každý zápas velmi dobře připravit. Mimo tatami skvělý kluk do party, který vyrostl v malém klubu bez tlaku na výkon v žákovských nebo dorosteneckých kategoriích. Proto byl hrozně vděčný za příležitosti, které si vybojoval,“ prohlásil Václav Sedmidubský.Současný reprezentační kouč mužů ho vedl v juniorech a jeho úmrtí označil za obrovskou ztrátu pro celé judo. Bydžovský se judu věnoval od sedmi let, souběžně hrál i fotbal a florbal, za své vzory označoval z českých judistů právě Sedmidubského, Davida Klammerta či Jakuba Ječmínka.„Adama jsem poznal v jeho asi čtrnácti letech, když jsem přišel do oddílu na Žižkově.

— Teve essa situação que aconteceu na quinta-feira, quando chegamos ao Rio, mas são coisas que podem acontecer não só aqui, mas em qualquer parte do mundo. Tive a má sorte de ter acontecido comigo, mas estou aqui, graças a Deus — disse o goleiro, ainda no Maracanã, após jogo do Brasileirão. — Hoje, estar em campo, para mim, foi mais um jogo em que consegui fazer o meu trabalho, ajudar o time quando precisou. Obviamente, a cabeça ainda está um pouco movimentada, mas são coisas da vida. Como falei, graças a Deus estou aqui e hoje consegui ajudar o time. Muito feliz por isso.
