Just inside 100 days till the kickoff of the 2024 season for Auburn football, the SEC announced the league's game times and network affiliations for the first three weeks of the season as well as select matchups throughout the fall.

The Tigers will kickoff Hugh Freeze’s second season with the program against Alabama A&M on Saturday, Aug. 31, at 6:30 p.m. CST on ESPN+ inside of Jordan-Hare Stadium. 

After traveling out west last season, the Cal Golden Bears will make the return trip to Auburn on Saturday, Sept. 7, at 2:30 p.m. CST on ESPN2. 

Auburn’s annual homecoming game will take place in the third week of the season on Saturday, Sept. 14, against New Mexico at 6:30 p.m. CST on either ESPN2 or ESPNU. 



Following the Tigers’ three non-conference games to start the season, Auburn will face six-straight SEC opponents. It will not be until the sixth week of the season that Auburn will play on the road, when it faces Georgia in the Deep South’s Oldest Rivalry on Saturday, Oct. 5, inside of Sanford Stadium. 

The remaining kickoff times and network affiliations for Auburn’s 2024 regular season will be announced for all remaining SEC-controlled games on Tuesday, June 11, with select games tagged as Flex games between the Afternoon and Night windows.
