Auburn football’s 2024 slate is set in stone as the Tigers’ full schedule was released Wednesday night as part of the 2024 SEC Football Schedule Reveal, which aired on ESPN and SEC Network.
The Tigers’ highly anticipated matchup against the new kids on the SEC block will come on Sept. 28 as Auburn hosts Oklahoma at Jordan-Hare Stadium. Sept. 28′s meeting will be the third ever between the two programs, with the Sooners holding a 2-0 record over the Tigers. However, Oklahoma has never paid a visit to Jordan-Hare Stadium.
Auburn’s meetings with its pair of opponents in Georgia and Alabama will come during familiar parts of the season as the Tigers visit the Bulldogs in Athens for the “Deep South’s Oldest Rivalry” in Week 6 on Oct. 5. Meanwhile, Auburn heads to Tuscaloosa for the Iron Bowl in Week 14 on Nov. 30.
Hugh Freeze and the Tigers’ non-conference slate features a season-opening home game against Alabama A&M on Aug. 31, followed by hosting Cal on Sept. 7. Auburn will then play a home home game against New Mexico on Sept. 14, followed by Louisiana-Monroe coming to Jordan-Hare Stadium on Nov. 23.
In SEC play, Auburn draws home games against Arkansas, Oklahoma, Vanderbilt and Texas A&M. Meanwhile, the Tigers’ conference road slate features visits to Georgia, Missouri, Kentucky and Alabama.
