Good Morning, Auburn Family. Three of Auburn’s six Southeastern Conference wins have come on the road, where the top-ranked Tigers hope to add two more this week at LSU Wednesday and at Ole Miss Saturday. 

Auburn head coach Bruce Pearl pointed out LSU’s 10-1 home record, calling the Bengal Tigers “one of the most athletic teams in our league.”

“I almost want to reach out to the parents of our students whose children go to Auburn that are down in Texas,” Pearl said. “Come on over to Baton Rouge Wednesday night. We need witnesses.”  

Seeking its 12th consecutive victory, No. 1 Auburn (18-1, 6-1) visits LSU (12-7, 1-5) tonight at 6 p.m. CT at Maravich Center on SEC Network.
