Good Morning, Auburn Family. Kickoff on the Plains will be under the lights this year, as Auburn and Alabama A&M will play at 6:30 p.m. CT on Saturday, Aug. 31, for the season opener. 

Auburn will begin the 2024 season with five straight home games. The SEC released kickoff times and TV networks for the first three on Thursday. 

In week two, Auburn will host Cal at 2:30 p.m. CT on Sept. 7 (televised on ESPN2). This will be a rematch of last year's game when the Tigers went to Cal and won 14-10 in the first-ever meeting between the two schools.
