Auburn will play at Baylor in Waco, Texas on August 30, 2025, with the Tigers hosting the Bears at Jordan-Hare Stadium on September 5, 2026. The two schools have previously met four times, with the last meeting occurring in 1976 in Auburn.

The Auburn-UCLA series, which was contracted in March 2017, will see the Tigers at UCLA in the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, Calif., on September 4, 2027. The Bruins will come to Jordan-Hare Stadium on September 2, 2028. The series marks the first-ever meetings between the two programs.


Did we know about UCLA? I can't remember. I don't remember hearing anything about Baylor though.

Wish they would have scheduled UCLA sooner so that Pav could see them

I’m down for both of these series. Thank our Aubie overlord for scheduling more home and home and less neutral site!

Playing in big markets like Dallas-Waco and LA can only help the program

Those of you who haven’t been to the Rose Bowl need to go to that UCLA game. The hype is legit.

well hush my mouth by the time the UCLA series rolls around i'll be in my mid-late thirties so I guess i'll officially be in the old farts club by then


for those wondering I turn 27 this December and I did a little math this morning to determine how old i'll be by the time both series kick off

ill be 34 when we get to the Baylor series. and 36 when we get to the UCLA series.

2021: Penn State (State College)

2022: Penn State (AU)

2024: Cal (AU)

2025: Baylor (Waco)

2026: Baylor (AU)

2027: UCLA (Pasadena)

2028: UCLA (AU)


I am gonna give my opinion on these choices and I am sure I will be labeled nega but I've been there before

Why are we scheduling Baylor for a home and home 8 years in the future? Its not like we should scrambling to find someone to play this far in advance. I would think we could scheduled a better, more recognizable, program 8 years ahead. Does anyone really care if we play the Baylor Bears?

I like the games against the Pac12 but two series all the way to the west coast could really hurt fan support. Its not like people can make the drive. I would have loved it if they would have just did one of these series.

Love the Penn State selection and I look forward to going to a game up there. Certainly will be first in line to buy tickets

I know people don't like the Oregon game because its a neutral field but Im looking forward to that one. I have never been to Jerry World so we will make that trip.

UNC? Whatever.. Don't care


With our recent success and fan support, we should be able to get a home and home with most any team. Love to change one of the west coast trips to Michigan or Ohio St or even Oklahoma State.
