Schedule
Auburn and the SEC announced the 2023 football schedule on September 20, 2022.[3][4] The 2023 Tigers' schedule consists of 7 home games and 5 away games for the regular season. Auburn will host four SEC conference opponents: Alabama (Iron Bowl), Georgia (Deep South's Oldest Rivalry), Mississippi State and Ole Miss (rivalry). The Tigers will travel to four SEC opponents: Arkansas, LSU (rivalry), Texas A&M and Vanderbilt. The Tigers' bye week comes during week 6 (on October 7, 2023).
Auburn out of conference opponents represented the CUSA, Pac-12, and SoCon conferences and one FBS independent school. The Tigers hosted three of the four non–conference games, against New Mexico State from CUSA, UMass, and Samford. The Tigers traveled to California from the Pac-12.
