Auburn’s men’s basketball program is slated to face LSU twice during the 2026‑27 SEC season, marking a home‑and‑away series that will see the Tigers travel to Baton Rouge and host the Tigers in Auburn.

The complete conference schedule, which also includes home games against Alabama, Ole Miss and a handful of other rivals, will be announced later this year, but the emerging matchups already outline a demanding stretch for the team.
