Season Overview
Auburn’s men’s basketball team has officially received its SEC schedule for the 2026‑27 campaign, marking the first step toward a competitive year that blends non‑conference challenges with conference play.
The Tigers will open the season with a 14‑game non‑conference slate, giving the coaching staff ample opportunity to experiment with lineups and build chemistry before stepping onto SEC hardwood.
SEC play kicks off on the road, with the team traveling to face Texas A&M on January 2. The early road test is expected to set the tone for the conference schedule.
Early January will also bring a pair of home games against Tennessee and Georgia, offering the home crowd two high‑profile matchups in quick succession.
The regular season will wrap up with a much‑anticipated home game against Alabama on March 6, a rivalry game that traditionally draws significant attention from fans and media.
Looking ahead, the SEC Tournament is slated for March 10‑14 in Nashville, where Auburn will join other conference powerhouses in pursuit of the tournament title.
