Kickoff times, TV channels set for Auburn football’s first three games in 2025

The 2025 college football season is still three months out, but Auburn fans can start making plans for the opening portion of the campaign.

The Southeastern Conference announced the kickoff times and TV networks for Auburn’s first three games on Thursday, the final day of SEC spring meetings.

Auburn will start the season on the road, traveling to play Baylor in a Friday night game on Aug. 29. Kickoff is set for 7 p.m. and the game will be televised on Fox. It’s Auburn’s first non-Saturday regular season game since beating Alabama in the 2010 Iron Bowl.

The Baylor matchup will also be the first time Auburn has played a true road game to start the season since the Tigers traveled to USC in 2002, a game the Trojans won 24-17.

Following the game against Baylor, Auburn will have two straight home games against Ball State and South Alabama.

The game against Ball State on Sept. 6 is scheduled to kick off at 6:30 p.m. and will be televised on ESPNU. Auburn’s matchup with South Alabama on Sept. 13 is set to kick off at 11:45 a.m. and will be televised on SEC Network.

The kickoff times for Auburn’s nine remaining regular season games are still to be determined.
