What TV channel is Auburn-Va. Tech on tonight? Free live stream for SEC-ACC Challenge
The SEC-ACC challenge continues Wednesday, Nov. 29, when Auburn hosts Virginia Tech. The game will be live streamed on fuboTV (free trial), DirecTV Stream (free trial) and SlingTV (half off first month).
The Tigers have won four straight since dropping the opener against Baylor and beat another ACC team in Notre Dame on their way to winning the Legends Classic in New York. The Hokies are 5-2 and reached the championship game of the ESPN Events Invitational last week.
“I’m excited about the Challenge,” Auburn coach Bruce Pearl said in a press release. “The Challenge matters. I think it’s great for college basketball, and I know it’s really great for the selection committee to determine how many teams from the SEC go, how many teams from the ACC go, and who the stronger conferences are. This will be somewhat of an indicator.”
The Tigers have won 47 consecutive non-conference home games in Neville Arena.
When is Auburn-Va. Tech basketball?
Auburn hosts Va. Tech at 8:15 p.m. (9:15 p.m. ET) on Wednesday, Nov. 29.
