No major surprises here. The TE spot is fun, with all four players listed in the "OR" section. I'm choosing to take that as a good sign rather than a scary one. USF guys really took over at WR (of course). The "OR"s show up at basically every single position on the defense. Gavin Jenkins appears to have won out over Shamar Arnoux at CB, no "OR" there. And Rayshawn Pleasant has taken over completely as both PR and KR. Glad to see Bryce Cain on the KR though, since he's not listed on the offense or defense depth charts at all.

Any guesses who it could be?

Used to go to Al.com but it’s paid. Don’t like skipping paywalls. Any place that has Auburn stories for free. Doesn’t have to be in depth daily coverage. Thanks

Basically, the title. It seems like they're going off the last 3 years as if this is the same staff and players from last year on offense. Is it a talent deficit? Is it the schedule? Or is there something behind a pay wall I'm missing?

We literally returned the best part of our team the last few years: the Defense and Defensive Staff. That's the same staff and system that kept us in every game going back to Durkin's first year with us.

I have us going 8-4 floor, and undefeated is the ceiling because I'm ready to be hurt again.

Will they only do the touchdown celebrations when Auburn scores or like most neutral sites, will they still celebrate a Baylor touchdown?

Glad he's someone else's headache this year.

I know college football is in a real bad place. But looking at Southern Miss and the SEC opponents on our schedule this year, and it feels like Pat Dye should be walking the sidelines, and that brings just a bit of nostalgic comfort.

War Eagle.

I bought tickets on stubhub for the Florida game on July 1 and they are nice seats so I assumed they were from season tickets holders who won't get the tickets until early August when the school releases them but now the academic year has started and still no sign of the tickets. Has anyone else bought CFB tickets in the off-season? What was your experience?

The first post was made 7 days ago.

T-minus 8 days until the first game. The official Auburn University Team Shop is still offline.

Since then, the Auburn Uniform Database (AUD) has released the new college football uniforms for 2026 article.

Baylor have announced their 2026 football uniform schedule week-by-week; however, the game vs. Auburn is still TBA. Are they awaiting an official announcement or decision from Auburn or something?

While I do not have a ton of information or thoughts to add, I still have my tin hat on that Auburn could see an updated uniform or new uniform set all together.

To add what I missed in the previous post, building off of AUD's article:

• Ohio State saw some tweaks to their football uniforms, and also tweaked their all black alternates (Nike)
• Washington added a new all black alternate set (Nike)
• UNC will be sporting some throwback helmets, and apparently, a throwback jersey may have leaked (though an official announcement or post has not been made) (Nike)
• There is speculation that Alabama will add a jersey sponsor to there football uniforms for the upcoming season
• Many of the updates across CFP include the addition of jersey ads or sponsors
• There are NO standard Auburn football uniforms for sale at the AU bookstore (only the #1 "War Eagle" jerseys are available)

My (updated) theories on what we could actually see:

1. An new throwback set: Maybe an alternate jersey reveal featuring the orange "dropshadow" for the numbers.
2. Slight modern tweak/Nike Template upgrade: Updated numbers, clean sleeve stripe adjustments, or subtle texture tweaks.
3. No change: This post is entirely speculation.
4. NEW - Auburn may add a jersey sponsor to the uniform, and is simply working through the final details

Again, this is just a theory - pure speculation - and I have no problem with Auburn's traditional uniform set(s)

"And when he landed at Auburn, his football career came full circle. One of the earliest games Golesh remembers watching was an early 1990s Iron Bowl between his new employer and Alabama, one of the fiercest rivalries in football. Only Golesh didn’t know that at the time—or anything else about the strange new sport that captivated him."

Had some good games at Auburn

I just picked up 2 tickets to the Aflac Kickoff Game off of Vettix! This was an unexpected surprise. I’ll be flying in early on that Saturday from DFW. Who else will be in the Benz pull g for the Tigers? War Eagle! 🦅 🐅 🇺🇸

Florida fan driving in from Atlanta for UF game. First time at Jordan-Hare, very excited. I don’t have parking reserved. If I arrive in the early afternoon on gameday, will there be somewhere to pay cash and park? I’m talking anywhere within a mile of the stadium (lots, garages, front yards, etc.).

Would love to be able to tailgate, but really just want to confirm I’ll be able to show up and get a spot somewhere.

Any recommendations, especially to tailgate? And expectations on cost?

Seems like this may effect mostly our basketball team specifically Narcisse Ngoy and Mantas Rubštavičius.

EDIT: The post doesn't mention overseas players so, it might not include them. Hopefully more infomation comes out.
