Auburn hosts Clemson first on Thursday, December 19 at 5 pm CT. This is the first game of a home and home series between the two schools, so Auburn will travel to Clemson, SC to take on the other Tigers next season. This is their first meeting since 1993, when former Auburn head coach Cliff Ellis was still coaching at Clemson.
The good Tigers will then host the Boston College Eagles on Sunday, December 22. No official game time has been decided upon as of right now. This game is a rematch of last year's non-bracketed Charleston Classic game, where Auburn fell 50-49 in Chestnut Hill.

Neither game is listed as being televised yet, though I suspect that will change in the coming months. It is also of note that both games take place over the winter break, which is disappointing because they will more than likely be two of the premiere non-conference matchups for Auburn this season.
This is not the only non-conference game that we know of, as Auburn will play at Iowa State on December 2 as part of the Big 12/SEC Challenge and the Tigers will play a neutral site game in Atlanta against Illinois on an unknown date.
Auburn will likely reveal their full schedule soon, and when they do be sure to check back here for every minute detail. For now you can keep up to date in the blog's Schedule tab, and by following @AUJungleKing on Twitter.
