Kickoff time, TV channel announced for Auburn vs Ole Miss

Auburn has received a primetime slot for their matchup with Ole Miss.

Kickoff between the No. 19 Tigers (5-2, 2-1 SEC) and the No. 12 Rebels (5-1, 2-1 SEC) will begin at 6:00 p.m. central time on ESPN, according to the SEC. Ole Miss will be coming off of a home game against LSU, whereas Auburn will be coming off of a bye week.

Auburn currently leads the series 34-10-0, Having won the last five straight matchups against Ole Miss by an average of 12 points.

Auburn desperately needs this win to stay in the SEC West hunt. The Tigers can afford to lose one more game, and if they beat Alabama at the end of the season, the crown is theirs. However, if they lose to Ole Miss, the Rebels would then have to lose Texas A&M, Vanderbilt. or Mississippi State, and I’ve got a feeling that isn’t going to happen.

If you’ve got a ticket to this game, I’d use it. This is going to be a huge game.
