LSU and Auburn will meet for the 58th time in the history of their respective programs on Saturday.
Kickoff is set for 6 p.m. CT on ESPN.
Auburn has a new head coach this time around in Hugh Freeze. But just because it’s Year 1 for Freeze at Auburn doesn’t mean LSU lacks familiarity.
The Tigers were plenty acquainted with Freeze when he was the head coach at Ole Miss from 2012-16. In that time, Freeze was 0-3 in Tiger Stadium but did get the best of LSU in 2013 and 2015 in Oxford.
Freeze hit the rebuild button hard upon his arrival, so there’s a lot of new personnel here.
