Auburn men's basketball opens the 2026-27 season on Wednesday against Southeastern Louisiana. If you are wondering where to watch the action live, you are in the right place.
Auburn had its chance to "warm up" for the new season with three challenging exhibition games. Now, the games count. The Tigers welcome Southeastern Louisiana to Neville Arena on Wednesday for the season opener, hoping to set the tone with a win.
On the surface, Southeastern Louisiana should not scare Auburn on Wednesday after going 9-22 last season and starting this season ranked No. 266 in the KenPom. But Auburn's season-opening overtime win over Bethune-Cookman last season is enough of an example for Steven Pearl to encourage his team to play at a high level.

“Our guys have to come in with a level of urgency," Pearl said Tuesday. "We’ve got to be prepared for their best shot, understanding that they’re going to be really excited about this one, and we’ve got to match that intensity and match that excitement.”
Tahaad Pettiford and Kevin Overton return from last season's roster to headline Auburn's 2026-27 squad, and will be joined by a plethora of experienced transfers including Thomas Dowd, Adam Olsen, Bukky Oboye, and George Kimble, a tall international signee, Narcisse Ngoy, and a true freshman Caleb Williams, who will work to make a name for themselves this season, beginning Wednesday against Southeastern Louisiana.
