The Auburn Tigers open the 2026 season on Saturday with a Week 1 matchup against the Baylor Bears at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, Georgia, as part of the Aflac Kickoff Game. If you are wondering where to watch the action live, you have come to the right place.

Auburn (0-0) is set to officially begin the Alex Golesh era on Saturday when it faces Baylor (0-0) in Week 1 at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, Georgia. Golesh has been on the job for nine months and has worked to rebuild Auburn's identity off the field. Saturday, he hopes to see his squad quickly make a name for themselves on the field.

"We’re ready to go attack week one," Golesh said Monday. "I’m excited to see our guys go play really fast, play free, and go into week one as we establish the identity of what Auburn Football’s going to be for years to come."

Outside of Auburn trotting out a new head coach, Saturday's game will feature a quality quarterback battle between Auburn's Byrum Brown and Baylor's DJ Lagway. Last season, Brown got the best of Lagway when the USF Bulls upset Florida in the Swamp, and Brown wants to extend the winning streak to two games over Lagway and make a great impression in front of his new fanbase. Lagway, however, wants to wipe the slate clean and show the world how talented he is at full strength.
