The 2024 football season is quickly approaching, and things are beginning to change across the SEC.
Oklahoma and Texas are finally going to join the SEC, which means that a new scheduling model is set to roll out. Gone are the days of divisional play, and the days of the top two teams in the conference playing for the SEC title in December are ahead.
A new scheduling model means that Auburn will miss out on playing Ole Miss, Mississippi State, and LSU for the first time since divisional play was introduced in 1992. However, the Tigers will face former SEC East teams Kentucky, Missouri, and Vanderbilt, and will welcome newcomer Oklahoma to Jordan-Hare Stadium in September.
