AUBURN, Ala. – Auburn will play this season's final home game Saturday against No. 5 Texas A&M. The game is scheduled to kick off at 11 a.m. CT and will be televised on ESPN, the SEC announced Sunday. 

The Tigers have yet to lose at home this season with a perfect 4-0 mark inside Jordan-Hare Stadium that includes a 48-11 win over LSU and a 30-17 victory over Tennessee in their last two. They are averaging 34.3 points per contest in those four games and have given up 17 or fewer points in three of the four. 

Auburn has also won the last three meetings against Texas A&M, including a 28-24 victory two years ago the last time the two sides met on the Plains. The all-time series is tied 5-5. 

Despite Saturday's loss to Alabama, Auburn (5-3) remains one of only six teams in the SEC to have a winning percentage above .500. The Tigers will close out the regular season a week from Saturday when they travel to Mississippi State to make up the game postponed from Nov. 14. 

Saturday marks the fifth time Auburn will have played on ESPN this season.
