AUBURN, Ala. – Auburn women’s basketball will host nine games at Neville Arena, including a pair against Power 4 opponents, as the Tigers released their 2026-27 non-conference schedule Tuesday.

One true road game and two multi-team events round out the non-conference slate for the Tigers. Tuesday’s announcement also included a home exhibition contest against Columbus State on Oct. 28.

Auburn opens the regular season Monday, Nov. 2, with Tipoff on the Plains against Alabama State. The home slate continues with Southern Miss (Nov. 4) and Furman (Nov. 10) before Auburn travels to Lubbock to face Texas Tech (Nov. 13) in the lone true road test of the non-conference slate.

The Tigers return to Neville Arena the following week to host Seton Hall (Nov. 17) and Middle Tennessee State (Nov. 20).

Auburn hits the road again for the Discover Puerto Rico Shootout in San Juan, the first of two multi-team events in non-conference play. The Tigers will face Wisconsin (Nov. 25), Southern University (Nov. 26) and Syracuse (Nov. 27) over the three-day event.

Back-to-back Power 4 foes await the Tigers at Neville Arena following the trip to Puerto Rico, as Auburn hosts Stanford (Dec. 2) for the SEC/ACC Challenge and then Wake Forest (Dec. 6). The latter is part of a doubleheader scheduled with the Auburn men’s team. After a break for final exams, Auburn concludes its three-game homestand Thursday, Dec. 17, against Jackson State.

In the final games before the holiday break, Auburn competes in the Cherokee Invitational in North Carolina with contests against South Florida (Dec. 20) and Tulsa (Dec. 21).

Non-conference play concludes Monday, Dec. 28, when the Tigers host in-state opponent South Alabama.

Including the eight-game conference slate, which was announced last month, the Tigers will play inside Neville Arena 18 times in 2026-27.

Game times and broadcast information will be announced in the coming weeks.
