    The Auburn football game against LSU at Jordan-Hare Stadium on Sept. 20 will be televised by ESPN. Kickoff is slated for 6:45 p.m. CT.

    It will mark Auburn’s second consecutive appearance on one of the ESPN networks, as this Satuday’s game at Mississippi State will air at 6 p.m. CT on ESPN2. It will also be Auburn’s first night game against LSU at Jordan-Hare Stadium since a 34-17 Auburn victory in 2000.

    LSU leads the all-time series against Auburn, 22-19-1, and the home team has won the last eight games in the series dating back to a 41-7 Auburn victory in Baton Rouge in 1999. The winner of the Auburn-LSU game has represented the West in the SEC Championship game six times in the last eight seasons.
