The Tigers played their home games at Jordan–Hare Stadium in Auburn, Alabama and competed in the Western Division of the Southeastern Conference (SEC).

Bad weather led to the lowest attendance for A-Day in the Gus Malzahn era as head coach, as only 28,033 showed up.

The game was dominated by defense, and only 28 total points were scored between the two teams.

Many starters did not play or did not see significant time on the field due to the amount of injuries Auburn had already suffered during the spring.
