Auburn Athletics Are A Tradition

Auburn Tiger Fans unite in the charming twin cities of Auburn and Opelika every season to root for the nationally ranked Auburn University Tigers. A collegiate legacy dating over a century, Auburn athletics are a tradition that keeps alumni, locals, and Auburn Tiger fans from around the world filling stadiums and coliseums all over campus.
 
Following the initiation of their first football team in 1892, the existence of sports at Auburn University has become an institution that drives and inspires the community as much as the programs are inspired by local flavor and the national network of Auburn Family.

As a predominant member of the NCAA and the Southeastern Conference, the entire Auburn Athletics Department is a force every season as athletes endeavor to come out on top in both the 9 men’s and 11 women’s varsity athletic programs. The Auburn athletic program has undergone a remarkable evolution spurring from the celebrated 1892 football victory of 10-0 over the University of Georgia that sparked not only the oldest football rivalry in the South, but the championship tradition that Auburn athletes continue to surpass season after season.

Whether you’re able to plan your visit during the fall and join the nation of Auburn Tiger fans who fill Jordan-Hare Stadium or in the spring to see Auburn Tiger Women’s Basketball add to their collection of seven total SEC titles; there is never a shortage of action on any of the playing fields in Auburn.
