This will mark the second straight season that Auburn has traveled to South Carolina. The two teams met in 2020 during the league’s altered 10-game, SEC-only schedule thanks to the pandemic, and the matchup was the added cross-division game for each school. South Carolina won that game, 30-22.

Auburn leads the all-time series with South Carolina, 10-2-1. This year’s meeting will be just the 14th all-time between the Tigers and Gamecocks and only the fifth time the game has been played in Columbia. Auburn is 3-1 all-time at Williams-Brice Stadium, with last year’s result the lone loss.

Before the Tigers make the trip to the Palmetto State, they will host Mississippi State at Jordan-Hare Stadium this weekend for an 11 a.m. kick. South Carolina, which walloped Florida at home in Week 10, will travel to Missouri this weekend.
