Auburn's full nonconference schedule is now set in stone.

After months of one-off announcements for the Tigers' 2022-23 slate, the program released the full list of opponents and dates Friday afternoon. 

Auburn won't play a true road game in nonconference competition until mid-December, when it embarks on a Pac-12 road trip to play at USC and Washington. The Tigers play six of their first eight games of the season inside Neville Arena, including four straight home games to start the year.

Bruce Pearl's program is facing several familiar teams in 2022-23, including USF (last faced off played in Tampa last season), Winthrop (2017), Saint Louis (2021), Colgate (2019), Memphis (2020) and Georgia State (2016).

Four teams on Auburn's schedule — Texas Southern, Colgate, Memphis and USC — made the NCAA tournament last season.

Auburn's full nonconference schedule is as follows:

• Nov. 2 vs. UAH (exhibition)

• Nov. 7 vs. George Mason

• Nov. 11 vs. USF

• Nov. 15 vs. Winthrop 

• Nov. 18 vs. Texas Southern

• Nov. 22 vs. Bradley (Cancun, Mexico)

• Nov. 23 vs. Liberty/Northwestern (Cancun, Mexico)

• Nov. 27 vs. Saint Louis

• Dec. 2 vs. Colgate

• Dec. 10 vs. Memphis (Atlanta)

• Dec. 14 vs. Georgia State

• Dec. 18 at USC

• Dec. 21 at Washington

• Jan. 28 at West Virginia  (Big 12/SEC Challenge)

My first reaction from reading the list is man....sure did take a step down in OOC strength this season. Then all the names at the bottom kind of sunk in and nevermind. Its back loaded but that a pretty good list of names. And 2 PAC12 schools....bet we don't have too many seasons where we played 2 PAC12 schools.

Exactly what I was thinking.    Starting Dec. 10, it gets real!    (some of the earlier games are against teams that are good sometimes, but I don’t know if this is one of those years or not🤷‍♂️)

Indeed. Huggins is a defensive guru.
