Auburn basketball's 2015-16 non-conference schedule is set

Auburn's non-conference schedule in Bruce Pearl's second season will include games against as many as seven programs that appeared in the NCAA Tournament last season.

Auburn announced its non-conference slate for the 2015-16 season Wednesday.

The Tigers open the season against UAB, which begins a four-game homestand against Colorado, Georgia Southern and Northwestern State.

The Tigers will travel to Coastal Carolina (Dec. 2) to face former Auburn coach Cliff Ellis' team, which reached the NCAA Tournament last season, and face Middle Tennessee (Dec. 12) at Bridgestone Arena in Nashville.

"In the non-conference, you get to send your team a message, and that is whether you believe in them or not," Pearl said in a news release.
