Possible Future Auburn Football Opponents

Jay Jacobs is still searching for a 2018/2019 Power 5 opponent. Let's do some digging and see just who's out there.

Not long ago, Auburn Athletic Director Jay Jacobs stated that he's been calling everyone in an attempt to get a P5 team on the schedule in 2018 and 2019. While I'm sure he would prefer a home-and-home (home in 2018, road in 2019), he's also said he's open to neutral-site games, as well.

Why is Auburn in this situation? Well, for one thing the requirement to play a Power 5 team is fairly new. Auburn also originally had 2019 and 2020 on the schedule to play California.
