Auburn football faces a significant scheduling adjustment for its Week 11 matchup against Mississippi State at Davis Wade Stadium.
The game, originally slated for an earlier time, was pushed back four hours due to a nationwide ground stop on Friday that affected all flights, “according to reports on the travel disruption.”
The team was forced to travel by bus to Starkville to ensure the game could proceed as scheduled on Saturday, Nov. 14, “as noted by local media coverage.”
Mississippi State enters the contest in a difficult position, having lost five consecutive games following an injury to their star quarterback, Kamario Taylor, “as reported by sports outlets.”
Auburn maintains a strong historical record in this series, holding a 66-29-2 all-time advantage over the Bulldogs, including a 31-8 record in games played in Starkville, “according to game notes.”
The broadcast team for the radio call includes play-by-play announcer Andy Burchman, color analyst Jason Campbell, and sideline reporter Bret Eddins, “per the official network announcement.”
Fans can listen to the live broadcast on WLWI FM in Montgomery or WGZZ FM in Auburn, with an option to stream the audio online, “according to the provided team information.”
While the television designation for the game remained to be determined, streaming options were made available through ESPN+ and Fubo, “as noted in the broadcast guide.”
This matchup marks the return of an annual series that spanned from 1955 to 2023, and it is the first time Auburn has played in Starkville since 2022, “the outlets reported.”
The game is now set for a 3:15 p.m. CT kickoff, providing a conclusion to a tumultuous week of travel logistics for the visiting Tigers, “according to the updated schedule.”
