Auburn to open season against Kansas State

And in Auburn News...

Per Wildcatdaily.com:

An agreement in principle has been reached between Kansas State University and Auburn University to open the 2007 football season at Auburn.

Kansas State associate athletic director Jim Epps confirmed this morning that the game will be played on Sept. 1, and will be televised by ESPN.

No word yet on whether or not Auburn has to provide a return trip.

For Dawg Fans this means the ESPN inventory for Sept. 1st just got a bit more crowded. I still think we're going to have an ESPN or ESPN2 night game against Oklahoma State, and I believe a game between Georgia and Oklahoma State will be a better TV draw than KSU vs. Auburn. I also still think we're kicking off between 6:00 and 8:00 pm.
