Tigers, Lions and War Eagles will all meet very soon. Auburn and Penn State announced on Monday that the two powerhouse programs will face off in a home and home series in 2021 and 2022 with the first meeting in Pennsylvania and the second in Alabama. The Tigers will travel to Beaver Stadium on Sept. 18, 2021 and the Nittany Lions head to Jordan-Hare Stadium on Sept. 17, 2022.

"This is another great opportunity for our players and fans to be part of something special," Auburn director of athletics Jay Jacobs said. "Bringing together elite programs rich in tradition is what college football is all about. We look forward to this home-and-home series with Penn State."

The two schools haven't faced off since the 2003 Capital One Bowl where the Tigers won 13-9. The other meeting came in the 1996 Outback Bowl where Penn State won 43-14. It will also be the first time Auburn will face a Big Ten school during the regular season ever. The Nittany Lions are 23-22 against SEC schools.
