Overview
- Kickoff for Auburn at Baylor is set for Friday, Aug. 29 at 7 p.m. CT at McLane Stadium in Waco, with television coverage on FOX.
- Google says FOX channels could drop from YouTube TV if no agreement is reached by the Wednesday deadline, with outlets pointing fans to DirecTV free trials and Fubo discounts as alternatives.
- Oklahoma transfer Jackson Arnold has taken first-team reps in practice and is expected to start at quarterback for the Tigers.
- Kicker Alex McPherson remains a game-time decision as he works back from a gastrointestinal issue; he connected from up to 50 yards in drills, with Towns McGough or Connor Gibbs next up if needed.
- Receiver Eric Singleton Jr. practiced in a non-contact jersey with a wrapped leg after a thigh bruise, and Auburn brings back four offensive-line starters plus transfer left tackle Xavier Chaplin after preseason attention on pass protection.
