{{{year}}} [[{{{team}}} football]]

The 2009 Auburn Tigers football team will represent Auburn University in the 2009-2010 college football season. The Tigers will be led by first year Head Coach Gene Chizik who previously coached Auburn's defense as coordinator from 2002 through the Tigers' last undefeated season in 2004.

Auburn will play a eight-game home schedule at Jordan-Hare Stadium, while traveling to Neyland Stadium to face the Tennessee Volunteers for the first time since 2004. Western Division opponents LSU, and Arkansas as well as historic rival Georgia from the Eastern Division round out Auburn's tough road schedule.

Coaching change

On December 3, 2008, Auburn University announced that 10-year head coach Tommy Tuberville would not return for an eleventh season. The coaching search ended less than two weeks later when Auburn announced Iowa State's second-year head coach and former Auburn defensive coordinator Gene Chizik as the Tigers' next head coach.[1] Auburn had interviewed at least eight coaches, including Buffalo's Turner Gill and TCU's Gary Patterson.[2]

Schedule

Auburn's schedule consists of eight Southeastern Conference opponents (four home, four away) and four non-conference opponents. Auburn will be opening the season against Louisiana Tech. It will be the twelfth matchup between the schools and the first meeting since 2004. The Tigers will also be hosting Mid-American Conference opponent Ball State for the third time. And Football Championship Subdivision foe Furman will be coming to the Plains for the first time since 1956. Auburn will begin conference play in the second week, hosting Mississippi State. The following week, the Tigers will host the Mountaineers of West Virginia, the second game in a home-and-home series between the two teams. The Tigers have previously faced all twelve regular season opponents, with Auburn holding the all-time series lead against all but Alabama (33-39-1), LSU (19-23-1), and West Virginia (0-1).
