While we’ve known for some time that Auburn planned to hold the 2018 A-Day on April 7, the school has just announced the annual spring game will kickoff at 3 p.m. CT this season.
Based on SBNation’s metrics for returning production, Auburn ranks sixth in the SEC in combined offensive and defensive production. Interestingly enough, Florida is the only SEC program ranked in the top five in that category from the East division.
Auburn returns 78% of its offensive production and 61% of its defensive production from the 2017 season. Who steps up and fills the void left by the remaining remains to be seen but Tiger fans should get an initial idea of who fills the void starting with the A-Day game.
The school announced the news on Twitter Wednesday morning:
Mark your calendars, #AuburnFamily!
A-Day (4/7) has been scheduled for 3 p.m. CT.#WarEagle pic.twitter.com/P7CDtMtulz
