It looks as if Auburn is moving in the right direction when it comes to scheduling. Jay Jacobs commented yesterday that the Tigers would like to schedule at least one BCS caliber non-conference game each year.He confirmed that he's in talks with Boston College about a home and home series that could begin as early as 2010. While not exactly BCS caliber, Auburn has Big East member South Florida coming on the schedule next year. That game might not have the glamour of USC or Boston College but it could be just as dangerous.
Auburn's contract with Washington State is for this year only and does not include a trip back west next season. I'm excited about the possibility of playing Boston College. They are much more appealing now that they are in the ACC. And besides, there are worse things to do than taking a trip to New England in the fall.

That is great to hear. I grew up about a half hour from BC's Chestnut Hill campus and I haven't been back to Alumni Stadium since '89 (when USC smoked the Golden Eagles). If Jacobs can get that home-and-home series agreement, I will certainly make that trek northward. I can even say hello to the parents as well.
Thanks for the note Greg. I've been to Boston several times but never to the BC campus. I'm with you, I hope we get the deal worked out.
Here are some links that I believe will be interested
