What channel is Auburn vs. Maryland on today? Time, TV schedule for Music City Bowl
Auburn football will look to finish its first college football season under Hugh Freeze with a statement win over Maryland in the 2023 Music City Bowl on Saturday.
Auburn will be without a few players who have entered the transfer portal, such as safety Marquise Gilbert and wide receivers Ja’Varrius Johnson and Omari Kelly, so Freeze and Co. will be looking for others to step up in the absence of some key players. A win vs. a Terrapins squad would mark a strong finish to a disappointing final stretch that saw losses to New Mexico State and rival Alabama.
Maryland will be without quarterback Taulia Tagovailoa, who opted out of the bowl game to focus on preparing for the upcoming NFL draft. Billy Edwards Jr., a redshirt sophomore, is anticipated to take on the starting role despite having only thrown 10 passes this season. He also has 16 carries with six rushing touchdowns in limited play.
