Yeah ive been to both, Auburn is 11AM kick unfortunately...been there a bunch and always enjoyed the 2:30 and night games. If you are going for a weekend trip, Kentucky might be better this time simply because it could be a later game.

If you're making a several day trip out of it, Kentucky. You've got the bourbon trail, horse racing, and Louisville is not far. Auburn has the better football atmosphere for the actual game.

Better city is Lexington.....better game atmosphere is Aubie. Night games at Auburn are great. 11 am stinks......flip a coin.

Kentucky. Bourbon tour, even if you don't like it is worth it and if there's horse races at Keeland, that is well worth it.

Kentucky for all the reasons mentioned AND its possible to drive up to Cinci on Sunday and catch a Bengals game if the schedules line up. Last time we played there a buddy and I did this watched Burrow & Chase play the packers.

Eta: dammit should have looked before I posted. They're at the dolphins that week.

More to do in Kentucky area with keeneland nearby. I enjoyed the Auburn fans , game , and stadium a ton more. To be fair when I went to Kentucky we got our asses kicked

If I were picked this year I’d go to Kentucky.

I chose Kentucky thinking it would be better. Hopefully I guessed right.
