The Auburn Tigers college football team represents Auburn University in the Southeastern Conference (SEC). The Tigers compete as part of the NCAA Division I Football Bowl Subdivision. The program has had 28 head coaches, and 3 interim head coaches, since it began play during the 1892 season.[1] The Tigers current head coach is Hugh Freeze.[2]

The team has played more than 1,250 games over 119 seasons.[1] In that time, eight coaches have led the Tigers in postseason bowl games: Jack Meagher, Ralph Jordan, Pat Dye, Terry Bowden, Tommy Tuberville, Gene Chizik, Gus Malzahn and Bryan Harsin. Seven coaches won conference championships: Walter H. Watkins and Mike Donahue won a combined three as a member of the Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Association; Chet A. Wynne won one as a member of the Southern Conference; and Jordan, Dye, Tuberville, Chizik, and Malzahn won a combined eight as a member of the SEC.[3] During their tenures, Jordan and Chizik each won a national championship with the Tigers.[3][4]

Jordan is the leader in seasons coached and games won, with 176 victories during his 25 years with the program.[1] M. S. Harvey and Johnny Floyd have the lowest winning percentage of those who have coached more than one game, with .000.[1] Of the 26 different head coaches who have led the Tigers, John Heisman,[5] Donahue,[6] Jordan[7] and Dye[8] have been inducted as head coaches into the College Football Hall of Fame.
