Auburn and Oregon will open the 2019 college football season at the home of the Dallas Cowboys.

The latest in a long line of marquee openers in Arlington, Texas, Auburn-Oregon is a rematch of the 2010 national championship, a 22-19 Auburn win over the No. 3 Ducks in Glendale, Ariz.

Auburn and Oregon lost the past two national title games. Florida State beat the Tigers in 2014 and Oregon was upset by Ohio State in January.

Alabama and Wisconsin play at AT&T Stadium to open the 2015 season, and Alabama tackles Southern Cal in 2016. Florida-Michigan (2017) and LSU-Miami (2018) are scheduled to be the season-opening games at the same site.
