Once again, Auburn believes they have a team that will catapult them into their first College Football Playoff appearance. They have their big NFL-hopeful quarterback returning but is that enough? Last season’s schedule was friendly. This year? Not so much.
Coach: Arthur Gustavo Malzahn III (45–22, SEC 25–15 in 5 seasons at Aub)
2017 Aub record: 10-4 (7-1 in SEC, first in West Division - see photo above!)
CB969 2017 Prediction: 9-3 “...last season was a bit of a mirage on the plains. They will again wins some games because the SEC is down a bit but don’t expect them to make the playoffs.
