Auburn 35 vs. Ole Miss 28
I surmised a couple weeks back that Auburn could be the nation’s most confusing team, but perhaps there should have been no confusion at all.
There certainly isn’t now. Despite escaping Oxford with a 7-point win Saturday, the consensus should clearly be that Tigers just are not that good.
If they were, we wouldn’t be having the same discussion four weeks running about how they were lucky to win, should not have won while getting thoroughly whipped, or should have been beaten far worse.
The zebras have saved Auburn and Gus Malzahn from what could easily be a 1-4 record and a residence in the SEC West cellar.
