This Tennessee — Auburn matchup feels... interesting. That’s not something I was expecting to write a month ago. The Vols haven’t shown us too much to be confident in, outside of a respectable effort against Georgia.
Auburn is the main focus here. A 24-13 win over Southern Miss followed by a two touchdown loss to Mississippi State has turned up the heat on Gus Malzahn. Suddenly, Auburn’s back is up against the wall.
Next up for them is a rebuilding Tennessee team that seemed to find a little defensive spark two weeks ago. Can Tennessee capitalize on the Tigers’ struggles?
