Challenges for Auburn
Things are getting very concerning for Auburn. First a close game with Southern Miss, now a loss to Tennessee, once thought to be the worst in the SEC. The Tigers need to take care of business at Ole Miss but can they score enough to beat the Rebs?
Challenges for Ole Miss
Considering the situation at Ole Miss, the Rebels are having a very good year and will likely finish with a winning record. A win over Auburn would keep Matt Luke in a favorable situation in Oxford. However, the loss of standout wide receiver D.K. Metcalf hurts.
Saturday’s game kicks off at 11 am CT (Noon ET) and can be seen on ESPN.
