This is a game I think we can win. We are going to catch them off guard and its going to be a low scoring game that defenses will take over. Ours is going to be better than theirs to open the season.“Both Kentucky and Auburn will enter the year as Top 25 teams, and I’d consider the Tigers rather vulnerable,” Hummer wrote. “Both Auburn’s offensive and defensive lines are being reset, and Chad Morris is a new play caller. Kentucky, meanwhile, returns most of its production from last season. The Wildcats should also benefit from having quarterback Terry Wilson back in the lineup. The Lynn Bowden show last season was scintillating, but Wilson brings a needed passing element back to the offense. Had this game taken place in Lexington, I’d probably lean Kentucky. But I like the Tigers to pull this one out by the slimmest of margins. … Auburn 20, Kentucky 17”
