The biggest question is how much improvement Auburn can make in one week. Southern Miss has some familiar names on defense for Auburn...

Auburn football escaped Baylor with a win, but now the Tigers have to prove they can handle success.

Auburn football got the win over Baylor, but there is one adjustment that could completely change what this offense looks like moving forward: let Byrum Brown be Byrum Brown. There were moments against Baylor where Brown appeared to be fighting his natural instincts. Auburn clearly wanted him to operate from the pocket, work through the passing game and avoid taking unnecessary hits. There is logi...

Auburn football did something against Baylor that this program simply has not done enough over the last few seasons: find a way to win when everything wasn’t going perfectly. Was it pretty? No. Was the Auburn offense as explosive or efficient as expected? Definitely not. But there is a major difference between getting lucky and making the plays necessary to win a football game. Auburn made those p...

Auburn football got the win over Baylor, but nobody should walk away thinking everything went according to plan. The Tigers found a way to finish the job when it mattered most, and after watching Auburn lose so many close games over the past few seasons, there is something to be said for simply finding a way to WIN. But there is plenty for Alex Golesh and this Auburn coaching staff to clean up. By...

Auburn football is 1 and 0. Somehow, that has not stopped some Auburn fans from already preparing for the worst. Yes, Auburn has things that need to improve after the Baylor game. The offense only scored 17 points. There were questionable decisions, missed opportunities and moments that probably reminded fans of frustrating Auburn teams from the past. But there is a massive difference between iden...

Auburn football walked away from Baylor 1 and 0, and there is a legitimate possibility that this was the worst version of Auburn fans will see all season. That does not mean everything was good. Far from it. The Tigers have plenty to clean up offensively, beginning with adjustments, quarterback decision making and finding better ways to get their playmakers involved. But Auburn won the football ga...

Auburn football got the win against Baylor, but there are several things that absolutely have to improve if the Tigers expect to keep winning as the schedule gets tougher. The encouraging part is that many of Auburn’s problems appear fixable. There were elements of the offense that Auburn can build around in both the running and passing games. The production was not what many expected, but the bod...

Auburn football found a way to win, but maybe the biggest story coming out of the Baylor game is HOW the Tigers got it done. This Auburn team got punched, responded, and showed the type of physicality and resilience that has been missing in too many close games.

Auburn football is getting closer to kickoff against Baylor, and the more I look at this matchup, the harder it becomes for me to see how Baylor stops Byrum Brown and this Auburn rushing attack. Baylor had problems stopping Auburn's quarterback run game last season. Now the Bears have to deal with Brown in an offense that should actually be committed to using the quarterback as a legitimate weapon...

How high should expectations be for Auburn football in 2026? At this point, eight wins feels like the line. Anything below that would be a disappointment. There are plenty of questions around the SEC, and Auburn has questions of its own, but the Tigers finally have an experienced quarterback with the physical tools to change games. Byrum Brown does not need to put up ridiculous numbers to make thi...

Auburn football expectations are all over the place heading into the 2026 season, but I think some Auburn fans are setting the bar way too low. Eight wins should not sound outrageous for this team. Nine wins should not automatically be dismissed as fan optimism either.
