Auburn game-by-game predictions: Running the table possible, but brutal path awaits
By Rob Maxwell
Texas A&M at Auburn
When: Nov. 3
Where: Jordan-Hare Stadium, Auburn
Time: TBD
TV: TBD
I’m not really sure if Auburn should be more worried with Jimbo Fisher on the Texas A&M sideline or Kevin Sumlin. Either way, you always can mark down the Auburn-A&M game was one that is going to cause sleepless nights the week of, nail-biting during and plenty more anxious moments.
And here’s the stat you won’t like: Auburn is 3-2 vs. the Aggies under Malzahn and the Tigers have won all three at College Station and lost both times at Jordan-Hare.
The Aggies have a big-play threat at running back in Trayveon Williams and either Nick Starkel or Kellen Mond will have seized hold of the quarterback reigns by this time of the season. The Aggies could be really good. They could play spoiler, as they often do.
Expect points. Expect a roller-coaster of emotions.
And expect Auburn to snap the trend of visiting team winning in this series.
Prediction: Auburn 34, Texas A&M 28 | Record: 9-0, 6-0
