The Auburn Tigers snapped their two-game losing streak witha 26-23 win over Arkansas on Saturday. How will the win impact the rest of the season?
Auburn has three games remaining and, with a 5-4 record, is one win away from being eligible for the postseason for the first time since 2023. ESPN Football Power Index rates the Tigers' chances of winning at least six games at 95%.
It is a safe pick that Auburn will defeat Samford on Nov. 21 to gain that sixth win. Of course, head coach Alex Golesh wants his team to win the rest of their games.
A win over Mississippi State this Saturday would give the Tigers the chance to end the season with seven wins.
