Auburn has won two games in a row and can reach bowl eligibility with a win Saturday on the road at Arkansas.
Can they get it done? Oddsmakers and ESPN analytics expect the Tigers to make it a close game but ultimately forecast the Tigers to lose. BetMGM lists Arkansas as a three-point favorite while ESPN gives the Razorbacks a 54% chance to win at home.
Arkansas may be the favorite, but there are many factors that could lead Auburn to an upset win. Ahead of the game, the Auburn Wire staff took time to discuss all of those aspects in this week’s Roundtable. Can Payton Thorne lead Auburn to its third-straight SEC win? Can Auburn’s defense keep Arkansas’ offense from becoming too successful? Which SEC games outside of Auburn-Arkansas have the chance to be the best of the weekend?
Writers Taylor Jones, JD McCarthy, and Brian Hauch weigh in on those questions, as well as many others surrounding Auburn in this week’s Auburn Wire roundtable.
