247Sports predicts final record for all 14 SEC teams in 2021

247Sports predicts the overall and conference record for all 14 SEC teams during the 2021 college football season.

No one can predict how a football season will turn out at a 100 percent rate, but it is always good to know what the analysts and experts think of both Auburn and the rest of the SEC going into the fall.

Over at 247Sports, Brad Crawford has gone through all 14 conference teams’ schedules and made his picks for the final record for each one. With four new head coaches heading into the 2021 season including Bryan Harsin at Auburn, it will be intriguing to see how each of these four programs respond while some schools such as LSU and Ole Miss look to rebound from disappointing 2020 campaigns.

Here’s how Crawford has each SEC team finishing the 2021 season.

How many wins would be a successful first season at Auburn for Bryan Harsin?

Way-too-early Auburn football game-by-game predictions for 2021

The staff writers of The Auburn Wire take a look at their game-by-game predictions for the Tigers in the 2021 season.

On Sept. 4 in Jordan-Hare Stadium, a new era begins for Auburn with the Bryan Harsin tenure officially starts as the Tigers take on Akron.

The game against the MAC school should be a cake walk but the Tigers schedule quickly gets tricky and difficult starting with the Week 3 trip to State College to take on Penn State.

Visits to LSU and Texas A&M while hosting Alabama and Georgia means the schedule is once again loaded with tough competition. So how do we think the Tigers will fare in 2021?

Here are The Auburn Wire staff’s way-too-early predictions for each game on the 2021 schedule.

Bryan Harsin on Jordan-Hare Stadium: ‘This should be the toughest place to play in the country’

Twitter reacts as Georgia beats Auburn, punches ticket to SEC Championship Game

Twitter reacts as Georgia football beat Auburn and punched its ticket to the third straight SEC Championship Game.

For the third year in a row, the Georgia Bulldogs are headed to the SEC Championship.

On Saturday night, No. 4 Georgia defeated No. 12 Auburn 21-14 in a game that came down to the wire, even though Georgia dominated the first three quarters.

But in the end, the Dawgs did enough to hold off the pesky Tigers in a deafening Jordan-Hare Stadium.

A few quick stats before we show you our favorite Twitter reactions:

Georgia:

QB Jake Fromm: 13/28, 110 yards, 3 touchdowns, 0 interceptions

RB D’Andre Swift: 17 carries, 106 yards

WR Dominick Blaylock: 2 catches, 50 yards, 1 touchdown

P Jake Camarda: 11 punts for 558 yards (50.7 yards per), 4 inside the 20, long of 67

RB D.J. Williams: 8 carries, 26 yards

Georgia football: Score, stat predictions for UGA vs Auburn

Here are some Georgia football score and stat predictions for the UGA vs Auburn game.

No. 4 Georgia and No. 12 Auburn square off on The Plains at 3:30 p.m. ET on CBS from the Deep South’s Oldest Rivalry.

For Georgia, everything rides on this game. A win secures the Bulldogs a spot in the SEC Championship and gets them one step closer to making a trip to the College Football Playoff.

For Auburn, the Tigers pretty much dictate how the rest of the college football season plays out. Both Georgia and Alabama need to beat Auburn if either want to head to the playoff, meanwhile Oregon, which lost to Auburn early in the season, is hoping that the Tigers can win at least one of two games vs UGA and Bama. If Auburn can win, Oregon’s lone loss becomes a lot more forgivable and gives the Ducks a better argument to the committee at season’s end.

This should be your classic SEC matchup. A good ole fashion bloodbath featuring two of college football’s most physical teams.

Here’s what I see happening today:

Georgia offensive line:

One sack allowed.

On Georgia’s first drive of the game:

The place will be deafening and Georgia will surprise us all with a deep shot. Next thing we know, Georgia is just past midfield. The drive will stall after two runs and an incomplete pass. Jake Camarda pins Auburn inside its own 15 yard line.

On Auburn’s first drive of the game:

Nowhere to go. Auburn had a bye week to prepare for Georgia’s defense, but you can’t prepare for speed and physicality. Georgia allows one first down and then forces a punt.

Georgia Football Week 12: Expert picks and predictions (UGA vs Auburn)

Georgia football expert picks and predictions for UGA vs Auburn. Stats, score, betting predictions.

The Georgia Bulldogs have a chance to go the their 3rd straight SEC Championship game with a win over Auburn this Saturday.

They have already proven that they control their own destiny, winning three straight SEC East games following an overtime loss to South Carolina.

Many counted Georgia out, saying its season was over with that loss, but the Dawgs kept barking and scrapped their way back into the top 4 and in perfect position to make a trip to the SEC Championship, likely against LSU.

But first, Georgia’s focus is on Auburn. A win, and the Dawgs not only secure a trip back to Atlanta, but can start thinking College Football Playoff – though Kirby Smart would never admit that.

This Saturday in Auburn is going to be a bloodbath, as these are two of the most physically dominant teams in college football.

UGA Wire compiled a list of staff predictions, including the game score, spread, over/under, stat lines and more to get you ready for the Deep South’s Oldest Rivalry.
