Upset alert: Tracking the most dangerous trap game for every SEC team in 2024
Trap games for every SEC team - Auburn Tigers
The Tigers have a slow ramp-up to a very tough schedule that includes the rare three straight road games in the SEC. Their first three games—against Alabama A&M, Cal, and New Mexico—should be pretty easy wins, despite last year’s contest against the Golden Bears being a late-night escape out in Berkeley.
Right after these first three, though, the Tigers host Arkansas. The Hogs may already be a desperate team by this point if they lose to Oklahoma State in Stillwater, and the Tigers have the definite potential to be looking ahead to the next week’s matchup against OU.
This isn’t one that I would favor the Hogs in if I was setting odds, but Auburn is certainly vulnerable. The Tigers stomped a mudhole in the Hogs last time the two met, so that makes the Hogs even easier to overlook. This could be a tricky one for the Plainsmen, though.
