Power ranking the SEC after week 12: #13 - Auburn

It’s not much of a measuring stick, but would you believe me if I told you that Auburn just had a more efficient offensive performance against Louisiana-Monroe than Texas did?

That would probably muddle some conceptions of each team, but I think it speaks to the fact that Auburn has the talent to put some impressive play together on offense—they just have been patently unable to do so thus far in the year, for whatever reason.

This kept Auburn’s bowl hopes alive, if just barely. The Tigers have games remaining against Texas A&M and Alabama, both of which they’d have to win to get to .500. That’s a tall order if there ever was one.

Of course, they get the Aggies at home at night this upcoming week. You can bet that Jordan-Hare will be rocking for the final home game of the year in 2024 as the Tigers try to play spoiler. As long as they get out of their own way, they might be able to do just that.
