Auburn comes into this game looking for a big win to turn around a so-far disappointing season. The Tigers are on a 2-game skid, with both losses coming against SEC opponents – first at home to LSU 21-17 Oct. 1, then at No. 2 Georgia 42-10 last week. This will be the Tigers’ 4th straight game vs. an SEC foe, with their lone conference win coming at home vs. Missouri in a 17-14 OT victory Sept. 24. They are led by QB Robby Ashford, who has completed only 48.0% of his passes (59 of 123 attempts) for 874 yards with only 4 TDs vs. 3 interceptions.
Ole Miss is looking another big win vs. an SEC opponent. This will be the Rebels’ 3rd straight game vs. a conference opponent, winning the previous two – first vs. then No. 8 Kentucky 22-19, then at Vanderbilt 52-28 last Saturday. They are led by QB Jaxson Dart, who has completed 63.6% of his passes (91 of 143) for 1,358 yards with 8 TDs compared to 5 interceptions.
