LSU vs. Auburn: What You Need to Know
Auburn OL Troubles: Regardless of quarterback, Auburn’s offensive line has been terrifying this year. TJ Finley, Robbie Ashford and Holden Geliner are under relentless pressure this year. For Auburn to be successful, that has to change, but now he’s a third-string center against one of the best defensive lines in the country. Auburn has given up his 7.25 tackles per game loss and he has given up 2.75 sacks per game, which is not the recipe for success. The offense has his 32% third down in his conversions which is a big reason why he ranks 13th in the SEC. It’s going to be a long night if Auburn can’t block and move the chain.
Jaden Daniels’ quiet successes: The senior transfer from Arizona State quietly wrapped up one of the best seasons for any quarterback in the conference. Ranked second in rushing among signal callers with 65.5 yards per game (including suck yards). Auburn’s front It’s fascinating to see how his sevens attack him. Derick Hall is a stud away from the edge and while The Plains linebacker has talent, overall the front 7 hasn’t performed anywhere near as expected. LSU coach Brian Kelly has always been creative with how quarterbacks use their legs, so expect him to try to capitalize on Auburn’s front seven in a variety of ways.
Hershin coefficient: According to multiple reports, Hershin could have been sacked as early as last Sunday had the Tigers lost to Missouri, but a 17-14 overtime victory fends off his critics. Players want to win more than anyone else, but having this much chaos swirling in the program can take a toll on your mental health and cause the season to spiral out of control. there is. If Auburn goes flat, that spiral could continue.

LSU vs. Auburn Predictions, Picks
Featured game | | Auburn Tigers vs. LSU Tigers
I don’t trust Auburn’s attack at all, especially against the fast and physical LSU front seven. Plus, I doubt Hershin would use Tank Bigsby’s running back for his entire four quarters. He seemed to have forgotten about Bigsby after the first quarter of last week’s game. LSU takes control of the trenches and drains Auburn’s team, leaving them unable to keep up. Forecast: LSU (-9)
