- Oct 18W 27–24Week 6: at GeorgiaAuburn 27, No. 1 Georgia 24 — holy shit. Down 14–0 in the first quarter, the Tigers ripped off 24 straight, coughed up the lead, then stole the damn thing on a forced fumble and a walk-off McPherson field goal.
- Oct 11ByeBye weekNo game, no new damage: Auburn sat on its ass this week, so it’s still 3–2, still stinging from Knoxville, and next up is a trip to Athens.
- Oct 4L 14–24Week 5: at TennesseeTennessee 24, Auburn 14 — Auburn led at the half, then shit the bed: three giveaways, 11 damn penalties and 220 rushing yards for one Tennessee back.
- Sep 27W 21–15Week 4: vs. VanderbiltAuburn 21, Vanderbilt 15 — a defensive rebound and a huge special-teams play, with an offense that still struggled to sustain production.
- Sep 20L 39–44Week 3: vs. FloridaFlorida 44, Auburn 39 — the late rally could not cover up seven sacks allowed and a defense that struggled to get off the field.
- Sep 13W 43–8Week 2: vs. Southern MissAuburn 43, Southern Miss 8 — more efficient, much less defensive workload, still too sloppy.
