2024 Auburn Tigers College Football Betting

Last year, the Auburn Tigers finished with a disappointing loss in the Music City Bowl to end Hugh Freeze’s first season at 6-7. It was the fourth consecutive season that Auburn could not reach the 7-win plateau. But there is optimism on the plains that better days are ahead. Head coach Hugh Freeze is considered an asset that will build Auburn up to its past levels of success under Gus Malzahn before he ran out of steam. With the retirement of Alabama coach Nick Saban, the rest of the SEC believes that all things are possible.

Auburn hopes to make a splash in coach Hugh Freeze’s second season. The schedule is more manageable than it has been in a long time. Quarterback Payton Thorne will have a better cast around him, and a more organized system should keep the offense on the field longer than in previous seasons.

Auburn’s offense needed a revamp after the first year of the Hugh Freeze era. The Tigers had the worst passing offense in the SEC (162.2 ypg) despite the presence of experienced quarterback Payton Thorne, so they revamped the wide receiver room by bringing in four talented true freshmen, including Cam Coleman, who stole the show this spring, and Perry Thompson.

Freeze also added experienced transfers like Robert Lewis from Georgia State and KeAndre Lambert-Smith from Penn State. Freeze, known for his offense and play-calling, is expected to take a larger role in the offense this season.

The Tigers return their entire running back room, headlined by the trio of Jarquez Hunter, Damari Alston, and Jeremiah Cobb. The Tigers were fourth in the SEC in rushing yards per game (189.0) in 2023. With the passing game presenting more of a threat this season, the expectation is for the rushing game to be just as productive as it was last season.

Auburn parted ways with defensive coordinator Ron Roberts and hired former Texas A&M DC DJ Durkin. The Tigers have also added depth at positions of need.

Auburn did lose some key pieces to the NFL and graduation. Still, the Tigers should be more of a threat to get to the passer in 2024 than a season ago.

The Auburn Tigers made more news in the offseason than in the 2021 campaign. After a hot start, new head coach Bryan Harsin saw his team fade down the stretch to finish 6-7. Worst of all, clock mismanagement cost War Eagle a win in the Iron Bowl against Alabama. That led to a poor recruiting class, at least by Auburn and SEC standards.

Auburn has long been known for its meddlesome boosters. And in spring 2022, those big money donors had a bellyful of Harsin. While Harsin was out of the country on vacation, the Auburn boosters circulated stories on social media that he was having an affair with a young female staffer. They even circulated pictures of the woman. It was all fabricated. But Harsin did not make it to the end of 2022.

Now Hugh Freeze, who was fired at Ole Miss for contacting hookers on his burner phone while thumping his Bible on Twitter, is in his second season. To his credit, Freeze is a highly regarded football mind and strong recruiter.

Despite a strong and proud football history, the Auburn Tigers have always played in the state's shadow of the Alabama Crimson Tide.

Auburn has two claimed and four unclaimed national championships. The Tigers have won the SEC championship 16 times. They have boasted three Heisman Trophy winners and 31 consensus All-Americans.

Head coaches Ralph Jordan and Pat Dye are Auburn legends. Jordan won a national championship, as did Gene Chizik. Tommy Tuberville and Gus Malzahn are other Auburn coaches that found success on the Plains.

Cam Newton, Pat Sullivan, Bo Jackson, and Terry Beasley are among the legendary Auburn players that have worn the blue and orange.
