Auburn Tigers College Football Betting

It has been a solid start for new head coach Hugh Freeze and the Auburn Tigers. A 3-0 start was expected, and Freeze has delivered. But the best accomplishment for Freeze has been the restoration of full faith by War Eagle Nation. Auburn fans are signing from the Freeze Hymnal. And gamblers are taking notice as well. Saturday brings the biggest test of the young campaign. Auburn is at Texas A&M to face a desperate Aggie team.

Auburn Tigers Weekly Matchup

On Saturday, September 23, 2023, the Auburn Tigers of the SEC will visit the Texas A&M Aggies of the SEC at Kyle Field, College Station, TX. Kickoff time is 12 p.m. ET, with television coverage on ESPN.

Last game, the Texas A&M Aggies won 47-3 against the ULM Warhawks as 37-point home favorites. The game went under the total of 53.5. Texas A&M has a record of 2-1 straight up, 2-1 against the spread, and 2-1 over/under the total. Texas A&M ranks 28th for total offense, 11th for passing, 97th for rushing and 13th for scoring. Defensively, they rank 38th overall, 54th against the pass, 36th against the rush, and 56th for points allowed. Also, Texas A&M ranks 67th for fewest turnovers lost and 120th for takeaways.

Conner Weigman threw for 337 yards and a touchdown and ran for another score in less than three quarters to lead Texas A&M to a rout of Louisiana-Monroe. Texas A&M easily handled Louisiana-Monroe, which plays in the Sun Belt Conference, to bounce back after dropping out of the Top 25 following a 48-33 loss at Miami last week.

Both of Weigman’s touchdowns came in the first half as A&M built a 27-3 lead after the kickoff was delayed by an hour due to lightning in the area.

A 21-yard scoring run by Rueben Owens extended the lead to 37-3 with about six minutes left in the third quarter. The Aggies got a stop on defense, and backup Max Johnson took over for Weigman with about five minutes left in the quarter.

Jahdae Walker had a career-high 110 yards receiving with a touchdown, and Ainias Smith added 127 yards receiving for his fifth career 100-yard game. Texas A&M used five different running backs that combined for 158 yards rushing. The group was led by Owens, who finished with eight carries for 51 yards. The Aggies piled up 557 yards of offense while holding Louisiana-Monroe to just 222. The Warhawks didn’t convert a third down until late in the fourth quarter and finished 1 of 12.

Auburn Tigers Weekly Recap

Last game, the Auburn Tigers won 45-13 against Samford as 37.5-point home favorites. The game went over the total of 37.5. Auburn has a record of 3-0 straight up, 1-2 against the spread, and 1-2 over/under the total. Auburn ranks 49th for total offense, 89th for passing, 16th for rushing and 28th for scoring. Defensively, they rank 15th overall, 13th against the pass, 43rd against the rush, and 18th for points allowed. Also, Auburn ranks 129th for fewest turnovers lost and 13th for takeaways.

Payton Thorne passed for 282 yards and a touchdown and ran for 123 yards and two more scores to lead Auburn to a victory over Samford. Thorne had easily his biggest game with the Tigers despite throwing a pair of interceptions in the end zone against the Bulldogs, an FCS team.

The graduate transfer from Michigan State completed 24 of 32 passes and did his rushing damage on 11 carries, producing four passes and a rush of 30-plus yards. He came into the game with 235 passing yards and 17 rushing yards through two games, splitting time with last year’s starter, Robby Ashford. Ashford also ran and passed for TDs.

Thorne is the first Auburn quarterback since Nick Marshall in 2014 against Mississippi State to rush for 100 yards and pass for 200 yards in a game.

Held to 94 passing yards against California, Thorne had a 32-yard touchdown pass to Shane Hooks, scoring runs of 5 and 18 yards. It was the first Auburn touchdown catch for Hooks, a Jackson State transfer, and the Tigers' longest scoring pass of the season.

An offense that sputtered badly in a 14-10 win over California still had issues, particularly with the two red zone turnovers.

2023 Auburn Tigers Football Schedule

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.

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.
