Saturday Blitz Vegas SEC Prediction: Auburn Wins 34-10

As the biggest cheerleaders for the Texas A&M Aggies and Kevin Sumlin at the beginning of the year, there is no way we can be that way for right now. This team looked bad in its loss to Mississippi State, terrible in its blowout loss to Ole Miss, and flat-out awful in its loss to Alabama. But barely beating Louisiana-Monroe takes the cake.

The Aggies clearly have serious issues on the offensive line and on defense that Sumlin needs to fix, and without Kenny Hill in the lineup, there is absolutely nothing for us to suggest that they could pull off the upset Saturday. On the road, Kyle Allen is not ready to handle this environment.

Auburn not only has a dominant offense that will torch Texas A&M’s defense. Texas A&M’s offense is in a serious funk, and the Tigers have a defense that will dominate them.

In fact, the Aggies have a defense that we believe is getting better. It’s the issues on offense that will keep this team from being in the game on Saturday. That is why we are picking Auburn to win 34-10.
