Auburn Loses 4th Straight as Ole Miss Impresses

AUBURN @ MISSISSIPPI- Mississippi 17-7

MISSISSIPPI- Both teams came in with the SAME conference and overall record. Ole Miss matched Auburn’s slow paced style early by punting and stalling throughout the opening quarter and a half. But, eventually the Rebels were able to get things going on offense and led a 85 yard scoring drive at the end of the first half to enter halftime at 10-0. With the lead the Rebels were able to dominate the second half of play. The Rebels intercepted Kodi Burns THREE times in the Auburn red zone and tacked on an additional touchdown to guarantee the win....This win gives Ole Miss its first 2 game win steak since 2004. Next up for the Rebels is a BYE and Louisiana Monroe on November 13^th. Also with this win, the rebels are a win away from bowl eligibility…

AUBURN- The Tigers struggles continued this week as they lost their 4^th straight game. FOR THE FIRST TIME ALL SEASON, the Tigers trailed at half time and only amounted to 71 total yards. The second half was a little more productive, as the offense came alive with 305 passing yards from Kodi Burns and a touchdown run by Ben Tate. The massive amounts of passing yards did not convert into any AUBURN points because Burns threw 3 costly red zone interceptions. The Auburn Tigers have been haunted all season by turnovers as they rank 73^rd in the country in turnover margin. It has been a long while since Auburn has dropped four straight. Hopefully, the Tigers can build on the offensive production against UT- Martin next week, as they host Georgia in two weeks.
