At the start of this year, not much was expected of Auburn. They were an intriguing team, but no one expected them to be a threat in the SEC. Now as the regular season winds down, no team in America wants to see the Tigers on their schedule. Unfortunately for Mizzou, their path to extending their season runs through Auburn.
The opposing Tigers come into this series red-hot. They’ve picked off four consecutive series wins, including ones over South Carolina and LSU, and they might have the only offense in better form than Missouri’s right now. To make things worse for Mizzou, the Tigers are just 1-11 in road SEC games this year, and they need to win three this weekend.
