Projecting betting lines for the rest of Auburn's season

Before the season, I projected Auburn's Vegas-style win total at 8.5, due to a particularly daunting schedule and a below-average Gus Malzahn-era running game.

All that has played out as expected. I lean toward an 8-4 regular-season finish as of today (more on that later).

Auburn currently is rushing for 199.3 yards per game on 4.5 yards per carry. If we assume the Tigers will play in 13 games, including a bowl, that's on pace for 2,591 rushing yards this season.

Based on Auburn's recent history, that would suggest a post-bowl game record of about 8-5.
