In trying to find an angle to hit while previewing this game, it was a little difficult. Auburn sucked last weekend against Georgia, really bringing the expectations down to a minimum and starting the “FAHRR GUS” chatter as early as it’s ever been (save from 2016 Clemson: The Whirlybird Affair). We know a few things to be true heading into the Arkansas tilt —
- Gus Malzahn needs to bounce back to keep the heat on his chair at a low simmer.
- Auburn needs to bounce back on both sides of the ball to prevent fans from predicting a winless finish to the season.
