SEC Football: The Auburn Tigers and the Texas A&M Aggies are each looking to lock up bowl eligibility this afternoon.
The Texas A&M Aggies and the Auburn Tigers both had high hopes for what this season could be. Now, the Tigers and the Aggies have identical 5-3 overall records and have fallen somewhat short of the hype that each team received coming into the season. Today, these two teams face off in an interesting SEC football game.
Jimbo Fisher’s first year has been solid though. Gus Malzahn’s sixth year should have been better up to this point than what it has been. The Aggies weren’t realistically expecting drastic improvements overnight, but Fisher has solidified his team’s defense and it looks better than in the past. The Tigers were expecting to get back to Atlanta, but that’s not happening this season.
