Prediction:
Auburn has not lost at home this season, but it is also a team that has not exactly been blowing teams out home or away. The last team it defeated a team by as many points as this spread is wide was back on January 22. The Aggies might be the weakest team the Tigers have faced since playing Vanderbilt at home back on January 8, but even that contest was a close decision. I’d rather side with Texas A&M here than bet on a squad that has lacked a knockout punch as of late.
