Game #4 of five straight home games. Auburn is 1 and 1 after beating Alabama A & M 73-3 then losing 21 to 14 in a bad, embarrassing loss. Hank Brown gains the start over Payton Thorne. I say why not. Let's give the #2 QB a chance given Thorne's 4 interceptions last week. Not sure how wet the field is with rain the last few days over the state.

Game 2 on ESPN2 kickoff at 2 at Jordan Hare. Auburn is a 13 point favorite.
FIRST QUARTER
Here we go again. It's game week. The Tigers start with 5 straight home games. It is imperative to get off to a strong start. Alabama A & M isn't expected to provide much competition yet I hope look crisp and ready to play. Most predictions are like 7 & 5 or 8 & 4. Lots of new faces. New offensive coordinator thank goodness. Payton Thorne is what he is. Let's hope he's improved.
Most of the talk preseason this yr has been who will the backup to Payton Thorne. The Word is out today: It's Hank Brown, the RS Freshman over Geriner the RS sophomore. Not surprised. A week from Saturday it starts with Alabama A & M. The rest of the talk is just talk. I do not pay much attention to it.
