Spread Pick for South Alabama vs. Auburn
- Auburn Tigers -24.5 (4 Units)
The Tigers have won two straight games, while the Jaguars have split their two games. Auburn has the edge because they are one of the best in the country when it comes to running the ball, and it’s facing a team that has been unable to stop the run and is giving up more than 240 yards per game on the ground, so expect the Tigers to have their way offensively in this game.
Scoring will also be an issue for the Jaguars because they also love to run the ball, but they won’t be able to do so efficiently against a team that is giving up less than 50 rushing yards per game. With the Jaguars being unable to run the ball, expect the Tigers to keep pressure on Davenport and force him to make costly mistakes. Go with Auburn to cover the spread.
Over/Under Pick for South Alabama vs. Auburn
- Under 55 (4 Units)
The Tigers played under the total in two of their last three games. Auburn averages 40 points per game. They run the ball 60 percent of the time, which will consume a lot of the clock, and they’re facing a team that is 125th in the country against the run, and is giving up 27 points per game. The Jaguars average 34.5 points per game. They run the ball 62 percent of the time, and they’re facing a team that is third in the nation against the run and gave up three points in their lone home game. Don't expect these teams to score enough points to push the score over the total.
