    FIRST CALL | Alex Golesh Sends a MESSAGE! Can Auburn SHOCK No. 1 Georgia?

    Auburn football faces No. 1 Georgia without Xavier Atkins, but could Alex Golesh's biggest disciplinary decision actually help establish the standard the Tigers need moving forward? On today's Auburn Daily First Call, we discuss the fallout from Atkins being ruled out against Georgia, what his absence means for DJ Durkin's defense and whether Auburn can show meaningful improvement following its bye week. Alex Golesh addressed the Xavier Atkins situation during his Monday press conference but declined to provide further details, saying the matter would remain internal. Could his decision send a message to the entire Auburn roster that no player is above the team's standards? We examine the opportunities now facing Elijah Melendez, Bryce Deas and DeMarcus Riddick, along with other linebackers who could see additional snaps against Georgia. But what would a successful bye week actually look like for Auburn? Fewer penalties, improved tackling, better execution and a more consistent offensive identity would all represent meaningful progress, regardless of the final score. Then we take a completely different approach. What happens if Auburn actually beats Georgia? Could an upset of the nation's No. 1 team put the Tigers back into the College Football Playoff conversation? We explore the possibilities, including defensive touchdowns, special teams game-changers, a breakout performance from Rayshawn Pleasant and the importance of limiting Georgia's rushing attack. Could Auburn hold the Bulldogs under 130 rushing yards? Could Gunner Stockton make a critical mistake? And could one explosive play completely change the momentum in Athens? Plus, we discuss what an upset would mean for Golesh's first season and whether the Tigers could turn their entire year around with one victory. Auburn is a massive underdog. But what if the impossible actually happens? #AuburnFootball #AuburnTigers #WarEagle Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

    FIRST CALL | Alex Golesh MUST FIX These 5 Auburn Problems!

    Auburn football is coming out of its bye week with five major questions, and Alex Golesh faces his toughest challenge yet against No. 1 Georgia. Can the Tigers finally show meaningful improvement after their frustrating loss to Tennessee? The Auburn Tigers have had two weeks to address their mistakes, but fixing everything against one of the best teams in college football won't be easy. On Auburn Daily's First Call, we're joined by Darrell Dapprich to break down five things we need to see from Auburn following its bye week. First, has Auburn's offensive play-calling actually improved? Golesh and offensive coordinator Joel Gordon have struggled to establish consistency, while penalties and questionable decisions have repeatedly stalled drives. Second, will Auburn finally commit to its running backs? Omar Mabson has made a strong case for more opportunities, but should he replace Jeremiah Cobb as Auburn's starting running back? We discuss why both players deserve more touches and whether the Tigers can establish their rushing attack against Georgia. Third, Auburn's special teams decisions need attention. From questionable fair catches inside the 10-yard line to poor field position, the Tigers continue making life harder on their offense. Fourth, can DJ Durkin fix Auburn's run defense? After struggling against Florida's Jadan Baugh and Tennessee's DeSean Bishop, Auburn now faces a Georgia rushing attack averaging more than 200 yards per game. Finally, will younger players receive more opportunities? We discuss potential increased roles for Deshawn Spencer, Gavin Jenkins and other developing players as Auburn begins preparing for its future. Plus, Darrell shares his experience inside one of the most hostile college football environments he's ever witnessed. Auburn doesn't have to beat Georgia to demonstrate progress. But the Tigers need to prove that something actually changed during the bye week. #AuburnFootball #AuburnTigers #WarEagle Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
