Auburn vs. South Carolina Football Pick & Prediction
3 min readThis Saturday night game has the Auburn Tigers (6-4) at South Carolina (5-5) in what is an important match up for both sides.
Auburn gave up a 28-3 second quarter lead last week in a 43-34 home loss to Mississippi State and once again it’s a coin flip this weekend trying to figure who will be under center to take the snaps for the Tigers.
The Tigers will be without starting quarterback Bo Nix, who broke his right ankle against Mississippi State last week.
In steps T.J. Finley, a former starting QB in the SEC at LSU last season, for Auburn.
The Tigers fell out of the Top 25 and will be looking for something postive to go thier way this weekend.
The Gamecocks (5-5, 2-5) are searching for one more win to become bowl eligible.
