The Auburn Tigers are in the midst of preparing for this weekend’s game against Ole Miss. Hear head coach Alex Golesh’s assessment of where the team is right now ahead of their matchup against the Rebels

Former Auburn head coach Terry Bowden joins Ronnie Sanders to deliver a blunt assessment of Auburn football’s 38-17 loss to No. 18 LSU and explain why the Tigers cannot panic after one disastrous performance.Bowden says LSU was simply the better football team Saturday. Auburn could not establish its running game, protect Byrum Brown or create the turnovers it needed to keep the game close. LSU held Auburn to 67 rushing yards and recorded seven sacks as the Tigers followed their upset of No. 1 Georgia with their most complete loss of the season.But Bowden pushes back against calls for immediate coaching changes. He explains why firing coordinators, changing play-callers or beginning another reset would only continue the instability that has damaged Auburn’s program. The coaches know what went wrong. The challenge now is correcting what can be fixed without overreacting to criticism from outside the building.Ronnie and Terry also preview Auburn’s road game against Ole Miss. Auburn must reestablish its running game, contain Trinidad Chambliss outside the pocket and win the turnover battle to have a chance in Oxford.National college football analyst Joe Lisi joins the show to examine the growing parity created by NIL and the transfer portal. He also explains why he likes Auburn with 13.5 points against Ole Miss and offers his Week 9 selections.TOPICS COVERED:• Terry Bowden’s blunt assessment of Auburn’s loss to LSU• Why LSU was the better team in all three phases• How LSU neutralized Byrum Brown as a runner• Auburn’s inability to establish its running game• Why the offensive line struggled in pass protection• Auburn allowing seven sacks and 12 tackles for loss• Why Bowden says Auburn cannot panic• The danger of making staff changes after one loss• How constant coaching turnover has hurt Auburn• Why instant analysis does not always produce accurate answers• What Auburn must do to become a more consistent team• How Auburn can respond against Ole Miss• Why the Tigers must win the turnover battle in Oxford• Containing Ole Miss quarterback Trinidad Chambliss• Kewan Lacy’s absence from the Ole Miss backfield• Joe Lisi’s Auburn-Ole Miss betting analysis• How NIL and the transfer portal have increased parity• Why experienced transfers can be more valuable than freshmen• Week 9 college football picks and upset possibilities Auburn visits Ole Miss at 11:45 a.m. CT Saturday, Oct. 31, at Vaught-Hemingway Stadium.
