FYI, in the latest ranking of all 133 FBS teams by The Athletic, NMSU comes in at #60

other AU opponents, from lowest to highest:

#120 UMass
#111 Vandy
#81 Arky
#80 MSU
#66 Cal
——> #41 AU <——
#39 TAMU
#13 LSU
#11 Ole Kiff
#1 UGa

so, in the estimation of their algorithm, NMSU will be the best team we will have faced thus far that hasn’t already beaten us

that said, i think we pull it out, but not by as wide a margin as some might think

AU 27-10

I question the algorithm a little bit then… NM St has not faced a P5 team all season… and they’ve been outgained in quite a few of their wins.

That said, it’s a classic trap game… and auburn coming off back to back road games.

41-17… kinda like WKU last yr. I just don’t see this defense giving up 20 pts without some turnovers by the offense (which isn’t out of the question).
