I'm more skeptical of Auburn than most because I don't think bad teams can automatically turn it on and become good with one year of experience, no matter how talented And make no mistake, Auburn was bad. Outside of Bama the only SEC teams they beat all season were godawful LSU and Missouri. And then they somehow lost to Missouri in the conference tourney. Maybe they'll be great but I need a little bit of proof first. Bama had a solid team last year, Auburn games aside.
The thing with Auburn is they've been such a miserable defensive team the last few years and it doesn't seem to change at all. Maybe an extra year of experience together will help, but they just don't ever really seem interested or taught to play good team defense. I'm not sure that is going to get much better.
They will be very talented though.

The new additions will help big time. Davion Mitchell and Chuma Okeke are both known for good defense. Mitchell could end up the starter at PG by SEC play, and Okeke might be a starter game 1. Our 3 players who were best on defense last year, Horace Spencer, Bryce Brown, and Anfernee McClomer will all play more minutes this year. Spencer and Brown are the only 3rd yr players on the roster, and McClomore was a true FR last season.
If Austin Wiley can play the defense will improve by a good margin.
