Now, with Lane Kiffin and LSU coming to town, the biggest question surrounding Alex Golesh and the Auburn Tigers is whether that historic victory was a fluke or the beginning of something much bigger.

Auburn football just shocked the college football world by knocking off No. 1 Georgia in Athens for the first time since 2005! Now the Auburn Tigers return to Jordan-Hare Stadium for another massive SEC showdown against Lane Kiffin and the LSU Tigers. But here's the question: Which team needs this win more? On this episode of the Auburn Express, Mike G and Brett Pritchard break down the stakes of Auburn vs LSU, Alex Golesh's opportunity to build momentum, and whether Auburn's rushing attack can deliver another statement performance. LSU entered the 2026 college football season with championship expectations. After investing heavily in Lane Kiffin and rebuilding the roster through the transfer portal, the Bayou Bengals are staring at the possibility of a third conference loss before November. Another defeat could effectively eliminate LSU from College Football Playoff contention. For Auburn, the stakes are different. The Tigers finally delivered the signature victory fans have been waiting for, but beating Georgia means a lot less if Auburn turns around and loses at home to LSU. Learn more about your ad choices.

Alex Golesh and the Auburn Tigers delivered one of the biggest wins the program has seen in years, overcoming a 14 point deficit and finding a way to beat Georgia on the road. But as incredible as that victory was, Auburn can't afford to spend the next week celebrating while LSU prepares to come into Jordan-Hare Stadium. The challenge now is simple. Stack wins. Auburn's defense gave the offense opportunities against Georgia, and Alex McPherson delivered the game winning field goal when the Tigers needed him most. Now Auburn needs that same combination of defensive pressure, timely offense, and special teams execution against LSU. And there's a potential weakness Auburn absolutely needs to attack. LSU quarterback Sam Leavitt has struggled with interceptions, and the discussion centers on whether Auburn's defense can force him into the same types of mistakes that helped turn the Georgia game around. If Auburn can create turnovers, capitalize on short fields, and avoid beating itself, there's every reason to believe the Tigers can compete at home. But there's another concern that can't be ignored: quarterback depth. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Where are all the people who said Auburn couldn't compete? Where are the fans who predicted the Tigers wouldn't even make a bowl game? After Auburn's first two losses, there was plenty of criticism directed at Alex Golesh, Byrum Brown, and the entire program. Now Auburn has four wins, including a massive comeback victory against Georgia, and the conversation looks completely different. But this wasn't just about Georgia making mistakes. Auburn's defense made legitimate football plays. The Tigers capitalized on inaccurate throws, showed excellent ball skills in the secondary, and turned Georgia's mistakes into opportunities. Those interceptions didn't catch themselves. And offensively, Auburn finally looked like the team fans expected to see when Alex Golesh arrived. Learn more about your ad choices.

Alex Golesh and the Auburn Tigers now have something they've desperately needed on the recruiting trail: proof that Auburn can beat elite SEC competition. For years, opposing programs have had an easy recruiting pitch against Auburn. The Tigers weren't winning enough, struggled to retain highly rated players, and hadn't given top recruits much reason to believe the program was moving forward. That conversation just got a lot more interesting. After Auburn's historic victory over Georgia, Alex Golesh can walk into recruiting conversations and point to a win against one of the premier programs in college football. Elite recruits want NIL opportunities, but they also want development, coaching, and an opportunity to win meaningful games. And that's exactly what Auburn is trying to build.

After falling behind by 14 points in Athens, Auburn fought back to beat Georgia in one of the most important victories the Tigers have experienced in years. And for a fan base that has endured season after season of frustration, this wasn't just another SEC win. This was proof that Auburn football can still compete with the best teams in college football. But here's the question: How can anybody look at what Alex Golesh has accomplished through his first six games and say he isn't a good football coach? Auburn has already demonstrated an ability to win close games, overcome adversity, and execute in critical situations. The comeback against Georgia may have been the program's biggest since the 2019 victory over Oregon. And the offensive adjustments deserve attention. Auburn's tempo created problems for Georgia's defense, preventing substitutions and allowing the Tigers to take advantage of favorable matchups. That aggressive approach is exactly what the Alex Golesh offense is supposed to look like. But the biggest story might be what this victory means beyond the field. Learn more about your ad choices.

After falling behind 14-0 in Athens, Auburn outscored Georgia 27-10 the rest of the way to deliver one of the biggest wins in recent program history. But this wasn't just about beating Kirby Smart and the Bulldogs. This was about proving Auburn is moving in the right direction under Alex Golesh. And some jobs may have been saved in the process. Auburn's offense had struggled through the first five games of the season, raising legitimate questions about whether the coaching staff could turn things around. But against Georgia, the Tigers finally showed the offensive improvement fans had been waiting to see. Winning changes the conversation. And if Auburn can follow this victory with another big performance against Lane Kiffin and LSU, the pressure surrounding the program could look completely different. Defensively, Elijah Melendez delivered another impressive performance and continued establishing himself as one of Auburn's most important players. With Xavier Atkins unavailable, Auburn needed its linebacker depth to step up, and Bryce Diaz answered the call. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

AUBURN FOOTBALL JUST BEAT GEORGIA, AND THE BIGGEST QUESTION NOW IS SIMPLE: WHO CAN'T THE TIGERS BEAT? After taking down the nation's No. 1 team in Athens, Auburn has completely changed the conversation surrounding its season. But this wasn't some lucky win where everything had to go perfectly. Auburn beat Georgia by doing something the Tigers had struggled to do all season: running the football effectively while stopping the opponent from doing the same thing. Byrum Brown finally looked like the elite rushing quarterback Auburn fans expected when he arrived. His ability to make plays with his legs, combined with a more effective rushing attack, helped Auburn control possession and keep Georgia's offense watching from the sideline. Georgia managed just 113 rushing yards, forcing Gunnar Stockton into situations where he had to make plays through the air. That resulted in three turnovers, while Auburn finished the game without giving the football away. That's how Auburn won this game. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

On this edition of the Auburn Express, powered by The War Rapport, we're breaking down the Auburn vs LSU matchup, what Auburn must do to win, and why this game could completely change the trajectory of the Tigers' 2026 season.

But quarterback Sam Leavitt has also struggled with interceptions, and Auburn's defense just forced three turnovers against Georgia. Can DJ Durkin's defense create similar problems for LSU?
