Auburn247 Podcast

Auburn vs. Mississippi State pits two teams with the same strengths, weaknesses and questions against each other Saturday in Starkville, Mississippi. Neither team has lit the world on fire with their offenses, but their defensive lines have been absolutely stellar throughout the season. The only big difference is that one team is ranked in the top 10 nationally (Auburn) and the other is coming off disturbing back-to-back losses to Kentucky and Florida in which the Bulldogs scored only 13 points. Still, these teams have a lot more in common than some might think. In fact, one might say it's like looking in the mirror when these two programs meet Saturday inside Davis Wade Stadium. Brandon Marcello hosts a new episode of the Auburn Undercover podcast and previews the upcoming game, and provides his thoughts on both teams, before grabbing more intel from analyst and former Mississippi State quarterback Matt Wyatt, who provides much more information on what's happening in Starkville on the field. 

The Auburn Undercover podcast is a one-man show this week, but do not despair, we do have a guest! AUC editor Brandon Marcello is joined by SEC Network analyst and former Auburn offensive lineman Cole Cubelic to discuss Auburn's offensive woes and much more.

Brandon and Cole discuss Stidham not throwing to wide-open receivers, why the offensive line hasn't quite improved as expected and the guys also look around the SEC to figure out where the Tigers stand in the pack. Brandon also gives a brief preview of Southern Miss and why the offense could have issues against the Golden Eagles' defense this weekend before hitting the road for a crucial stretch that starts with Mississippi State in Starkville next week.

The Auburn Roundtable returns to discuss No. 7 Auburn's big showdown against No. 12 LSU and much more on a jam-packed episode of the Auburn Undercover Podcast. Auburn Undercover's Brandon Marcello, Keith Niebuhr and Phillip Marshall discuss the game, why they believe LSU quarterback Joe Burrow is in for a rude awakening inside Jordan-Hare Stadium, the concerns with Auburn's running game, the strengths of LSU's defensive line, why the numbers may skew things for LSU's running attack and much more.

The Auburn Undercover Roundtable returns to review the Tigers' 21-16 victory against Washington and what it means going forward this season. Auburn Undercover editor Brandon Marcello, publisher Ronnie Sanders, columnist Phillip Marshall and recruiting analyst Keith Niebuhr discuss the Tigers and more fallout from Week 1. Is the Auburn running game something to worry about? What can Auburn do to correct its issues with run blocking and the lack of touchdowns in the red zone? The guys ponder those questions and more, and give kudos to the gutsy play calls on offense and defense in the fourth quarter that proved to be the difference in the game. The guys also discuss the other big games from Week 1 and whether LSU is getting too much credit for knocking off Miami on Sunday. Plus, the Auburn Undercover crew discusses the mess at Florida State, Jimbo Fisher's debut at Texas A&M, the games we have our eyes on this weekend and what we expect to see Saturday when Auburn hosts FCS foe Alabama State inside Jordan-Hare Stadium.

Brandon Marcello is amped up for his latest podcast. He has thoughts — oh, he has thoughts! — on Tony Barbee's denial of sub-tweeting Auburn during its blowout in the NCAA Tournament. That's not all he talks about in the latest episode of the Auburn Undercover podcast, however.

The guys discuss that, NCAA Tournament seeding and spring football practice, and also answer listener questions in this latest episode of the Auburn Undercover podcast presented by WeHaveDoughnuts.com.

Auburn basketball had three games to wrap up the SEC and now it comes down to the season finale. Can Auburn fight off its tired legs, lack of depth and uneven play on defense to knock off South Carolina and win its first SEC title since 1999?
