Auburn avoided disaster with a 78-75 victory at Georgia, and now the eyes are set on the horizon: three top-tier teams to end the regular season. The NCAA's NET rankings have placed Auburn at No. 23 entering the final week of the season as the Tigers prepare to face teams all considered "quadrant 1" opponents: Mississippi State, Alabama and Tennessee. Victories will mean improved seeding for the Tigers, who avoided the NCAA Tournament bubble with a win Wednesday at lowly Georgia. Auburn shouldn't look at the next three games as challenges. No, these are opportunities to improve Auburn's spot in NCAA Tournament bracket (unless the Tigers crumble down the stretch and land on the bubble with an 0-4 mark, including a loss in the SEC Tournament). Brandon Marcello breaks down the numbers, key injuries and much more in the newest episode of the Auburn Undercover podcast. The senior editor for AUC also discusses what the elevation of Travis Williams to co-defensive coordinator on the football field means for the coach and the program. He also answers listeners' questions concerning Auburn football and the always-popular football complex.
