The 2-4-7: Auburn vs. Missouri
Auburn hopes its immense success in nonconference play was a precursor to another conference championship, and that quest begins Saturday afternoon in Neville Arena. Riding the best resume in college basketball, No. 2 Auburn (12-1) begins conference play against visiting Missouri (11-2), which did not win a single SEC game a year ago but looks much improved in Year 3 under Dennis Gates. Here’s the 2-4-7 preview for Auburn’s start to the SEC schedule, with two matchups to watch, four stats to study and seven quotes of note, as the Tigers look to get off on the right foot in what is one of the less-threatening matchups on the docket, as Missouri is currently one of only four games on Auburn’s SEC slate that isn’t designated as Quadrant 1.

The 2-4-7: Auburn vs. Missouri
This Saturday, the Auburn Tigers will face off against the Missouri Tigers in a highly anticipated SEC matchup. Both teams come into the game with a 2-4 record, making this a crucial game for both programs as they look to turn their seasons around.
Auburn, led by head coach Bryan Harsin, has shown flashes of potential this season but has struggled to put together consistent performances. They will look to rely on their dynamic offense, led by quarterback Bo Nix, to put up points against a tough Missouri defense.
On the other side, Missouri will look to bounce back from a tough loss to Texas A&M last week. Head coach Eli Drinkwitz will look to his quarterback Connor Bazelak to lead the offense and put pressure on Auburn’s defense.
Both teams will be looking to secure a much-needed win in this matchup, and fans can expect a hard-fought battle from start to finish. Be sure to tune in to see which Tigers come out on top in this SEC showdown.
