Week 3 – Sept. 19: Home vs. Auburn, Tiger Stadium Baton Rouge, Louisiana
This early season test of national powerhouses will draw a line in the sand in the SEC West that is sure to be jumped over, crossed through and completely blurred by the end of the 2015 season.
The line I’m talking about – the line that shows the outcomes of the games involving the top four SEC West teams in 2015 (Alabama, Auburn, LSU and Ole Miss) – will be nonexistent after these top programs battle it out and ruin each others records in 2015.
LSU will win this close game against the Auburn Tigers as Jeremy Johnson struggles to lead his team to victory in week three. Last season, Auburn blew out LSU in Jordan-Hare Stadium 41-7.
The game will be decided by one score and will showcase LSU’s revamped defense, led by the defensive back unit and junior cornerback Tre’Davious White.
Record after week three: 3-0
Next: Week 4: Syracuse
