Auburn football suffered a 38-17 loss to LSU, hindering their momentum after a notable win against Georgia. The Tigers, now 4-3, have five remaining games this season, including matchups against Arkansas, Mississippi State, and Samford, which could allow them to finish with a 7-5 record.

Improvements are needed, particularly on offense and defense, but Auburn still has a path to bowl eligibility in Alex Golesh's first season.
