The Auburn Tigers (10-3) will face the undefeated UCF Knights on New Year’s Day. The game will be played in the Mercedes Benz Stadium, which Auburn has already experienced once this year against the Georgia Bulldogs in the SEC Championship game which Auburn lost 28-7. Due to the loss against Georgia, Auburn has to suit up in another bowl game other than the playoffs. That being said, the Tigers have a very powerful and fast paced offense led by QB Jarret Stidham. Behind him is running back Kerryon Johnson, who has suffered injuries this year but will be able to play in the peach bowl. UCF on their offensive side of the ball will be led by QB McKenzie Milton who has had pretty decent numbers this year. Obviously that being said they’re still undefeated, but being an Auburn fan I think my Tigers will roll back home to the plains with a big fat W to cap off their successful season.

Auburn is coming in at around a 10 point favorite and is currently sitting at a 9.5 point favorite according to Vegas. Both of these teams have high powered offenses and Vegas expects those offenses to show up in this game with the Over/Under at 67. I think the defenses will come to play and this game will be low scoring with Auburn coming up on top 21-7. Below are some comparisons for the two teams and how they stack up against each other.
