The Auburn Tigers will travel outside of Jordan-Hare Stadium for the first time this season after beginning the campaign with five straight games there.
Sanford Stadium in Athens, Georgia, is Auburn’s first trip stop. On Saturday night, the No. 5 Georgia Bulldogs, who had not lost a regular season game since 2020, will play Auburn. The squad that succeeded both occasions was Alabama’s Crimson Tide.
Although the Tigers would have a difficult time in winning this game, quarterback Payton Thorne thinks the team can compete with any team in the nation.
They make a fantastic team. They’re a championship team with prior experience,” Thorne remarked. “I hold them in high regard. You also take away from last year that we are capable of competing against the best teams in the nation. We repeatedly demonstrated that.
Thorne went into further detail about what it would take to pull off such an upset.
According to Thorne, “for us, it’s about putting together, executing, a good week’s work in practice.” “Believing in the guidance provided by our coaches and striving to perform to the best of our abilities on Saturday to reach the end zone.”
Thorne has had an up-and-down season, including a period on the bench. Thorne has made an effort to ignore the outer world and stay concentrated throughout.
According to Thorne, “you obviously try to be as consistent as you can in your weekly preparation and your mindset.” “That’s not always feasible.” You will feel and experience different emotions at different times while you are in different settings. I tried my best to take what I could from the circumstance.
Auburn is a 24-point underdog when they play Georgia. The Tigers’ odds of winning are only 8.8% according to ESPN. The game will begin at 2:30 p.m. CT. ABC will air the television program, and ESPN+ will stream it live.
