Summary

Auburn Tigers find their quarterback—can this spark a true SEC resurgence in 2026? Zac Blackerby and Darrell Dapprich spotlight Auburn’s most improved position groups, led by a revitalized quarterback room and major sophomore leaps in linebacker and safety. The hosts weigh the emergence of Byrum Brown and a deeper, more efficient approach from new coaching staff, examining how this could change the Tigers’ trajectory. Tight end depth, running back additions, and possible wide receiver regression top the discussion, as Auburn grapples with significant departures on the defensive line and at corner. Is the offensive line’s overhaul a hidden strength or looming concern? Zac Blackerby and Darrell Dapprich debate scheme upgrades under DJ Durkin, roster depth, and the outlook for special teams. Can Auburn’s improvements offset key NFL-bound losses and deliver a breakthrough SEC campaign?

two on the list. It's your number one. It's our consensus, number one, and it's the most important position on a football team. Before I do that, a little teaser, little little tease here.
