Auburn football is coming off a frustrating loss to LSU just one week after its historic upset of Georgia. Was the win in Athens a fluke, or can Alex Golesh and the Tigers still turn this season into a success? On Monday's First Call, Christian Rauh and Darrell Dapprich discuss where Auburn goes from here after falling to 4-3 and what the Tigers' inconsistent performances reveal about the program. Auburn proved it could compete with the nation's best by defeating Georgia on the road for the first time since 2005. But LSU brought the Tigers back to reality with a disappointing performance at Jordan-Hare Stadium. Does one loss erase everything Auburn accomplished in Athens? We discuss why the answer might be somewhere in the middle and why fans shouldn't overreact to either result. Alex Golesh is still in his first season, working with a roster built through a shortened transfer portal and recruiting process. Growing pains were always possible, but how much patience should Auburn fans have? Plus, Darrell shares his experience inside the LSU radio booth before Saturday's game, including an interesting pregame note about stopping Byrum Brown's rushing ability. We also look ahead to Auburn's upcoming road matchup against Ole Miss. Lane Kiffin's Rebels are coming off a loss to Texas, and their defense could present opportunities for Auburn's offense. Can Byrum Brown and Jeremiah Cobb help Auburn win a high-scoring game in Oxford? And would a seven-win regular season, including a historic victory over Georgia, represent meaningful progress in Golesh's first year? There's still plenty to play for, but Auburn must find a way to respond. #AuburnFootball #WarEagle #SECFootball
