As Auburn heads into the second month of the 2015 season, the Tigers are already virtually eliminated from accomplishing their biggest preseason goals—returning to the SEC and national title pictures.
Auburn will be looking for its first complete performance of the year this Saturday against San Jose State, a fellow 2-2 team that the Tigers routed 59-13 early in 2014.
However, this year's Auburn team hasn't shown nearly that same amount of high-scoring potential on offense, as a surprising quarterback change last week prompted a few improvements but ultimately zero touchdowns against SEC West rival Mississippi State.
Auburn's defense is hoping to build on last weekend's performance against the Bulldogs, which featured excellent run-stopping and a second-half surge. The Tigers will most likely need that same level of play again, as their Mountain West opponents this week are coming off a monster offensive showcase in a rivalry win.
