    Diego Pavia He first put his name on the map in 2023 when he took New Mexico State football to Auburn’s Jordan-Hare Stadium and led the Aggies to a 31-10 victory.

    Now Pavia hopes to work the same kind of magic vanderbilt (5-3, 2-2 SEC) aims for bowl eligibility with a matchup at Auburn (3-5, 1-4) on Saturday (11:45 CT, SEC Network).

    Christian James (back) and BJ Diakite (turfback) will not play for the Commodores must be injuredHowever, other players are also expected to be ready. This includes Pavia, who has resumed full training despite suffering knee and shoulder injuries in recent weeks.

    Here’s everything you need to know about the matchup:

    Vanderbilt has never won at Jordan-Hare Stadium

    Vanderbilt competes with a 21-22-1 all-time record against Auburn. But most of these victories came in the first half of the 20th century. The Commodores suffered 13 consecutive losses in the series between 1978 and 2007.

    Vanderbilt has never won at Jordan-Hare either. The Commodores’ only two wins in the series since 1955 came at FirstBank Stadium in 2008 and 2012. Although Jordan-Hare opened in 1939, Vanderbilt did not play there until 1951; Previous road games in the series were played in Birmingham or Montgomery, Alabama.

    Watch out for Jarquez Hunter

    Auburn running back Jarquez Hunter is one of the best in the SEC. He is first in the conference with 863 total yards and best in the league with 7.2 yards per carry and ninth nationally among players with at least 50 rushing attempts.

    Vanderbilt allowed 3.83 yards per carry to its opponents, which ranked 11th in the SEC.

    Auburn struggled with turnovers

    Auburn has an explosive offense overall but has a major Achilles heel: turnovers. The Tigers rank 126th out of 134 teams nationwide in turnover margin per game. They have seven turnovers and 10 interceptions.

    Vanderbilt ranks 29th in the same statistic and has only five turnovers while committing 10 turnovers.

    score prediction

    Vanderbilt 28, Auburn 21: Pavia had previously won in remarkable fashion at Jordan-Hare. Tigers coach Hugh Freeze will certainly lock down the Commodores, but Auburn seems too error-prone for a Commodores team that has been playing clean football lately.
