FanDuel Sportsbook has released Auburn’s projected win total.

FanDuel Sportsbook has unveiled Auburn’s anticipated number of wins for the upcoming season. Auburn, now under the leadership of Head Coach Hugh Freeze entering his second year, aims to elevate the program’s standing. Despite a 6-7 record last season culminating in a loss to the Maryland Terrapins in the Music City Bowl, Freeze prioritized recruiting for the 2024 and 2025 high school classes, resulting in a relatively passive role in offensive strategy.

The lackluster offensive performance in 2023 prompted significant changes within the coaching staff. Freeze brought in DJ Durkin from Texas A&M as the defensive coordinator and Derrick Nix from Ole Miss as the offensive coordinator. Speaking of Nix, Freeze expressed confidence in his abilities as a recruiter and coach, emphasizing their mutual understanding and effective communication. Similarly, Freeze praised Durkin’s interview and his potential contributions to the defensive side.

Excited about the team’s youthful roster, Freeze welcomed FanDuel Sportsbook’s preseason prediction of 7.5 wins for the Auburn Tigers. With a challenging yet navigable schedule, Freeze believes that the team’s young talent could help surpass the 7.5-win mark if everything aligns as planned. The article also mentions the projected win totals for other SEC teams, with Texas leading at 10.5 wins.
