Alabama QB Ty Simpson’s November Mentality, Auburn Offense and Defense Disparity | TNR 11/5/25

​The Alabama Crimson Tide is coming off a bye and will host the LSU Tigers Saturday night. Alabama Football is #4 in the College Football Playoff Rankings. Meanwhile, LSU Football is playing their first game in the post-Brian Kelly era.

Alabama QB Ty Simpson tells us his November mentality.

What QB does Ty Simpson model his game after?

The Auburn Tigers are moving on from the Hugh Freeze era. Auburn Football travels to the Vanderbilt Commodores Saturday. Vanderbilt Football is clinging to slim College Football Playoff hopes while Auburn is looking to turn the page.

Does Auburn have the biggest disparity between offense and defense we’ve ever seen?

The #5 Georgia Bulldogs travel to the Mississippi State Bulldogs Saturday. Georgia Football is still well in control of their CFB Playoff chances Burt faces a Mississippi State Football team that has been very close all season.

The #3 Texas A&M Aggies are coming off a bye to face the Missouri Tigers. Texas A&M Football is in a position they haven’t often been in while Missouri Football looks to play spoiler.

This week in the SEC:

Auburn Tigers at Vanderbilt Commodores (-7.5)
LSU Tigers at Alabama Crimson Tide (-10.5)
Georgia Bulldogs at Mississippi State Bulldogs (-7.5)
Texas A&M Aggies (-6) at Missouri Tigers
Florida Gators (-3.5) at Kentucky Wildcats
Ole Miss Rebels v. The Citadel

Nationally:

The BYU Cougars are at the Texas Tech Red Raiders in a massive Big 12 game with Playoff implications. Both BYU Football and Texas Tech Football control their destiny to the Big 12 Championship and are in the Top 10 of the CFB Playoff Rankings.

The Indiana Hoosiers are at the Penn State Nittany Lions. Indiana Football is #2 in the Rankings, Penn State Football is still looking for their first win since the exit of James Franklin.

The Oregon Ducks are at the Iowa Hawkeyes. Oregon Football is still in good Playoff shape, in the Top 10 currently but a loss to Iowa Football, who must win, would give the Ducks issues.

Indiana Hoosiers (-14.5) at Penn State Nittany Lions
BYU Cougars at Texas Tech Red Raiders (-10.5)
Oregon Ducks (-6) at Iowa Hawkeyes
