College Football News predicts the Aggies will beat Auburn 28-17.
Auburn is 1-6 and the betting line is TAMU by 15 points. CFN predicts the Aggies will make enough mistakes to keep Auburn in the game, but a second-half scoring surge will enable them to head home with another W. After seeing A&M against Ole Miss, Louisiana Tech and LSU on consecutive Saturdays, that seems like a reasonable analysis.
Added 7:51 PM, Saturday 27 October: Halftime score is Aggies 42 Auburn 7. TAMU is in control so far, scoring on its first six possessions and allowing Auburn to score once. No turnovers (yet) and no significant penalties other than a holding call that nullified a touchdown run. Didn't matter since the Aggies scored on the drive a few plays later.
In August I predicted TAMU would lose to Arkansas at home and to Auburn on the road. Arkansas turned out to be A&M's most satisfying win of the season so far, and this game is headed in the same direction.
Added 9:18 PM: Final score 63-21. It was a close 21-14 game in the second half, but Sumlin was substituting players and avoided running up the score. Around the SEC today, Georgia knocked off Florida, and Alabama is leading Mississippi State 21-0.
