Best Five Games of Week 6

Week 6

After beating Alabama six straight years and going undefeated in one of them, Auburn “convinced Tommy Tuberville to take a year off from coaching.” Two years and a bagman drop later, Tuberville’s players combined with a former Mississippi State commit won a national championship for Auburn. But a season-plus removed from glory, things are not looking so good at Auburn. Trees have been poisoned, Vratsinas is back to talking trash about Chizik, and the Tigers are stuck with a Springdale kid running the offense. Meanwhile in Lubbock, Tuberville has brought Texas Tech back to national relevance and put them in much better shape than the Auburn program he “left” currently finds itself. A win Saturday over Oklahoma could put Tuberville back in the spotlight. But Arkansas fans still don’t want him. And that’s the least-interesting storyline from this week. These are the best five games of the season so far and could end up being the best of the year.
