1.  Can Clemson extend the streak?

Clemson football currently holds a three win streak over Auburn.

Overall, Auburn leads the series 34-14, but it has been over a half-decade since the Tigers of the SEC beat the Tigers of the ACC.

Do you remember that game?

Auburn, led by quarterback Cam Newton, edged out Clemson 27-24 in Jordan-Hare Stadium. Who was Clemson’s quarterback?

Kyle Parker.

It seems like that game was ages ago.

The question Saturday night will be can the Tigers extend the streak?

Clemson’s longest win streak in the series with Auburn is four. It extended over a period from 1946-1951. The Tigers could make history with a win Saturday night.

Can Clemson find a way to win and advance?

That’s what we all will be watching for when the Tigers take the field to take on Auburn in just four days.

It certainly will be interesting to see how Clemson football performs and what Auburn truly brings to the table.

I think after this game, we will have an idea where both teams stand in the mix of things for the College Football Playoff. Until then, we’ll just have to keep speculating.
