Summary
Auburn and Florida collide in their SEC opener this Saturday, pitting first-year head coaches Alex Golesh and Jon Sumrall against each other in a high-stakes showdown. Sumrall, who grew up in Alabama and has ties to Auburn through his wife, insists he’s fully focused on Florida — even if everyone close to him is pulling for the Gators. Golesh, meanwhile, respects Sumrall but puts their friendship on hold for game week, recalling their only prior meeting — a Tulane win over South Florida in 2024. Both teams enter with perfect 2-0 records, and the battle kicks off at 6 PM CT at Jordan-Hare Stadium on ESPN. It’s personal, it’s historic, and it’s all about winning.
