Auburn vs Alabama State history

The Auburn Tigers are off to a hot start this season.

From a computer model's perspective, Bruce Pearl & Co. is one of the best teams in the country, sitting at No. 7 in the KenPom ratings and the T-Rank (Torvik) rankings. The AP poll doesn't see the Tigers the same at the moment, but being ranked in the top 25 doesn't matter nearly as much as the KP or NET ratings.

Neither side of the team has overshadowed the other through ten games. There is a balance to what Auburn has accomplished on offense and defense. Neither one has overtaken the other through the first ten games of the schedule. The Tigers rank No. 13 in adjusted offensive efficiency and No. 17 in adjusted defensive efficiency.

To be top 20 in both categories means that Auburn is in a great spot to make a deep run in the NCAA tournament based on historical statistical trends.
