TNR 10/26/26 – Hour 3 & 4 | Alabama Gets NO RESPECT After Texas A&M Win? Auburn EXPOSED by LSU

Alabama SURVIVES Texas A&M, Auburn gets EXPOSED by LSU, and the SEC football race is becoming increasingly unpredictable! Joel Klatt joins The Next Round as we break down the biggest storylines from another wild weekend of college football, including Alabama’s College Football Playoff hopes, Auburn’s alarming collapse, and the growing possibility of a crowded SEC race filled with three-loss teams.

🔴 ALABAMA BEATS TEXAS A&M 31-20 — WHY IS NOBODY GIVING THE CRIMSON TIDE CREDIT?

Kalen DeBoer’s Alabama Crimson Tide improved to 6-2 with a hard-fought 31-20 victory over Texas A&M in Tuscaloosa. Despite offensive struggles and trailing 20-17 entering the fourth quarter, Alabama outscored the Aggies 14-0 in the final period to secure a much-needed SEC victory.

Quarterback Keelon Russell threw for 311 yards and three touchdowns, while Alabama’s defense forced three turnovers and held Texas A&M to just three second-half points.

So why isn’t Alabama getting more credit? Are fans focusing too much on the Crimson Tide’s offensive inconsistencies instead of appreciating an 11-point SEC victory? Is this team better than its critics believe?

🏈 ALABAMA’S BYE WEEK COMES AT THE PERFECT TIME BEFORE LSU!

With Alabama preparing to travel to Baton Rouge on November 7 to face Lane Kiffin’s LSU Tigers, the Crimson Tide finally gets a much-needed week off.

Can offensive coordinator Ryan Grubb fix Alabama’s struggling rushing attack? What adjustments must Kalen DeBoer make before facing LSU? And how much will this showdown impact Alabama’s SEC Championship and College Football Playoff chances?

🐯 AUBURN EMBARRASSED BY LSU 38-17 — WHAT HAPPENED TO THE TIGERS?

Just one week after Auburn’s stunning 27-24 upset of Georgia in Athens, Alex Golesh’s Tigers looked like an entirely different football team against LSU.

Lane Kiffin’s LSU Tigers dominated Auburn 38-17 at Jordan-Hare Stadium, piling up 552 yards of offense while quarterback Sam Leavitt threw for 387 yards and three touchdowns.

How did Auburn go from beating Georgia on the road to getting embarrassed at home? Was the Georgia victory a turning point or an outlier?

Which should concern Auburn fans more: an anemic offense that managed just 271 yards or a porous defense that couldn’t slow down LSU? Can Alex Golesh and quarterback Byrum Brown get Auburn back on track?

🏆 IS THE SEC HEADED FOR A THREE-LOSS TRAFFIC JAM?

With upsets shaking up the SEC standings, could the regular season finish with an unusually large number of three-loss teams?

We examine the SEC Championship race, potential tiebreaker complications, and what a crowded conference could mean for College Football Playoff contenders. Which SEC programs are legitimate threats, and which are running out of chances?
