Former Auburn defensive coordinator Ellis Johnson says the Tigers need more than a victory against Vanderbilt on Saturday. They need their most complete performance of the season.

Johnson joins Auburn Undercover founder Ronnie Sanders on this week’s Coach’s Corner to break down Auburn’s 44-39 loss to Florida, including the Tigers’ third-down struggles, explosive plays allowed and the challenges Alex Golesh inherited while rebuilding the roster.

The conversation also turns to Vanderbilt and Auburn’s increasingly difficult SEC schedule. Johnson explains why Saturday’s game is important to rebuilding the Tigers’ confidence and keeping them on a realistic path toward bowl eligibility.

Johnson also gives his Auburn-Vanderbilt prediction before going around the SEC to discuss Ole Miss, LSU, Alabama, Mississippi State and the College Football Playoff race.
