Auburn baseball vs. Coastal Carolina: Live coverage of Auburn Super Regional game two
Auburn baseball vs. Coastal Carolina: Live coverage of Auburn Super Regional game two Auburn baseball suffered a tough loss on Friday night/early Saturday morning to the Coastal Carolina Chanticleers, 7-6 in 10 innings, to fall behind 1-0 in the Auburn Super Regional. The Tigers trailed 6-1 in the 4th inning before chipping away in the 5th and 6th inning, and ultimately tying the game at 6-6 with an Eric Snow solo home run in the 7th inning to force extra innings. Caden Bodine hit a solo home run in the 10th inning to seal the win for the Chanticleers. He, along with teammate Blagen Pado, homered twice in the game for Coastal Carolina. Friday's game, which got underway at 8:06 p.m. CT, was delayed in the middle of the game by one hour and 46 minutes and ended in the early morning hours of Saturday. Auburn head coach Butch Thompson hopes that his team can find confidence despite the quick turnaround. 'We have confidence and resilience,' Thompson said postgame. 'We have to put our head down, get some sleep and get back out here. Quick turnaround, get back out here and do everything we can to try to win a baseball game and extend the season.'

He will rival Coastal Carolina right-hander Jacob Morrison, who is second on the team in strikeouts with 89 entering Saturday's game. Last night's game was delayed for nearly two hours due to thunder and heavy rain in the area. Will weather play a factor in game two?

Counties north of Lee County are under Severe Thunderstorm Watches currently, so the weather will be worth monitoring.

Auburn receives massive jump in ESPN FPI heading into 2025 season
Auburn receives massive jump in ESPN FPI heading into 2025 season The Auburn Tigers have not lived up to expectations on the gridiron for most of the decade, but with back-to-back highly touted recruiting classes and an abundance of impact transfers on the way, Hugh Freeze's squad is expected to compete for at the top half of the SEC in 2025. Those high expectations were displayed in ESPN's opening Football Power Index rankings, in which Auburn was one of the biggest risers from last year's list. The Tigers checked in at the No. 14 spot in the FPI, sandwiched between a pair of fellow SEC teams in Ole Miss (No. 13) and South Carolina (No. 15). The ranking was a huge jump from where the Tigers finished 2024, as Hugh Freeze's team didn't even finish inside of the top 30 after losing the Iron Bowl and missing out on a bowl game. Auburn's 17 spot jump from No. 31 to No. 14 was the largest among teams currently ranked in the top 20. Hugh Freeze's squad is the only program ranked in the top 15 that did not finish last season ranked in the top 25. While the jump, and the company Auburn has enjoyed because of it, may seem like an ambitious projection, it does make sense when looking at the drastically improved nature of the Tigers roster. Next season's version of the Tigers will feature a new signal caller under center, a myriad of four and five-star recruits on the defensive side of the football, and a receiving duo of Cam Coleman and Eric Singleton Jr. that is being described as a top duo in the nation by many experts. The next step for Hugh Freeze's squad is to prove it on Saturdays in the fall. If they don't, the No. 14 team in FPI will fall right back to No. 31 before long.
