Auburn has traditionally reveled in the darkhorse role, and the Tigers will have the opportunity to surprise some teams in 2013. The Golden Nugget released odds for more than 200 games Tuesday, and Gus Malzahn's team is an underdog in seven of eight contests.
Auburn is a 11.5-point favorite over Washington State in the season opener, but it's all downhill from there.
| Favorite | Underdog | Line |
| AUBURN | Washington State | 11.5 |
| Mississippi State | AUBURN | 1 |
| LSU | Auburn | 18 |
| TEXAS A&M | Auburn | 24 |
| ARKANSAS | Auburn | 3.5 |
| TENNESSEE | Auburn | 8 |
| Georgia | AUBURN | 15 |
| Alabama | AUBURN | 24 |

Well, those are some ugly numbers. If the oddsmakers know what they're talking about, Auburn's recent trend of getting blown out by conference rivals won't be changing anytime soon. But hey, if you're all aboard the Gus Bus, you should view this list as an opportunity to make a ton of money*.
