AUBURN — Perhaps the biggest week yet of Auburn baseball’s season is on deck, and the Tigers will head to it on a hefty win streak.
Auburn’s now won 10 straight, dating back to its series against Nebraska in February, and it kept the streak intact over the weekend, beginning SEC play at Missouri and sweep the opposing Tigers. Now, it’ll host No. 3 Georgia Tech in a midweek before continuing SEC play against No. 2 Texas.

It’ll do so as a consensus top-five team, bumping into that spot in the national rankings. It ranked No. 4 in the USA TODAY Coaches Poll, making it the second-highest-ranked SEC squad in the listing behind the Longhorns.
