Aranda's Future Hangs by a Thread | Auburn Tigers Football News

Baylor’s Dave Aranda is under fire after a heartbreakingly close 16-17 loss to Auburn, marking the third straight season opener loss for the Bears—and two of them against the Tigers. Despite outgaining Auburn and forcing turnovers, missed opportunities—including a failed two-point conversion and a questionable fourth-down call—left Baylor short. With winnable games ahead against Prairie View A&M and Louisiana Tech, the program’s future hinges on turning near-misses into wins. The pressure mounts as a potential showdown with Deion Sanders’ Colorado squad looms, followed by tough road tests against BYU and Houston. In college football’s high-stakes world, “close” won’t cut it anymore—and Aranda’s job security may depend on how quickly he delivers real victories.
