Welcome to The Auburn Podcast, your daily Auburn sports podcast presented by Auburn Undercover and hosted by Zac Blackerby.

On the show Monday, Blackerby welcomes in the first game week for Auburn football’s 2018 season with Painter Sharpless of ESPN 106.7. The guys discuss the comments from Washington Head Coach Chris Peterson as he compared Auburn’s defense to their arch rival, Alabama. The guys also talk about what role Anders Carlson will have in the season opener and how they believe Auburn can beat Washington in Atlanta to start out the season.

Use the following time marks to navigate the podcast:

Start of the show: Blackerby and Sharpless talk about Peterson’s “Alabama-ish” comments and observe the way that Auburn fans are taking it. The words were clearly a compliment and Blackerby observes that Auburn has closed the talent gap with Alabama over the past few seasons.

8-minute mark: Auburn should have the ability to make Washington one-dimensional on Saturday. If they can limit Huskies running back Myles Gaskin, the Tigers should be able to return to Auburn with a win.

10-minute mark: The guys touch on Washington’s new offensive coordinator and what impact he could have on the game.
End of the show: The guys discuss Gus Malzahn’s ability to develop talent versus what Peterson has done at Washington. Blackerby and Sharpless also chat about their weekends and announce that the Auburn Podcast is now on YouTube.
