Auburn will be heavily favored for the third time in as many home games when it hosts Georgia State next weekend at Jordan-Hare Stadium.

No. 23 Auburn (2-1) opened as a 24-point favorite against Georgia State (1-2), according to VegasInsider.com. The Tigers will host the Panthers on Saturday on the Plains at 3 p.m. for homecoming, with the game airing on SEC Network.

Auburn will look to bounce back from its first loss of the season, a 28-20 thriller against Penn State in State College, Penn. Georgia State will head into Jordan-Hare Stadium coming off its first win of the season, a 20-9 victory against Charlotte that followed back-to-back losses to Army and North Carolina.

Saturday’s game will be the first ever between the two programs.
