The rematch between Auburn and Georgia didn’t go the Tigers’ way this time around.
After winning 40-17 at Jordan-Hare Stadium a few weeks ago, the Tigers couldn’t get anything going against the Bulldogs in the SEC title game on Saturday night.
Now, speculation is already swirling about whether Auburn coach Gus Malzahn will be back next year. He’s been linked to Arkansas in rumors, but hasn’t commented on them as of yet, citing his focus on Saturday’s game.
Now that it appears Auburn will lose that game, though, speculation is running rampant about Malzahn’s future.
Here are some of the many, many tweets wondering if Malzahn will be in Fayetteville soon:

It appears Gus Malzahn is moments away from being on the hot seat at Auburn and Arkansas announcing the richest college football coaching contract in history.

Couple of hours ago, Malzahn to Arkansas seemed highly unlikely. How quickly things change.

Maybe Malzahn should have worried more about his game plan and less about the Arkansas job offers ??
