**Vanderbilt's Diego Pavia Poised for Showdown Against Auburn**

Vanderbilt quarterback Diego Pavia seems ready to continue his impressive performance streak when he faces Auburn this Saturday morning. Mere hours before the game, Pavia posted a cryptic message on his Instagram story featuring lyrics from Lil Baby's song "Heyy," with the highlighted line reading, "They thought I got lucky last time."

This isn't Pavia's first encounter with Auburn or its coach, Hugh Freeze. Last season, he played a crucial role in leading New Mexico State to a remarkable 31-10 upset over Auburn, throwing for 201 yards and securing three touchdowns. The year before that, he directed the Aggies to a convincing 49-14 triumph over Freeze's Liberty squad.

Now as Vanderbilt’s signal-caller, Pavia has led the Commodores to a 5-3 record, highlighted by an earlier upset win over Alabama. This season, he's amassed 1,534 passing yards with 13 touchdowns and added another 537 yards and four touchdowns on the ground.

The high-stakes matchup between Auburn and Vanderbilt is set to kick off at 11:45 a.m. and will be available for streaming on SEC Network. Fans are eagerly anticipating what's shaping up to be another thrilling chapter in Pavia's football journey.
