is it not possible they have improved tj as well? these guys have scored more on defense than they have allowed against their defense so i am not certain if any QB on any team is not a sitting duck against those guys.

Auburn football: Greg McElroy credits Bryan Harsin for sticking with Bo Nix ByChance Linton 3-4 minutes Auburn quarterback Bo Nix delivered one of the biggest performances of his career on Saturday night to lead the Tigers to a 19-17 win over LSU in Baton Rouge, marking the program’s first win at Tiger Stadium since 1999. The junior signal-caller completed 23 of 44 passes for 255 yards with one touchdown and no interceptions while rushing for a team-high 74 yards and one touchdown on 12 carries. He engineered a pair of fourth-quarter touchdown drives to help Auburn erase a nine-point fourth-quarter deficit, earning co-SEC Offensive Player of the Week honors for his efforts. The performance comes just one week after Nix was benched in favor of LSU transfer T.J. Finley, who rallied the Tigers in the second half for a 34-24 win over Georgia State. But Nix remained in the starting lineup, and SEC Network college football analyst Greg McElroy praised first-year head coach Bryan Harsin for his decision to stick with the veteran quarterback. “I think the moral of the story last week is just when you're ready to write a player off, take your time,” McElroy said Monday on the Paul Finebaum Show. “The coaches know what they're doing, and I think everyone that I talked to on the radio, and everyone that probably was listening to your show that supported Auburn, they want a changing of the guard at quarterback last week or the vast majority did. “And they were wrong, because Bo Nix, right now, and his mobility is what actually gives this Auburn offense some unpredictability. And him being able to run around and create is not something I want to rely on down in and down out. But I think that athleticism can get you out of a jam, especially when your offensive line, for the most part, has been very, very mediocre this year. “So I thought it was a good move to keep him in the lineup, and I also think that he showed you why this past weekend. I was so happy for him; him being able to bounce back and being able to deliver on the road for the first time in over 20 years." With the win, Auburn improved to 4-1 overall and 1-0 in SEC play. The No. 18 Tigers return home this week to host the second-ranked Georgia Bulldogs (5-0, 3-0 SEC) on Saturday at Jordan-Hare Stadium. Get the fastest scores, stats, news, LIVE videos, and more.

He was also the third-ranked player in Alabama. ">247Sports

Can Auburn solve the puzzle that is Georgia’s daunting defense? By Tom Green | tgreen@al.com 5-7 minutes Georgia defensive lineman Jordan Davis (99) watches from the sideline in the second half of an NCAA college football game against Vanderbilt Saturday, Sept. 25, 2021, in Nashville, Tenn. (AP Photo/Mark Humphrey)AP Bryan Harsin accomplished something in his first season that no Auburn coach did in 22 years when his team defeated LSU down in Baton Rouge, La., last week. Now, for an encore, Harsin and his team will be tasked with trying to do something no team has been able to do yet this season — solve Georgia’s defense. It’s a tall order for No. 18 Auburn (4-1, 1-0 SEC) in this year’s edition of the Deep South’s Oldest Rivalry, as No. 2 Georgia (5-0, 3-0) rolls into Jordan-Hare Stadium this weekend with the nation’s most intimidating defense. The Bulldogs lead the country in allowing just 4.6 points per game, and their defense has made a mockery of the team’s first five opponents this season — holding Clemson to a field goal in Week 1 and then posting back-to-back SEC shutouts the last two weeks. “They’re playing at a high level,” Harsin said. “So, that’s going to be a great challenge for our offense, as we put together a plan to go out there put together and try to score points.” Through five games, Georgia’s defense has scored more touchdowns (two) than it has surrendered. The lone touchdown the unit has allowed was a 36-yard pass in the fourth quarter against South Carolina in Week 3 (the only other touchdown scored against Georgia this season came in Week 2, when UAB had a pick-six). The unit has suffocated opposing offenses, allowing just 3.38 yards per play (tops in the nation) while racking up 18 sacks and, according to The Athletic, getting a stop on 93 percent of all drives this season. The defense has been so dominant that South Carolina coach Shane Beamer guffawed that Georgia has “like 100 five-star football players” on defense. While clearly an exaggeration, the Bulldogs’ defense is still loaded, and it’s spearheaded by a front seven that includes six former five-star prospects in its two-deep, including a trio of them starting at linebacker with Nakobe Dean, Adam Anderson and Nolan Smith. The defensive line is anchored by a 340-pound behemoth nose tackle in Jordan Davis, with a pair of blue-chip prospects on either side of him in Travon Walker and Devonte Wyatt. “Yeah, their front seven is really good,” Harsin said. “Jordan Davis, Nakobe Dean — those guys are really good players. They’re physical up front.” Cracking that puzzle will be the most difficult task to date for Auburn’s offense, as Harsin and his offensive staff will try to scheme against a daunting Georgia defense that hasn’t allowed a point in its las 26 drives. Of course, scheming against such a talented and dominating defense is no walk in the park; Harsin knows it’s going to take more than just X’s and O’s—it’s going to require some noteworthy individual efforts from Auburn’s offensive line, tight ends and running backs when it comes to blocking assignments, as well as sound execution from the rest of the offense. “You’re going to have to win some of those one-on-one matchups,” Harsin said. “They do have very good depth, they’re very good up front. You still have to scheme for that, so you just can’t give up on that because they have good players, and they have depth. You’re going to scheme, you’re going to have a plan and then you’re going to work on the things that you have to do that week in order to make that play or that plan you have with your offense successful.” Part of that plan for Auburn, of course, will be trying to establish the run game against a Georgia defense limiting opponents to 70 yards per game on the ground and just 2.35 yards per carry. Auburn ranks 13th nationally in rushing offense at 238.2 yards per game and second nationally in yards per carry with 6.81, but it’s coming off a game in which it struggled to get things going between the tackles against LSU. Still, Auburn found its ground game when it mattered most in the fourth quarter, and as Harsin said afterward, “at some point, the run game is going to be there.” “Everybody wants to try to run the football, and so you still want to be able to run it,” Harsin said. “You’ve got to be able to handle those guys up front. We’ve got to do a great job at O-line, tight ends being able to get up to those linebackers as well so you can run it. So that just in itself is a challenge.” But it’s one Auburn feels it is prepared to take on, as daunting as it may seem, after early-season tests against Penn State and LSU, and even a quality Georgia State defensive front. The Tigers understand that it won’t be possible without winning some of those one-on-one matchups up front, though. “That’s why you do individual (drills),” Harsin said. “That’s why you spend time in the weight room. That’s why you do all those things, so at some point when you get a one-on-one, that’s your chance to use some of the techniques and things you learn, but it’s also -- you just as a football player. That’s your chance to try to win that one-on-one, and that’s a great challenge and I think why a lot of guys play the game, is we get in those moments. ‘Hey, it’s me and you,’ and you get to go out there and challenge yourself to try to win those battles.” Tom Green is an Auburn beat reporter for Alabama Media Group.

third is what we call top shelf around here.

i love that song on the video and this is it. i have never heard of these guys

i played one year of AYA football in germany and we always just got our ass chewed at halftime. first year we had a football team and still came in second place. i sucked. i did however recover a fumble and was running for a touchdown and my own damn teammate tackled me. my own man and he stold my glory............lol. i am not sure i have ever seen my mom and stepdad laugh so hard in their life.

yeah you soured on me over clark comments which were all true. he hates auburn and he refused to let auburn coaches talk to his players and he steered every single auburn lean he could back to bama. i am not mad but good grief.

you talk too much.............

i was just reading about eku and he has three or four sacks and several hurries. i have only heard his name mentioned once during games. but i am so tired of playing behind the eight ball so to speak. i want a full compliment of great players with a full roster so basically all we have to worry about is schemes. it seems like we are always lacking somewhere. i have no doubt we get it corrected but it sure does wear on me.

we are gonna be having little bo's running around for years to come.

well brother i am high and mellow so i was laid back about it lol

he looked so much better after tj played. he was not perfect but he was a young god on the field. that might be the best game of his life so far. if he gets a little better throwing and our receivers drop less watch out!. right now i would have to say bobo and harsin have done wonders with this young man. i think if he stays another year and we get him some help on the team we roll. anyway i am glad bo will always be part of auburn lore with that win. when you go in and make lsu look silly at their home and a night game you have done something.

we used to struggle in those early games.

Auburn Football Bryan Harsin vague about status of Auburn edge defender T.D. Moultry for Georgia game Updated: Oct. 04, 2021, 2:29 p.m. | Published: Oct. 04, 2021, 2:10 p.m. Auburn defensive end T.D. Moultry (99) looks over the Penn State offense during an NCAA college football game in State College, Pa., on Saturday, Sept.18, 2021.Penn State defeated Auburn 28-20. (AP Photo/Barry Reeger)AP By Tom Green | tgreen@al.com Auburn coach Bryan Harsin was vague about the status of the Tigers’ top pass-rusher heading into this weekend’s showdown with second-ranked Georgia. Edge defender T.D. Moultry did not make the trip to LSU last weekend for Auburn’s 24-19 win in Tiger Stadium. It remains unclear as to why Moultry did not make the trip, or if he will be available for Auburn this weekend in the Deep South’s Oldest Rivalry. “I don’t know if T.D. will be here or not this week,” Harsin said Monday during his weekly press conference. “I’ll leave it at that.” The 6-foot-2, 253-pound super senior is tied for the team lead with three sacks this season, along with fellow edge defenders Derick Hall and Eku Leota. Moultry also leads the team with six tackles for a loss. After struggling with consistency for much of his career on the Plains, Moultry seemingly settled into his new role in Derek Mason’s defense this season. In four games, he has a career-high 23 tackles, as well as two quarterback hurries to go with his six tackles for loss and three sacks. In Moultry’s absence against LSU, Leota got his first start off the edge for Auburn. The Northwestern transfer had one sack and a forced fumble in Baton Rouge, La., and now has eight tackles on the season, with five for a loss and three sacks. “It was good to have him out there,” Harsin said. “I mean, this is why he came here, to be in the game. He did some things off the edge that were positive.” Tom Green is an Auburn beat reporter for Alabama Media Group. Follow him on Twitter @Tomas_Verde.

Owen Pappoe a ‘game-time’ decision for Auburn vs. Georgia By Tom Green | tgreen@al.com 2-3 minutes Sep 18, 2021; University Park, PA, USA; Owen Pappoe (0) tackling between Auburn and Penn State at Beaver Stadium. Mandatory Credit: Todd Van Emst/AU AthleticsTodd Van Emst/AU Athletics Auburn coach Bryan Harsin remains hopeful that Owen Pappoe will return to the field this weekend for Auburn, but the junior linebacker’s availability remains in the air for Saturday’s game against Georgia. Pappoe, one of Auburn’s two permanent team captains, has missed the last two games against Georgia State and LSU after sustaining a lower-body injury in Week 3 at Penn State. He was limited in practice last week and made the trip to Baton Rouge, La., but he did not dress out during Auburn’s 24-19 win against LSU. Whether Pappoe suits up this weekend for Saturday’s 2:30 p.m. kickoff against No. 2 Georgia will apparently be a game-time decision. “I hope he does (play) this week,” Harsin said. “I hope that he would’ve last week as well. It’s just — it kind of comes down to game time.” Pappoe, who sustained an injury early in the second half against Penn State and did not return to the field, has 15 total tackles, with two for a loss and a pair of quarterback hurries, in three games this season. Harsin was also asked if star running back Tank Bigsby has been slowed by an injury in recent weeks after opening the season with three consecutive 100-yard rushing performances. Bigsby has just 87 yards on 27 carries the last two weeks, including 27 yards on nine touches during Auburn’s win at LSU. “As far as Tank goes, he’s fine,” Harsin said. “Everybody that was on that trip was able to play. We hoped that Owen was. We’ll see where he’s at this week. We fully expect him to be out there and ready to go.” Tom Green is an Auburn beat reporter for Alabama Media Group.

Auburn to unveil namesake statues at Jordan-Hare Stadium, Pat Dye Field AUBURN, Ala.—Statues of Shug Jordan, Cliff Hare and Pat Dye, the three men whose names adorn Auburn's football stadium and playing field, will be unveiled Friday at 3 p.m. CT outside the southwest corner of Jordan-Hare Stadium near the Tiger Walk entrance. In a ceremony preceding the unveiling, former players will share memories of Jordan and Dye, and former Auburn director of athletics David Housel will speak on Hare's significance to Auburn's football program. After each statue is unveiled, a member of the Hare, Jordan and Dye families will formally accept on their behalf. "Coach Jordan, Coach Dye and Dean Cliff Hare are most deserving of this esteemed honor," Director of Athletics Allen Greene said. "Their extraordinary contributions created the foundation on which Auburn's football program has ascended. These statues will serve as visible reminders of their commitment to Auburn, inspiring the Auburn Family for generations." Auburn commissioned the Chicago-based Fine Art Studio of Rotblatt Amrany and lead sculptor Lou Cella to create the 8-foot bronze artworks. A member of Auburn's first football team in 1892, Hare served as dean of Auburn University's chemistry department, and as the first president of the Southern Athletic Conference, precursor to the SEC. As the longtime chairman of Auburn's Faculty Athletic Committee, he worked for more than a half-century to see Auburn's football program come to maturity. In 1949, Auburn renamed its then 10-year-old football venue "Cliff Hare Stadium." A three-sport athlete at Auburn, Jordan coached the Tigers from 1951-75, amassing a program-record 176 victories and leading Auburn to the school's first national championship in 1957. Auburn in 1973 renamed its football facility "Jordan-Hare Stadium," becoming the first stadium in the country to be named for an active coach. Jordan was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in 1982. Dye, a two-time All-American at the University of Georgia and the SEC Lineman of the Year in 1960, coached the Tigers from 1981-92, winning 99 games and four Southeastern Conference championships. As director of athletics, he oversaw the expansion of Jordan-Hare Stadium and brought the Iron Bowl to Auburn's campus in 1989. Dye was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in 2005, the same year Auburn named its playing surface "Pat Dye Field" in his honor. The public is invited to attend on a standing-room-only basis, as limited seating will be reserved for families, former players and dignitaries. In the event of rain, the program will move indoors to the Anderson-Thorne Tigers Den and be closed to the public, except for the unveiling outdoors. The statues will be unveiled on the eve of Auburn's game against Georgia, the Deep South's Oldest Rivalry which began in 1892. Jeff Shearer is a Senior Writer at AuburnTigers.com.

Auburn's defense makes progress on third-down stops ByMark Murphy 3-4 minutes AUBURN, Alabama–While there is still room for improvement, five games into the 2021 football season the Auburn defense has made a significant step forward in its ability to get off the field after third down plays. Going back to spring training, that was a point of emphasis for the new coaching staff. Last season opposing offenses converted slightly better than half of their third downs when facing Auburn’s defense. The Tigers finished last in the Southeastern Conference in the category and ranked 121st nationally. After allowing LSU to convert just 6-17 third down opportunities in a 24-19 victory for the visiting Tigers on Saturday night at Baton Rouge, the Auburn defense is allowing opponents to convert 34.7 percent of the time this season. That ranks eighth in the Southeastern Conference, just behind Ole Miss (34.5 percent) and Alabama (34.3 percent). For the season opposing offenses are 6-18 on third down conversion attempts in the first quarter and 9-18 in the second quarter. The second half numbers are better for the Tigers, who have allowed 6-19 in the third quarter and 4-17 in the fourth quarter during the team’s 4-1 start. Junior edge rusher Derick Hall, who was in on a collegiate-high eight tackles last week with 1 1/2 quarterback sacks, said that one of the major themes in practices for Coordinator Derek Mason's defense is focusing on a strong fourth quarter performance. Defensive coordinator Derek Mason is in his first season coaching for the Tigers. (Photo: Adam Sparks / Inside the Auburn Tigers, 247Sports) This week’s opponent has been strong defensively from the start to finish of games. Georgia, which is 5-0, leads the nation in total defense by a wide margin. The Bulldogs are giving up just 180.6 yards per game. Iowa State is a distant second allowing 232.0 per contest. In the SEC the No. 2 ranked defense in yards allowed is Arkansas at 282.8. One of the reasons why the Bulldogs are No. 1 nationally in fewest yards allowed is that their opponents are converting on just 25.7 percent of their third down opportunities. That ranks No. 1 in the Southeastern Conference and is sixth nationally after dominating previously unbeaten Arkansas 37-0 in game five. Auburn heads into Saturday’s 2:30 p.m. CDT (CBS television coverage) home contest vs. Georgia allowing 299.0 yards per outing, which ranks 21st nationally. The 2020 Auburn defense allowed 406 yards per game, which ranked 63rd among FBS teams. 2COMMENTS In their Southeastern Conference opener at LSU on Saturday night the visitors were able to keep the Bayou Bengals from scoring in the fourth quarter. One of the reasons for that was LSU managed just 54 yards in the final quarter while converting on just two of six third down plays in addition to Bydarrius Knighten getting his first Auburn interception on LSU’s final offensive play, a fourth down and six call from the home team’s 46-yard line.

Bo Nix, Jarquez Hunter pick up weekly SEC honors for LSU performances By Tom Green | tgreen@al.com 2-3 minutes Auburn quarterback Bo Nix (10) scrambles in the second half of an NCAA college football game against LSU in Baton Rouge, La., Saturday, Oct. 2, 2021. Auburn won 24-19. (AP Photo/Gerald Herbert)AP Bo Nix and Jarquez Hunter were vital to Auburn finally bringing an end to its 10-game losing streak in Baton Rouge, La., and on Monday, the SEC recognized the two Auburn players for their roles in the win. Nix was named SEC Co-Offensive Player of the Week for his performance in Auburn’s 24-19 win on the bayou, while Hunter was tabbed the SEC’s Co-Freshman of the Week for his effort against LSU. It’s the first time this season any Auburn players have picked up weekly SEC honors. Nix completed 23-of-44 passes for 255 yards and a touchdown while also rushing for a career-high 74 yards and a score Saturday night. He sparked Auburn’s comeback efforts after falling behind 13-0, making dazzling fourth-down plays with his legs on back-to-back scoring drives in the first half. The first produced the signature play of his career -- a sack-evading scramble that culminated in a 24-yard touchdown pass to Tyler Fromm -- while the other helped set up a 49-yard Anders Carlson field goal before halftime. He also directed Auburn’s game-winning touchdown drive in the final minutes, as the team drove 92 yards over 11 plays to take a 24-19 lead with 3:11 left. That’s also where Hunter stepped in. The freshman running back finished with 65 rushing yards and a touchdown on six carries. Fifty-three of those came on Auburn’s decisive drive, with a 44-yarder to put Auburn in scoring position and then back-to-back runs inside the 10-yard line, capped by his 1-yard go-ahead touchdown. Hunter is the only FBS player this season to average more than 10 yards per carry. Nix shared the weekly SEC honor with Alabama running back Brian Robinson and Mississippi State quarterback Will Rogers, while Hunter shared the honor with Tennessee running back Len’Neth Whitehead.

Harsin expects a 'rocking' atmosphere for home game against Georgia ByMark Murphy 3-4 minutes AUBURN, Alabama–As Auburn prepares to take on the undefeated Georgia Bulldogs, the nation’s No. 2 ranked team, Coach Bryan Harsin said this is the type of challenge that college football players and coaches should look forward to facing. “This is why you play,” said Harsin, who is 4-1 in his first season as Auburn’s head coach. “You look forward to weeks like this to come into a game and be at home. “I know our crowd is going to be great,” he said. “Looking forward to that and we are going to need to be. We need that homefield advantage so that place should be rocking. Our guys will be looking forward to being out there and playing in front of them.” Georgia brings a 5-0 record into the contest at Jordan-Hare Stadium and back-to-back beat-downs of SEC opponents Vanderbilt (62-0) and Arkansas (37-0). The Bulldogs dominated both opponents from the start to finish. Auburn comes into the contest with a 1-0 SEC record after rallying with two fourth quarter touchdown drives to win 24-19 on Saturday night at LSU. “The work we do and the mentality we bring to this week is going to be extremely important to our success and everybody should be excited about the opportunity and the challenge that we have in front of us,” said Harsin, as his Tigers prepare for a 2:30 p.m. CDT contest that will be televised on CBS. Auburn will be trying to snap a four-game losing streak in matchups to the Bulldogs in the SEC’s oldest rivalry. “Our guys should be excited,” Harsin said. “It is a new week, new opportunity, new challenge against a really, really good team. Hopefully, most importantly, it is a chance for us to kind of build off what we have done this season so far. “I am very proud of our guys for the LSU win being on the road and the different challenges that you have to face that you are on the road and you find a way to win against a good football team,” the coach added. Harsin said this week’s opponent qualifies as a very good team. “Georgia is complete in all three phases. When you watch them, you pop on tape, you can see why they have the record they do and the type of performances they have. They have got very good players. They play hard. 17COMMENTS “They are well coached and that shows up on a consistent basis on film so really a credit to them for the type of consistency that they've shown throughout this season. They have got a lot of great players–too many to mention–but some guys that really stand out on all three phases, really.”
