For the first time in a month, the Auburn Tigers got off to a quick start in a game and scored a touchdown on their first possession. Quarterback Bo Nix capped off a perfect drive with a 39-yard touchdown pass to Ja’Varrius Johnson to take a 7-0 lead. The Tigers would cool off a little […]

Last week, Auburn broke a decades-long losing streak in Baton Rouge by defeating LSU on the road. Today, the Tigers get a chance to put an end to another rival’s winning streak. The undefeated Georgia Bulldogs make their way to Jordan-Hare Stadium to take on Auburn for the 126th installment of the Deep South’s Oldest […]
The Auburn Tigers traveled to LSU and delivered a performance that everyone associated with the program needed. For the first time since 1999, Auburn went to Baton Rouge and came away with a win. The 24-19 victory ends a losing streak that dates back to Tommy Tuberville’s first trip to LSU as Auburn’s head coach, […]
Auburn football is not for the faint of heart. No program in college football ricochets from success to failure and back more feverishly or frequently than the Tigers. There are very few dull moments. Last week, Auburn benched its quarterback who has started all 28 games of his career, scored a last-minute touchdown on fourth […]
Georgia State came to Jordan-Hare stadium unafraid, with a great game plan and should have come away with a win based on the first 58 minutes of the game. A team that would struggle to find a single player that would start at an SEC school absolutely dominated Auburn in the first half. In the […]
Auburn finishes its non-conference schedule and the month of September today at home against the Georgia State Panthers. The Tigers will need to move past a disappointing loss last week at Penn State and build some positive momentum as they get ready to enter SEC play. The visiting Georgia State Panthers come into the game […]
Auburn traveled to Penn State looking for its first road win against a Top 10 team from a conference other than the SEC since 1984. The Tigers will have to keep looking. As the visitors, Auburn went into an electric environment and came up short. The Tigers were able to take the lead in the […]
The Auburn Tigers have already played two games this year, but the season truly begins tonight as they travel to State College, Pennsylvania, to take on the Penn State Nittany Lions. Auburn will face off against Penn State in front of over 106,000 fans this evening, the largest crowd in Auburn football history. Both teams […]
Well, that was a tale of two halves. The Auburn Tigers led Alabama State 20-0 at halftime. That may sound pretty good unless you actually watched the game. The Tiger offense managed only one touchdown in the first two quarters against the visiting Hornets today, even though Auburn has significantly bigger and better players across […]
Auburn’s second opponent of the 2021 season hails from just a few miles down Interstate 85. Today, the Auburn Tigers face off against the Alabama State Hornets for just the second time in the history of the two programs. Alabama State, an FCS school that plays in the SWAC, will be significantly overmatched by Auburn […]
It was clear from the very beginning that Auburn would not have much trouble in their season opener against the Akron Zips. The Tigers did whatever they wanted on offense, scoring on every possession that the first team was in the ball game. Similarly, the defense didn’t allow the visitors into Auburn territory until they […]
The eventful offseason that saw Gus Malzahn fired, Bryan Harsin hired, personnel turnover like musical chairs due to the transfer portal and COVID-19 controversies galore has finally come to an end. The season is upon us, and the Bryan Harsin era of Auburn football begins tonight when the Tigers take on the Akron Zips in […]
The Alabama Crimson Tide capped the greatest SEC season ever with its win over Florida in Atlanta, and the Tide is now only two games away from completing its submission into the discussion of greatest teams in college football history. Alabama’s dominance this season can be summarized by the fact that DeVonta Smith, Mac Jones […]
The Alabama Crimson Tide just completed the greatest regular season in college football history with a first-ever 10-0 record in SEC play. The Tide dominated each of its opponents, and no game seemed even remotely in doubt. On the offensive side of the ball, Mac Jones has put together the greatest season of any quarterback […]
This game put the idea that “any win is a good win” to the test. The first half of the contest between Auburn and Mississippi State surely gave many fans flashbacks to the 2008 game between the teams that finished in a 3-2 Tigers victory. Neither team was able to put any semblance of consistent […]
The Auburn Tigers travel to Mississippi State (2-6) to face the Bulldogs for the final game of their 2020 regular season schedule. The Tigers are searching for answers following back to back double-digit losses against Alabama and Texas A&M, respectively. Every conference game is a must-win, but there are lots of murmurs that an Auburn […]
With the loss to Texas A&M, Auburn falls to 5-4 on the season. That is pretty disappointing in itself, but the way that it happened is even tougher to swallow. The Tigers were unable to impede the Aggie offense all day, yet improbably found themselves with a 20-14 lead in the third quarter. It was […]
The Alabama Crimson Tide has won its last four games by a combined score of 201-33. Yesterday it dismantled the defending national champion LSU Tigers in Baton Rouge 55-17 while putting up 650 total yards of offense. The Tide’s multiple Heisman-worthy offensive players show no signs of letting up. Nick Saban’s team appears unstoppable and […]
Texas A&M came to Jordan-Hare Stadium and ended a three game losing streak against Auburn, prevailing today 31-20. From the first drive of the game, the Aggies set the tone, driving straight down the field and taking a 7-0 lead. Auburn would actually manage to take a lead that got to as many as six […]

Texas A&M is led by Jimbo […]
When it was all said and done, the final score of the 85th Iron Bowl showed a 42-13 victory for the Alabama Crimson Tide. However, if you watched the game, you know that it wasn’t actually “that close”. The Auburn offense labored in vain all day, only able to put together a touchdown drive when […]
The Alabama Crimson Tide proved once again that it is the best team in the country with a dominant win over Auburn. A rescheduled game against LSU is up next. The trip to Baton Rouge presents the Tide with another opportunity to build its case that it is in the midst of putting together the […]
The much better team won by a very big margin in the 85th Iron Bowl. Even though legendary Alabama head coach Nick Saban was unable to be on the sidelines due to COVID-19 protocols, the Crimson Tide dominated the Tigers in Bryant-Denny Stadium. Both teams got off to a slow start as the defenses forced […]
