Auburn Spurned a Native Son and Paid Dearly For It vs Arkansas

With all of the preparation and film study for Arkansas vs Auburn behind them, Travis Williams opened the floor to his players on the eve of their SEC opener.

TJ Metcalf took advantage of the opportunity. He had something to say.

“He let some of the starters talk in front of the defense,” Metcalf said. “My thing was just coming back home. Auburn didn’t offer me out of high school, so it was kind of personal for me to come in here and get the win.”

The Birmingham, Ala., native backed up his words with the game of his life, having a direct hand in four of the Tigers five turnovers as the Razorbacks went down to the Plains and came away with a 24-14 win.
