For the first time in school history the Auburn home opener is a sell out. The Tigers take on the Jacksonville State Gamecocks Saturday at 11:00 a.m. CT. While last week’s victory over Louisville left quite a few of the Tigers wounded, Coach Malzahn has said that all of the injuries were not major and he expected everyone to be ready to play.
However, reports out of Auburn yesterday were that key defensive player, Carl Lawson was seen on crutches. We’re hopeful that was just doctor’s orders to help rest his hip. The Tigers need to do everything possible to make sure the defensive end is healed and ready for the upcoming brutal SEC schedule.
