AUBURN, Ala. u2015 Auburn's defense responded to a call for action from coordinator Will Muschamp in practice last week, and the results showed up in improved play Saturday in Jordan-Hare Stadium.
The Tigers' defense came back from an uneven effort at LSU with a better performance against Mississippi State, though the game ended in a 17-9 loss to the Bulldogs.
Linebackers coach Lance Thompson said Muschamp's message was delivered loud and clear.
"This week in practice it was challenge week," Thompson said on the Auburn radio network.
