It was sloppy, gross, rainy, and disgusting. There wasn’t much of a crowd with the quality of opponent and the fact that the students were on Thanksgiving break. Still, Auburn took care of business and shut out Samford 52-0 in the penultimate game of the regular season.
The Tiger defense was at a different level, limiting the Bulldogs to just 114 total yards, forcing 4 turnovers, and collecting 13 tackles for loss. Meanwhile, the offense battled through a bit of a slow start to finish the first half strong and give way to the backups early in the third quarter.
