Big win for Auburn

October 31, 2009

Auburn’s 33-20 win over Ole Miss on Saturday certainly showed everyone this Tiger team will fight with everything it has.
Unlike a year ago when the team completely fell apart during hard times, this group has met the challenge head on and was rewarded on Saturday for the efforts.
The Tiger defense, while giving up the big play at times, did the job against one of the top offenses in the conference.
And the Auburn offense put more points on the scoreboard than any team has against the Rebels.
It wasn’t a thing of beauty, but it was certainly encouraging for Auburn to pull out this win.
With Furman up next, Auburn will almost certainly be 7-3 going to Georgia in two weeks.
Not bad at all.
