AUBURN, Ala. u2015 Enough with the waiting. It's time for tackle football, says Auburn defensive lineman Montravius Adams.

"It feels like we've been out there practicing for like a year. Saturday is the first game, and I think we're going to be ready," Adams said after four weeks of preseason practice finally kicked into game-week drills Sunday.

Auburn opens the season against Louisville at 2:30 p.m., Auburn time, in the Georgia Dome, with an energetic defensive coordinator in Will Muschamp, who has already demonstrated he's willing to shake things up by saying he may play eight true freshmen; that Carl Lawson will play his natural defensive end positon as well as the new stand-up Buck position; and by not naming his starting linebackers though he has last year's starters returning to the position.
