Offensive coordinator Chip Lindsey did not dial up the jet sweep Saturday against No. 6 Washington.
The assumption that Auburn didn’t run it because Eli Stove, the player who got the call most the time last season, is recovering from an ACL injury and not in uniform would be easy to make.
But that wasn’t the case, Lindsey said Sunday.
Auburn OC Chip Lindsey said the Tigers' offense didn't run any jet sweeps against Washington because the Huskies "played their ends really wide."

The Washington defense is one of the nation’s best and it covers extremely well from sideline to sideline.
