Auburn Tigers kicker Anders Carlson (ACL) out for season; QB Bo Nix has successful ankle surgery

AUBURN, Ala. -- Auburn placekicker Anders Carlson is out for the season with an ACL injury while quarterback Bo Nix had season-ending ankle surgery.

Coach Bryan Harsin said that Monday's surgery on Nix was successful, ending his season and his streak of 34 consecutive starts.

Carlson and Nix were both hurt in Saturday's 43-34 loss to Mississippi State, when the Tigers blew a 25-point lead. Carlson had made 14 of 21 kicks.

"Both of those guys are in good spirits, and it's unfortunate what happened to them," Harsin said.
