It's rivalry week for the Auburn Tigers, and that's a bigger deal in Auburn than in many places. At the end of the week, the Tigers will take on the Alabama Crimson Tide. With five wins under their belts, a bowl game is on the line for the Tigers, but a win could also keep Alabama from heading to the College Football Playoffs.
Auburn soundly defeated Mercer last weekend with true freshman Deuce Knight at the quarterback position while Daniels sat out to preserve his redshirt. It's expected he will return as the Tigers' QB1 this weekend, but there's no doubt that Knight will be ready to go behind him.
