After a long offseason of huge hype, weeks-long worry and big-name battles, the Auburn Tigers return to action in less than a week.
Saturday's Chick-fil-A Kickoff Classic against Louisville will put an official end to the offseason preparation for head coach Gus Malzahn and his team.
The past few weeks of fall camp have been especially important to what looks to be another dramatic season for the Tigers. Several players moved ahead in a number of competitions for starting jobs, while members of Auburn's star-studded recruiting class earned playing time during their first official practices with the program.
