Auburn Tigers 2014-2015 Football Season

The Tigers are also in solid contention for a 2015 national title under head coach Gus Malzahn, despite having their troubles during an 8-5 season in 2014. However, the team's defense will have former Florida head coach Will Muschamp in charge of it again, so the potential for quick improvement is there. The team's offense will be headed by Jeremy Johnson at quarterback, with his main target being D'haquille Williams, who grabbed 45 passes for 730 yards and five touchdowns in 2014. Other receivers like Marcus Davis and Ricardo Louis will also figure to contribute.

In previous years, the zone read has been prominent in the Tiger offense, but in 2015, the running game will help balance things out. Touted junior college transfer Jovon Robinson will battle another newcomer, Roc Thomas for touches in the backfield, but they'll have an experienced line in front of them with Avery Young and Shon Coleman at tackle.

The defensive line needs Carl Lawson to get back to his old self after injury limited his play last year. Meanwhile, Montravius Adams looks to keep developing into a powerhouse at tackle. At linebacker and the defensive backfield, there's plenty of experience available, along with a wild card at safety. Tray Matthews was kicked off Georgia's team for numerous issues, but has the talent to make an impact if his head is on straight.

Keys to an Auburn Tigers Victory Against Louisiana Tech

This section is outdated and will be updated once the season gets rolling. Auburn is favored by around 33 points over Louisiana Tech. So the probability of the Tigers going 4 - 0 to start the year is very good. Sports bettors may want to take a look at Louisiana Tech, as Auburn could easily be overlooking this contest due to the next 6 games they have coming up against ranked opponents. That may provide some value for the Bulldogs, but Auburn could also easily run away with this contest as well. Nick Marshall is one of the best quarterbacks in the nation, and he throws to junior wide receiver D'haquille Williams frequently. Williams has caught 21 of the 32 completed passes Marshall has thrown this year, accounting for a ridiculous 324 out of the 382 yards Marshall has tallied. Senior running back Cameron Artis-Payne is averaging 6.9 yards per carry at home, which is where Auburn will most likely score a victory against the Louisiana Tech Bulldogs on Saturday, September 27.

Auburn Tigers Trivia

You might know a lot about the Auburn Tigers. But did you know that ...

• Although many call Auburn the "War Eagles", that has never been an official nickname for the team. Auburn has always had a tiger mascot (named Auby). War Eagle is the name of the Auburn battle cry.
• In 1988 LSU fans cheered so loudly in Baton Rouge after their team scored the winning touchdown against Auburn that the earth actually shook. A seismograph on campus registered the event as a very small earthquake.
• In the 1994 Auburn - LSU contest, Auburn was losing 23 - 9 going into the 4th quarter. Auburn intercepted an amazing 5 LSU passes in that 4 quarter, returned 3 for touchdowns, and ended up winning the game 30 - 26.
• The Iron Bowl game is played annually between Auburn and Alabama. It is widely regarded as one of the most heated rivalries in all of college football. In the 1972 Iron Bowl, Auburn's Bill Newton blocked not 1, but 2 Alabama punts in the 4th quarter. Both were returned by Auburn player David Langner for touchdowns to win the game.
• For a run of more than 10 years (October 4, 1980 through November 14, 1992) the Auburn Tigers were never shut out in a college football game. That totals 149 games and is the longest "no shutout" stretch in the team's history.
• Arguably the most famous call by legendary Auburn Tigers radio announcer Jim Fyffe occurred in 1993 against hated Alabama. QB Patrick Nix tossed a touchdown to WR Frank Sanders, who made an acrobatic catch which turned momentum in Auburn's favor as they went on to defeat the Crimson Tide.
