It has been a tumultuous offseason in Auburn so far, and ahead of Friday’s Music City Bowl matchup against Purdue, many wondered if the Tigers would show up ready to play.

Indeed, they did, as they rolled to an early 21-0 lead thanks to some big plays and aggressive play-calling by head coach Gus Malzahn. Before the halftime whistle even sounded, it was 49-7 in favor of the Tigers.
