Auburn’s defense is looking stout against FCS Alabama State on Saturday afternoon on The Plains.
The Hornets haven’t scored to this point in the first half, but they did get in field goal range midway through the second quarter.
However, that attempt resulted in points for Auburn, as the Tigers blocked the kick and Nehemiah Pritchett scooped it up and returned it for a touchdown:

The Tigers have made a habit of having kick-sixes against teams with “Alabama” in their name. Obviously, the most famous one came against Alabama in the Iron Bowl in 2013.
This one didn’t have the same stakes attached, but it was still an exciting play and helped extend Auburn’s lead.
