ESPN is airing the Auburn-Ole Miss game on Saturday, and the Tigers are showing some fight after going down 21-0 in the first half.
With 5:24 left in the second quarter, the Tigers had cut the Rebels’ lead to 21-14, although it didn’t come without some drama.
As you can see below, cameras captured a shouting match on the sidelines between QB Robby Ashford and RB Tank Bigsby after the first Auburn touchdown:
Yikes.

The broadcast explained that the shouting seemed to be because Bigsby felt Ashford should have given him the ball on the first score, rather than running it in himself.
Ashford’s response seemed to be that it didn’t matter who scored, as the entire team benefited.
Bigsby powered his way into the end zone on Auburn’s next possession, so perhaps all is well moving forward.
