Tank Bigsby has been enjoying a great game against Western Kentucky as Auburn faces the Hilltoppers on Senior Day at Jordan-Hare Stadium.
The Tigers entered Saturday at 4-6 and looking to make it 2 wins in a row under interim head coach Cadillac Williams. A win against WKU would mean that their bowl hopes would remain alive heading into the Iron Bowl against Alabama on Nov. 26.
Bigsby, with his team up 20-17 late in the 3rd quarter, is doing his part. He punched one in on the opening drive to give the Tigers the lead with 7 minutes to go in the 1st. With just over a minute to go in the 3rd, he was back in the end zone, taking it down the left sideline and in for the score as the Tigers extended their lead to 10:

Bigsby now has 10 touchdowns in a season for the second straight year. He now has 25 for his career, putting him among the top 10 in program history.
Can the Tigers hold on and see this one out to the end?
