It’s not even the second quarter yet, and Auburn already has a commanding 28-7 lead over Purdue in the Music City Bowl.
Widely publicized, Gus Malzahn has taken over the play-calling for this game, and the Tigers’ offense is on fire. Auburn’s offense has had it on four possessions resulting in four TDs.
Malzahn is mixing up the play-calling of run-pass, and the play-actions are certainly working.
The latest came on a 74-yard bomb from Jarrett Stidham to WR Darius Slayton. Purdue’s secondary lost Slayton following the play-action.
