 Auburn started it's SEC home schedule Saturday evening and dismantled Mississippi State by a score of 49-10.

Last week we asked you if Auburn had improved offensively, or was Missouri that bad?

Saturday in Jordan-Hare Stadium we were shown just how much Auburn has improved. With nearly perfect game in all three phases, this Tiger team is trending in the right direction.

A missed FG attempt  and two fumbles may be the only flaws in an otherwise masterful performance.

Watching the Tigers one-two punch at QB is refreshing as well. Jarrett Stidham went 13 for 16 passing with 264 yards and Malik Willis came in once again in clean up, and put on a show of his own.

Next up are the Rebel/Black Bear/ Landsharks of Ole' Miss. The game is set to start at 12:00 noon ET/ 11:00 CT.

It's an early kickoff, so be ready, and bring lots of sunscreen and your sunglasses.

WAR EAGLE!
