The Auburn Tigers held a brisk, physical two-hour full-contact workout Tuesday evening at the Auburn Athletics Complex Practice Fields, continuing preparation for Saturday's SEC matchup at Ole Miss. That game, at Vaught-Hemingway Stadium in Oxford, will kickoff at 11:21 a.m. CT and will be televised by the SEC Network.  

"This will be a huge challenge for us, but it'll be great for us to go on the road and try to get the win in Oxford," said Auburn head coach Gene Chizik about the week ahead. "It'll take us working to execute our game much better and at a much higher level than we have.  

"We were glad to get back to work today. We're looking forward to getting to Oxford on Saturday and playing again. We just have to go out there and get a good win against a good SEC opponent. That's what we have to do."
