AUBURN, Ala. (AP) – No. 3 Auburn is taking a break from the SEC grind.
The Tigers host FCS team Chattanooga on Saturday. A 19th straight homecoming win seems ensured before rivalry games against Georgia and No. 5 Alabama. Auburn has won all 20 previous meetings with Chattanooga.
Coach Gene Chizik says the perfect scenario is that the Tigers win and improve, not get a blowout to look better for poll voters.
The Tigers have had some stress relief since winning at Mississippi. Chizik hosted a Halloween party on Sunday evening that also featured plenty of comic relief. That included quarterback Cam Newton in a tooth fairy getup.
The Tigers are nearing the end of an 11-week stretch without an open date.
