Auburn’s Gritty Win Over Baylor | Auburn Tigers Football News

Auburn clawed their way to a gritty 17-16 win over Baylor in a wild, turnover-filled opener under new coach Alex Golesh. Despite three interceptions from debut QB Byrum Brown and a sluggish offense, Auburn’s defense rose to the occasion—forcing two turnovers, stopping Baylor on fourth down twice, and sealing the victory with a game-saving stop on a last-second two-point attempt. The Tigers’ resilience, led by Brown’s clutch 75-yard drive capped by an 11-yard TD run, showcased a new grit that the old coaching staff might not have possessed. While there’s plenty to fix—turnovers, rushing attack, defensive fatigue—the win keeps Auburn undefeated and signals a promising, hard-fought start.
