Banks' Heupel Edge Could Shift Game

Auburn’s new safeties coach, Tim Banks, brings a massive strategic edge with five years of firsthand experience coaching under Tennessee’s Josh Heupel—knowing his offense inside out. While Tennessee has its own Auburn ties, Banks’ deep familiarity with Heupel’s playbook and tendencies gives Auburn a tactical advantage heading into their tough October slate, including games against Georgia, LSU, and Ole Miss. With a focused role and potential collaboration with DJ Durkin, Banks could be the key to turning Auburn’s defense around—and navigating one of the toughest stretches in college football.
