The Auburn Tigers are coming off a 62-17 thumping of Mercer, and they did so without starting quarterback Ashton Daniels. Now, Daniels is assumed to slot back into his starting role, and interim head coach DJ Durkin said that Daniels handled his “off week” like a pro.

It’s no secret that Jackson Arnold will trot out as the starter when Auburn takes the field against Baylor to open up the season, as he’s manned the offense throughout all of preseason camp.
