After a wild win over the LSU Tigers, Auburn utterly destroyed Louisiana-Monroe.

I’m not sure there was a more complete win in the SEC this past weekend, than the kind of domination that Auburn showed against the Warhawks. Auburn’s offense has looked good against lesser competition, but this type of outing is nothing but a confidence booster for a young offense. The Tiger defense continued to be stellar, holding ULM to only 7 points. Auburn’s defense has been known, now it is up to the offense to continue to do well when the competition level increases.

Next game: October 8, at Mississippi State, 12:00pm ET SEC Network
