Run stoppers: Auburn routs Ball State 42-3 in Kickoff on The Plains
Was worried about the secondary. Haven't seen the whole game yet, so not sure how they did, or if it was a test at all.

Got around to watching the game, and it looked decent enough. Arnold tried to get a little cute in the first half. Got sacked, and then lost 3-yards while risking injury leaning into an oncoming defender running out of bounds. Just dumb play on both accounts. Hopefully he learned from that. Other than that, was happy to see Knight get some time. Hope to see him more during the season. Would really hate to lose him to the portal. Was also happy to see the receivers more involved. The Baylor game was pretty one-sided for the offense. Without the receivers, we're toast in conference play. Plus, they won't stick around if they're not seeing passes come their way.
