Vandy is only two wins away from becoming eligible for a bowl.
The Tigers won their fifth straight game, 40-29 against the Ole Miss Rebels on Saturday. Running back Kamryn Pettway rushed for 236 yards on 30 carries and one TD, and “he also ran over some people,” according to Auburn head coach Gus Malzahn. How charming indeed. The Tigers posted 554 total yards. Auburn’s kicker Daniel Carlson made all four of his field goal attempts, including a one from 47 yards in the fourth quarter that put the Tigers ahead 33-29.
