Auburn Coach Gus Malzahn has announced Sean White will remain the Tigers starting quarterback, even though Auburn has struggled to produce big plays through the air.

The Saints have an extra day to prepare for the Atlanta Falcons, who they host on Monday night. Falcons QB Matt Ryan has been sharp this season, completing 73-percent of his passes, with four touchdowns and one interception, but Atlatna’s defense has given up a bunch of points this season.

Louisiana Tech looks for a much better performance this Saturday when they visit Middle Tennessee. The Bulldogs allowed 666 total yards in a 59-45 loss to Texas Texas last week. Calling the plays for the Blue Raiders this Saturday will be Tony Franklin. He was the offensive coordinator for Tech from 2010 to 2012.

Grambling’s offense has been clicking. The Tigers won their SWAC opener last week by beating Jackson State 35-14. This Saturday Grambling hosts Alcorn State at 6 PM. Fans are encouraged to wear white for the 6 PM kickoff at Robinson Stadium.

Southern also has a SWAC game this Saturday as the Jaguars visit Alabama A-and-M. Southern has already forced nine turnovers through three games.

In the Southland….Southeastern Louisiana begins the home portion of its schedule by hosting winless Northwestern State. The Lions are 12-and-1 in home openers.
