Gus Malzahn updates status of Tank Bigsby ahead of Iron Bowl

Our friends over at Auburn Wire shared an update on the status of Tigers running back Tank Bigsby ahead of the upcoming Iron Bowl.

This story was originally published on Auburn Wire.

Auburn will need full hands on deck this Saturday when the Tigers travel to Tuscaloosa to take on No. 1 Alabama.

One of the players that may not be available is star freshman running back Tank Bigsby who suffered an injury during the first quarter of Saturday’s victory against Tennessee.

Bigsby’s injury came on his second run of the game when he was slammed down by a Tennessee defender. He returned for one more carry before being pulled for the game.

If he is not able to go, the Tigers will rely on Shaun Shivers and D.J. Williams to carry the load at running back.
