Seth Williams, Tank Bigsby earn SEC Player of the Week honors

The two were a major part in helping Auburn come out with a 35-28 victory over Ole Miss on Saturday.

Auburn got big performances from Seth Williams and Tank Bigsby in Saturday’s 35-28 victory over Ole Miss and now they are getting some recognition.

Williams, who caught eight passes for 150 yards and the game-winning, 58-yard touchdown, has earned SEC Co-Offensive Player of the Week. On the game-winning touchdown, Williams caught a back-shoulder pass from Bo Nix with a little more than a minute left and then outraced the Ole Miss defense for the score.

Bigsby was named the SEC Freshman of the Week after rushing for 129 yards and two touchdowns on 24 carries. It is the third straight week in which the true freshman has rushed for more than 100 yards.
