Bodda Getta Daily Brew 8/27: Auburn Soccer Wants a Word

Auburn Football is surely on everyone's minds, but don't sleep on this season of Tigers Soccer

Woodyfred

Good Morning, Auburn Family. Yes, football is starting this Saturday and we couldn’t be more stoked, but there’s another kind of football to put on your radar. Okay, okay, it typically goes by soccer.

We’re only three matches into the 2024 season, and the Tigers have outscored their opponents 13-0. This is just the third time in program history and the first time since 2015 that Auburn Soccer has begun the year with three consecutive shutout victories.

War Eagle!

We’ve got quite a bit mixed in with your Brew today. Check it out below!

🏌🏽‍♂️ Auburn men’s golf assistant coach Chris Williams wins prestigious award
⚽️ LJ Knox voted SEC Defensive Player of the Week
🐅 And much, much more!

🎥 WAREAGLE+: TALKING TIGERS

Talking Tigers - Kickoff on The Plains
We have finally reached game week! Auburn Football will host Alabama A&M in the season opener on Saturday at 6:30 p.m. CT. Auburn Sports Network coverage begins at 3:30 with the Tiger Tailgate Show, presented by Conecuh Sausage. There are many gameday enhancements in and surrounding Auburn home football games this season.

Rhett Hobart, Paris Buchanan & Daniel Watkins with Auburn Athletics head up Kickoff on The Plains, featured in this Talking Tigers Podcast.

🔼 Hard Knox D. After leading the Tigers’ defense to a dominant, two-shutout weekend at home, Auburn soccer senior LJ Knox was voted the Southeastern Conference Defensive Player of the Week.

Knox and the Auburn backline surrendered zero goals and just two shots over 180 minutes of competition. Neither of the conceded shots was placed on frame.

🔼 Auburn Golf Goodness Continues. Auburn men’s golf assistant coach Chris Williams was named the recipient of the 2024 Jan Strickland Outstanding Assistant Coach Award, the Golf Coaches Association of America announced Monday. 

Williams is just the third coach from the SEC to win the award since 2016. He joins Corey Maggard (2018) as Auburn’s second awardee. Head Coach Nick Clinard was announced as the Dave Williams DI National Coach of the Year earlier this summer. 

Williams returns for season four on the Auburn coaching staff as the Tigers look to open the year with an eighth consecutive win at the Inverness Intercollegiate, set for Sept. 9-10.

🔼 Stock is Rising 📈. Auburn soccer player Anna Haddock has been moving her way into second place in school history with an astounding number of career assists. Let’s hit ‘em in the numbers, shall we? 👇🏼

With four assists logged in three games this season and 35 career assists, Haddock is someone you want next to you on the pitch.

🎉TRIVIA ANSWER

Answer: Ziplining across the stadium!

Okay, okay, we pretty much knew no one would guess “ziplining across the stadium.” Still, ICYMI, here is more info on the enhancements made to the Jordan-Hare football gameday experience.
