In today’s edition of Auburn Tigers News, transfer LB Keyron Crawford is ready for the SEC opener and we look at the injury report ahead of this week’s game
At the end of April, Auburn football bolstered its defense by adding transfer linebacker Keyron Crawford from Arkansas State. He has quickly emerged as a key contributor, impressing both coaches and teammates.
As a former Sun Belt player, Crawford is eager for his first SEC game this weekend, though he knows the challenge will be tough.
“Coming from the Sun Belt to the SEC with a significant role and facing my first SEC opponent, it’s a ‘kill or be killed’ mentality,” said Buck linebacker Keyron Crawford, via Auburn Rivals. “We either step up to the challenge or back down, and I believe we will rise to it.”
