ESPN predicts Auburn women's basketball's season-opener vs. Alabama State
Auburn women's basketball opens the 2026-27 season on Monday in Neville Arena against in-state foe Alabama State, and ESPN expects the Tigers to kick off year two of the Larry Vickers era with a convincing win. ESPN favors the Tigers in their Monday matchup with Alabama State by giving them a 99% chance to win. A win over Alabama State would give Auburn its second season-opening win in as many seasons under Vickers' leadership, and its second win over Alabama State in as many seasons. Last season, the Tigers beat the Hornets, 82-41, behind Mya Petticord's 21-point, four-assist outing. Last season's win over the Hornets was part of Auburn's 8-0 run to begin the season, which included wins over Rutgers, UTSA, and California. Ja'Mia Harris and Kaitlyn Duhon headline Auburn's roster this season as returning players, with Savannah Scott returning to Auburn after spending a season at UCF. Transfers Phoenix Stotijn (Indiana), Zahara Bishop (Seton Hall), and Danielle Osho (Miami) reached double figures in points in Auburn's final preseason exhibition against Columbus State, and freshman Ashley Knox is poised to break out this season. Auburn gets its season underway Monday at 6 p.m. CT against Alabama State. SEC Network+ will

Jeremy Griggs: Worth the Work
Jeremy Griggs has learned that progress in football does not always show up right away on the scoreboard. The Hooper Academy senior plays wide receiver and safety, but his biggest growth has come on defense. Jeremy did not begin playing safety until his junior year, which meant learning to read coverages, anticipate where a quarterback might attack and recognize what was coming before the ball was thrown.

JACKSON, Tenn. -- Ja'Khael Rowser continued his strong season on Saturday, opening and closing the scoring for Tuskegee with touchdown runs in the Golden Tigers 27-13 win over Lane Saturday afternoon at J.F.

Prattville pushes past Opelika with last-second field goal
The Prattville Lions’ special teams play has come up big in the biggest moments of the season. In early September, the Lions played at Hoover and kicker Bryson Francis converted the go-ahead extra point following a Deshawn Hall touchdown reception, and the Lions won 24-23. A few weeks ago, the Lions blocked a potential game-winning field goal on the road against Thompson. It happened again last night. With the score tied at 17 and two seconds remaining on the clock, Francis made a 28-yard field goal to preserve the Lions’ unbeaten regular season.

Texas A&M is bigger, stronger for opener against Alabama State
Texas A&M will take its first step toward what many pundits believe could be a deep NCAA Tournament run when it hosts Alabama State in Tuesday's season opener in College Station. The Aggies have rebuilt under second-year coach Bucky McMillan, who led them to a 22-12 record last year and to the second round of the NCAA Tournament. The Aggies were picked in this year's Southeastern Conference preseason poll to finish ninth in the league. Texas A&M is expected to lean on guard PJ Haggerty, who transferred from Kansas State, where he averaged 23.4 points per game last season. Also in the fold are guards Jordan Pope, who heads south from Texas after scoring 13.1 points per contest in 2025-26, and Tyshawn Archie, who transferred from McNeese, where he averaged 14.3 points last season and hit 65 3-pointers. "We have more attackers, guys who can get to the free throw line, guys that can get to the charge circle and get fouled," McMillan said. "We've got a good team this year. Last year, we were very close." Another key for the Aggies is a bigger front line led by Mackenzie Mgbako, who returns after missing all but seven games with

Carver football's defense builds momentum with dominant win over Enterprise
MILLBROOK — Seven points is all Carver-Montgomery football surrendered to Enterprise, while grabbing three turnovers and two touchdowns on the defensive side of the ball. It was an example by the Wolverine defense of an identity Carver has been building since last season. Carver entered the final week of the regular season looking to build on Week 9's upset of Opelika, a victory that gave the Wolverines one of their biggest wins since Mario White took over the head coaching duties. The 48-14 win over Enterprise at The Fields at 17 Springs on Friday, Oct. 29 — showed that Carver could sustain that level of play. With the postseason approaching, Carver's defense is beginning to look like a strength the Wolverines can build around to make some noise in the AHSAA Class 6A playoffs. How Carver's defense controlled Enterprise Carver's defensive front paved the way for the rest of the defense to have success against Enterprise. There were few throws that Enterprise quarterback Mac Houston made in which he wasn't facing some sort of pressure from a Carver defensive lineman. It was a night that Houston found himself on the turf more times than he would've liked. The defensive front
