Auburn DC DJ Durkin on how the defense moves forward: " The great part is with our guys is that they see it the same way. I think we're all on the same page of what needs to be done, it's not a not a matter of that. And now it's the time to go do it."

Auburn DC DJ Durkin: "That's something we talked about going into the game, you gotta win your 3rd downs, you gotta get off the field and keep those drives short. And we didn't do a good job of that in a lot of those situations."

Auburn DC DJ Durkin on Ole Miss RB Kewan Lacy being out: "I mean, obviously he's a phenomenal player. I don't think really changes what they do offensively in terms of their scheme, their system, what they do. But you know, he's a fantastic football player in a lot of ways."

Auburn OC Joel Gordon on backup QB Tristan Ti'a, who finished the game against LSU: "I thought he did a really good job. He had a plan with the ball. He got his feet set and got the ball out of his hand most times."

Auburn OC Joel Gordon on Ole Miss defense: "They're disruptive, that's where it starts...They're fast and they present a bunch of different pictures. They play hard, and I think that's this conference. You're going to have to push people around up front."

Auburn OC Joel Gordon on the short pass game: "When the score got a little bit lopsided, I think they knew that we were going to have to throw it a little bit more, and they just dropped a bunch of people and made it a little bit harder to keep that going."

Auburn OC Joel Gordon: "We were just not able to hold up as long as we needed to. That happened way too much. We were able to do some good things and then gave up pressure, whatever it was, that just hurt our ability to execute on 1st down, 2nd down and stay out of 3rd-and-long."

Auburn HC Alex Golesh on the O-line: "I think collectively there, didn't get the run game going. There were several factors, I think 1, matchup-wise, the Edges...We didn't protect well, and that's really on everybody."
