In this story:


Auburn had significant roster turnover after the 2021 season, with seventeen players leaving Bryan Harsin's Auburn program for greener pastures. The headline was Auburn legacy and three-year starter Bo Nix, who transferred to Oregon. This season, Auburn Daily is going to track the transfers and their production at their new schools.

OFFENSE

QB Dee Davis, Alabama State: 6-9, 60 yds, 1 TD; 5 carries for -5 yards

SEASON STATS: 46-76 for 535 yards, 4 TDs, 2 INTs; 32 carries for 59 yds

Davis missed the 2nd half of Alabama State's 26-12 loss to Coach Prime's Jackson State squad in Montgomery. This injury is to the same shoulder that he injured against Miles, forcing him to miss the UCLA game. Head coach Eddie Robinson Jr. said he should be back for next week's game, adding that it's a "pain tolerance" issue. Alabama State hosts Mississippi Valley State on October 15th at ASU Stadium in Montgomery for a "Pink Out", for Breast Cancer Awareness.

RB Shaun Shivers, Indiana: 7 carries for 25 yds; 4 catches for 17 yds

SEASON STATS: 85 carries for 370 yds, 4 TDs; 17 catches for 87 yds, 1 TD

Indiana never could get anything going against undefeated Michigan, losing 31-10. After a 2nd quarter FG that tied it at 10, Indiana didn't score again as Michigan dropped 21 unanswered points to make this a runaway. Indiana hosts Maryland in Big Ten play this Saturday night.

WR Kobe Hudson, UCF: 3 catches for 53 yds

SEASON STATS: 3 GP, 3 catches for 53 yards
