Tracking the Tigers: Where Auburn’s commits will play this week

The high school football season is in full swing and the vast majority of Auburn’s commits are set to take the field on Friday.

Two future teammates will get a chance to square off, as Andalusia and Anniston are set to play. The two teams faced off last season in the playoffs and it will give defensive back Jayden Lewis and running back J'Marrion Burnette a chance to play for some bragging rights.

Two of Auburn’s 17 commits won’t be in action as TJ Lindsey and IMG had their game canceled due to Hurricane Idalia and Jalyn Crawford and Parkview are on a bye.

Here is a look at where the rest of Auburn’s commits will be playing this week.
