Even @Crissy Froyd took to X to confirm the news, saying, “Injured player down on the field for Auburn is senior TE Luke Deal.”Well, injuries are the worst thing that could happen to any player during their game. And in such an important game, it’s hard to lose important players like Luke Deal. However, there are still no updates regarding his injury. He was just seen walking off the field, but we will know soon after the announcement.

Luke Deal is a key player for Auburn’s offense. Even though the team lost their last week game against Oklahoma with a high-margin score of 27-21, Luke’s 1-yard touchdown catch gave the Tigers a 21-10 lead over the Sooners. After the game, when Luke was asked about his touchdown, he replied with quiet satisfaction, saying, “First touchdown in a long time, but yeah, we ran it all week in practice. They actually gave us the worst look possible, but I’m glad Payton still had the guts to throw it.” Well, it was Deal’s first touchdown since 2021. Now you can understand how much he was needed for this game. Let’s see who else is not playing today because of injury.
