Remember Cadillac Williams’ first home game as Auburn’s interim head coach? If not, here's what it was like.
Nearly two weeks of buildup and anticipation led to this moment: Williams’ first home game as Auburn’s interim head coach. He didn’t want this night to be about him, but there was no denying he was the man of the hour under the lights Saturday. He flashed on the screen at the end of the hype video, stared into the camera and delivered the same challenge he offered up earlier in the week: “Auburn family — Let’s. Go. Crazy.
“This place is special,” Williams said. “And to see the support from the fans, like, they put a battery in my back, and they energized me.” Amid a tumultuous season for Auburn that included the firing of then-coach Bryan Harsin on Halloween, Williams’ promotion to interim coach provided optimism and solace. Auburn’s fanbase rallied behind one of their own — a former All-American and one of the greatest running backs to come through the program. Williams’ message after his first game as head coach last week was that Auburn was going to be alright. On Saturday, Auburn’s fans chose to reciprocate the message.
“When we got off the bus, man, we saw that Tiger Walk, man,” running back Tank Bigsby said. “We instantly said, when we got in the locker room, like ‘Bro, it’s back.’ This the feeling we been looking for.”
