***Pelton said he's seen some improvement from his defensive linemen but it's not where it needs to be.

"Those kids come to work every day," Pelton said.

***Pelton said this season has been tough for him personally, being a part of one of the worst seasons in history. He said he learned to fight through adversity when he was here and he's teaching his kids that now.

"It's been tough. This is me. This is Auburn," Pelton said.

***Pelton said Alabama A&M coach Andy Fuller is a good friend of his and is looking forward to seeing him Saturday.

"We haven't talked but I know he's excited to come back," he said.

***Pelton said the toughest thing for Corey Lemonier has been the lack of development and injuries of some of the other guys. He said Lemonier draws a lot of attention.

"I think Corey gets a tough deal because he doesn't produce as much but that is on the whole group," he said.

***Pelton said Devaunte Sigler has been banged up and that's slowed his development this season.

***Pelton said anytime you coach at Auburn it's an honor to get up and coach everyday.

"You're fighting for your family," he said.
