Josh Bynes (17)
Linebacker
A senior from Lauderdale Lakes, Fla., Josh Bynes has caused a ruckus in the SEC during his Auburn career. Standing 6’2″ and pushing 240 pounds, Bynes has led the top-ranked Tigers with 71 tackles this season, including 5.5 tackles for loss, three interceptions, eight quarterback hits and one forced fumble. His experience will be crucial as Auburn looks to slow Oregon’s dynamic offense.
Kenjon Barner (24)
Running back
In his first trip to Reser Stadium, sophomore running back Kenjon Barner reminded fans just how talented Oregon’s second-stringer really is. His 133-yard outburst set the stage for another big postseason, having already proven his big-game status in last year’s Rose Bowl loss to Ohio State. Barner has tallied 519 yards and six touchdowns on the ground this season, and will need to be as physical as ever when facing a front seven led by Bynes.
