Auburn 31, Louisiana-Monroe 28 (OT): Cody Parkey kicked a 35-yard field goal in overtime as Auburn held off Louisiana-Monroe for its first win of the season.

Kiehl Frazier threw for 130 yards and a touchdown and also caught a pass for a score to pace the Tigers (1-2, 0-1 SEC).

Louisiana-Monroe's Justin Manton's 37-yard field goal try on the opening possession of overtime missed after being tipped at the line, as the Warhawks (1-1, 0-0 Sun Belt) saw a valiant comeback effort fall just short.

Auburn was led by Onterio McCalebb, as the senior running back scampered for 128 yards and a score. McCalebb's performance moved him past Kenny Irons for 12th place on Auburn's all-time rushing list.

Kolton Browning threw for 237 yards, ran for 58 more and had a part in four touchdowns for the Warhawks, who missed a second consecutive upset by the slightest of margins after knocking off No. 8 Arkansas last week.

GAME NOTEBOOK: Auburn improved to 19-0 all-time against teams from the Sun Belt Conference and 4-0 under head coach Gene Chizik in home openers... The Tigers are now 9-0 all-time against Louisiana-Monroe... The 3-point margin of victory is the smallest in a series that Auburn has dominated, beating ULM by an average of nearly 35 points in eight previous meetings.
