Davis and Austin will challenge Grissom at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. The Black Bears got just the result they wanted when they last faced the Tigers, probably because Davis had a solid game then too: he threw for 170 yards and a touchdown while completing 71.4% of his passes, and also punched in a rushing score.
