12/03/2008 - Auburn, AL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Tommy Tuberville has resigned as head football coach at Auburn.
Tuberville guided the Tigers, who entered the season ranked 10th in the nation, to a paltry 5-7 record. It concluded with a 36-0 drubbing by top- ranked Alabama in the annual Iron Bowl on Saturday, ending any chance the Tigers had at a bowl appearance.
In 10 seasons at Auburn, Tuberville compiled an 85-40 record, including a 13-0 campaign and No. 2 national ranking in 2004.
"The last 10 years have been a great time in my life, both professionally and personally," Tuberville said in a statement. "It's been a great place to coach and live, and we've had a lot of success along the way. I'm going to remain in Auburn and help the Auburn family however I can. I'm very appreciative of the coaches, players, staff and Auburn fans over the last decade."
Tuberville had a contract to coach at Auburn through 2013, but the school announced they will buy out the remainder of the deal, from which no state or university funds will be used.
"Tommy and I have had the opportunity to discuss the direction of the program," said Auburn athletics director Jay Jacobs. "Through those discussions, Tommy felt it would be in his and the program's best interest to step aside as Auburn's head football coach."

Dallas Cowboys Super Bowl Odds
Will he or won't he? Now that the Dallas Cowboys have a new head coach in Wade Phillips, the big question will be: Does Terrell Owens stay with the team.
Jerry Jones continues to suggest that Terrell Owens will remain with the team.
"I've said that he's back, he's here, he's under contract," Jones said. "In the interviews I've just been through (to hire a new coach), it was very clear to me how highly he's thought of and how much of an impact he had on our offensive success."
Just to be sure though, Terrell Owens cleared out his locker and removed his name plate.
Terrell Owens was among the Cowboys most productive players this past season, catching 85 passes for 1,180 yards and a league-best 13 touchdowns.
But T.O. is due a $3 million roster bonus in June, then a $5 million salary this season. Cutting him before then would save a lot of money and headaches.
Aside from the questions surrounding Terrell Owens, the oddsmakers at MySportsbook.com have concerns over starting quarterback Tony Romo's state of mind and whether he will remain a starting quarterback. It is also not known how players will adjust to new head coach, Wade Phillips.
