No, you are just wrong.
"War Eagle" is Auburn's battle cry -- not a mascot or nickname.

"The Auburn Band had been playing the Auburn Victory March as a fight song for decades. But in 1954, Auburn supporter Roy B. Sewell thought that the old tune was outdated and something new was in order. After several failed attempts from students and fans, Sewell commissioned two New York songwriters named Robert Allen and Al Stillman to write the words and music for a new fight song.
Thus War Eagle was born as the new Auburn fight song."

Even the fight song DOESN'T mention "tigers"!
