Hugh Freeze and the Auburn coaches receive an F grade for a second week in a row.
Auburn head coach Hugh Freeze, center, and quarterback Robby Ashford react after an interception by Mississippi during the second half of an NCAA college football game, Saturday, Oct. 21, 2023, in Auburn, Ala. Auburn looked as bad as it has all season in a 28-21 loss to No. 13 Ole Miss on Saturday. The score was not indicative of how this game went.
Auburn is passing for barely more than 100 yards in SEC games. This offense is historically bad. Auburn’s ranking as a bottom-10 offense in terms of passing yards per game is only going to get worse.Auburn’s offense only made one first down between the 10:40 to-go mark in the first half and the end of the third quarter. That’s abysmal. Auburn had five three-and-outs and punted six times. It threw two wildly costly interceptions and turned the ball over on down on its first possession.
But it was never going to last. It can’t forever, especially when the defense was left out on the field for nearly 35 minutes. There were also a few close calls that could have impacted the result of this game, highlighted by freshman Kayin Lee not fully getting a hold of an Ole Miss muffed punt. Auburn needed that ball badly in the hindsight of this game. Should’ve, would’ve, could’ve.Offensive coordinator Philip Montgomery cannot and should not recover from this game. The continuing and repetitive failures of this offense fall purely on head coach Hugh Freeze and Montgomery.
Public opinion is unlikely to flip back with an offense that doesn’t appear capable of improving significantly now seven games into the season.
