While the programs are strangers, there is one man who’ll be on Auburn’s sideline and has a good bit of history with the opponent: Hugh Freeze.
ADAM COLE Auburn football will make some mild history this weekend, as its matchup with UMass will be a program-first.
Ultimately, Freeze's teams out-scored UMass 212-87, won by an average of 31.3 points, and gave up fewer than 20 points twice. The closest a game ever got was last fall, when the Flames beat UMass 42-24, and did so against a new head coach for the Minutemen. “I think defensively they play as hard as any team in the country,” Freeze said. “And you combine that with Coach Brown's system, which is very chaotic and very hard to identify for your offensive front at times, they will create negative plays with that. That was a big challenge for us last year when we played them up at UMass. They created a lot of negative plays against us. We managed to score enough points to win the game, but it was a challenge.
