I believe they won in spite of one of the worst head coaches I have ever seen at Auburn University. I guess Hugh Freeze gets some credit for the team sticking together and for his recruiting as compared to Arkansas. However he is literally the worst x's and o's coach I have ever seen in my life. I want to make that doubly clear he is literally the worst x's and o's coach I have ever seen in my life. I believe the Auburn football team won in spite of him and his staff's horrific offensive coaching. I congratulate defensive coordinator D.J. Durkin for another great job getting his unit ready to play. They made some big mistakes but made more big plays.
I believe Auburn will beat Kentucky next week. I believe Auburn could win or lose at Vanderbilt the next game. I believe Auburn will then beat Mercer and lose in the Iron Bowl. Auburn will end at 6-6 or 7-5 and go to a bowl game which I think they might actually win since it has been so long (Auburn hasn't been to a bowl game since 2021 and has only won bowl games in 2011, 2015, and 2018 since the 2010 national championship). I believe this season will then be hailed as a major improvement and Hugh Freeze will give a sermon about perseverance. I believe a large number of Auburn fans will forget about the horrendous coaching and losses from this season and start looking forward to next season.
I believe in the midst of all this false optimism a number of key players will leave the program. I believe Cam Coleman will leave. I believe at least another one of the better wide receivers will leave. I believe a number of key defensive players we can't afford to pay will leave for the money. I believe there is a good chance D.J. Durkin will leave. The majority of the offensive line are seniors and will be gone and I believe they will not be replaced by better players. I believe the football team Auburn starts next season with will not be as good as the football team this season. It may not be close. I believe Auburn will have a new offensive coordinator trying to implement a new system in the middle of all this.
I believe in spite of that our evidently do-not-care-about-winning top boosters, our moronic administration, Hugh Freeze, and a number of our non-competitive fans will actually go into next season expecting a better days... The 2026 Auburn football team will then run straight into the new nine game conference schedule which they will start by playing five of those nine games on the road against Bama, Georgia, Tennessee, Ole Miss, and Mississippi State with home games against LSU, Florida, Vanderbilt, and Arkansas plus playing Baylor in Atlanta (a home game our brilliant athletic director willingly gave away) and two cupcakes. Again I believe Auburn will enter that meat grinder of a schedule with a lesser team and the worst x's and o's coach I have ever seen.
I believe with all that said that next season will be much worse than this one and Auburn will regret not going ahead and firing Hugh Freeze and possibly getting a new coach in place. All I have heard is how hard it would be to try and hire another coach this year, well wait till the team is worse and the program is in even a lower spot. It will be harder. Finally, I believe this will set an already struggling program back even more especially now that Auburn not only has to go on the road to both Bama and Georgia every other year but must also play their five road conference games in those years. Great job athletic director. I apologize for a depressing and hopeless post but I call it like I see it. I hope I am wrong... but I am not.
