Auburn Football's Pivotal Season: Why Year 2 Under Hugh Freeze Matters Most
Auburn football faces a crucial season under coach Hugh Freeze. After years of struggles, this season could define the program's future in the SEC.
Year two under Hugh Freeze is shaping up to be the most crucial season in his coaching career at Auburn. Over the past decade, Auburn's football program has gone from competing for SEC and national titles to struggling. The team has won just 73 games in the last ten years, the same number as Ole Miss and Mississippi State, placing them sixth in the conference.
In the past three years, Auburn has experienced three consecutive losing seasons, a situation they haven’t faced in nearly 50 years. This unfortunate streak is something they now share with only two other SEC teams: Florida and Vanderbilt.
