Auburn's win over Cal on Saturday night was about as ugly as they come. But SEC Network's Paul Finebaum isn't hitting the panic button just yet.
Hugh Freeze and the Auburn Tigers returned to the state of Alabama with a win within its grasp. But boy, it didn’t come easy.
Head coach Hugh Freeze said after the game that he didn’t think Auburn could’ve played “any uglier or sloppier” on offense while crediting the Tigers’ defense for the win. The Auburn offense tallied just six first downs through the first three quarters. Meanwhile, the Tigers passed for less than 100 passing yards and were outgained 273 yards to 230 and committed four turnovers.
The Auburn football team left Auburn on Thursday evening, traveled just less than 2,500 miles and jumped over two time zones before kicking things off late Saturday night. Auburn’s 7:30 PT kickoff on Saturday was the equivalent of kicking the game off at 9:30 p.m. back in Auburn.A strong Auburn contingent also came along with the Tigers, including Auburn men’s basketball coach Bruce Pearl.
