After a 48-13 loss to Brian Kelly’s 22nd-ranked LSU Tigers on Saturday night — the most points Auburn has ever allowed against LSU — Hugh Freeze is now 0-4 under the lights of Death Valley as a head coach.
Coming into Saturday night, Auburn first-year head coach Hugh Freeze had only ever coached at LSU’s Tiger Stadium wearing an Ole Miss logo on his chest.After a 48-13 loss to Brian Kelly’s 22nd-ranked LSU Tigers on Saturday night — the most points Auburn has ever allowed LSU — Freeze is now 0-4 under the lights of Death Valley.
And everyone figured a night game at LSU’s Tiger Stadium wouldn’t do Auburn in favors as it looked to shake off its road game woes. But, boy, Auburn’s start Saturday night couldn’t have gone any worse than it did. Just two plays after the false start, Freeze was forced to burn a timeout to avoid another pre-snap penalty, only for his offense to nearly turn the ball over out of the timeout as center Avery Jones sent a snap flying at Thorne, who evidently hadn’t called for the snap as the ball ricocheted off his hands.
In Auburn’s second possession, Thorne and the Tigers traveled a mere two yards on three plays before being forced to punt it away again. “I think to this point — and I haven’t watched the future opponents, so nobody… somebody will use it for bulletin board material — but to this point, it’s the best offensive personnel I’ve seen in this league, to this point,” Freeze said of Daniels and Co. during his Monday morning press conference.
Through the air, Daniels finished 20 for 27, good for 325 yards, three touchdowns and an interception.
