The Auburn Express

Week one of the 2025 season showed the nation what Auburn football could become under Hugh Freeze. The conversation starts with Jackson Arnold and the trenches. Arnold rushed for 137 yards, making him the SEC’s leading rusher after one week. He looked every bit the freak athlete Auburn thought they were getting, and the scary part is—he hasn’t even played his best football yet. Auburn’s run game r...

Auburn defense swagger back. That is the energy I have been begging to see, and it finally felt real. I love a confident group as long as they back it up. You remember that moment when a DB told his quarterback to get ready because he was about to go take the ball back? That is the mentality this defense needs. No pouting after a turnover. No moping. Go make a play, hand your QB the rock, and tell...

Auburn’s defense just sent a loud message to the rest of college football. Friday night was proof that this pass rush is not just good — it’s game-changing. Baylor quarterback Sawyer Robertson came into the matchup as one of the most protected QBs in the Big 12 last season, pressured on less than 24% of his dropbacks. Against Auburn, that completely flipped. Robertson was sacked multiple times, fl...

It wasn’t “sick them bears.” It was “sick of them bears” — and they got sent packing. From the opening adjustments to the closing kneel, this one was about patience, reads, and wearing out a front that never found answers. The offense didn’t chase hero-ball; it hunted yards.
