Hugh Freeze had significantly more authority in the playcalling for Auburn's offense against Georgia.
Auburn football head coach Hugh Freeze on the sideline during the second half of an NCAA football game against Georgia on Saturday, Sept. 30, 2023, in Auburn, Ala. Back in July, when all he had to wear was a sports coat and stand in front of a microphone at SEC Media Days in Nashville, Tennessee, Freeze told a group of local media members that he hired offensive coordinator Philip Montgomery to call the plays.
At that point, Freeze said he still reserved the right to jump in to call plays when he felt he had the hot hand. But he wanted to focus on being a CEO, of sorts, and handling all the steps it was going to take to rebuild Auburn. Freeze was very active on the sideline with his play call sheet and shouting out signals to the offense — far more so than any of Auburn’s previous games.
That caused, or maybe forced, Freeze to be more involved this week. It meant sacrificing time to recruit on maybe Auburn’s biggest recruiting weekend of the season — time he was hoping back in July that he’d have now because he hired Montgomery to call plays. Auburn put up 307 yards against the best team in the nation after barely cracking 200 yards against Texas A&M. That total included 219 rushing yards and averaging 5.1 yards per carry.
