The track that’s “Too Tough To Tame” will host the regular-season finale Sunday night
ADAM COLE Neither Auburn nor Alabama A&M had even logged a play in the second half when a referee’s voice boomed over the Jordan-Hare Stadium PA system. An agreement had been reached between the Tigers and the Bulldogs, he said, to reduce the third and fourth quarters to 10 minutes each.By the night’s end, Auburn had handedly come away with a season-opening win, beating Alabama A&M 73-3.
Akin to the evening’s quick second half, Auburn didn’t need much time to get the fast-tempo offense it wants to play this season going. Auburn went into intermission with 50-plus points, but it did so while possessing the ball for just 9:37 of game time. It ended the night with another three touchdowns, but it only had one drive lasting longer than 2:31.It’s early, but perhaps Auburn’s overhaul of its wide receiver room will pay dividends.
Two other members of the Freeze Four were similarly significant, with Cam Coleman and Perry Thompson III each hauling in a pair of receptions. Coleman’s two grabs went for 62 yards and Thompson’s for 82. Both also had a touchdown reception, for 44 and 70 yards, respectively.
