Auburn Tigers head coach Hugh Freeze lays down a significant marker of hostile future intent.
Cutting the 3rd and 4th quarters down to ten minutes a piece showed admirable mercy from both head coaches - they should be applauded. It also provided a more common sense solution to the on-going carnage, especially during a game where the most hotly-contested match ups were played out at the concession stands.
"Obviously, I wish they were all kind of like that," Freeze said after the game. "They won't be, but it is good to see a lot of kids get involved and a lot of faces. We got a lot of things to clean up, but certainly pleased with a lot of aspects." Quite surprisingly, Cam Coleman didn't have the longest one either, the much-hyped receiver saw his 44 yard score eclipsed by Perry Thompson's 70 yard trip to the end zone, and Malcom Simmons’s late 57 yard effort from backup quarterback Hank Brown."They were stuffing the box," Coleman noted of the failed A&M strategy. "We had to throw the ball. When we threw the ball, we made big plays.
That doesn't mean Tigers fans should be dancing like Pat McAfee just yet, even a dummy could tell you a smorgasbord of significantly more formidable challenges will lie ahead.
