The Auburn Tigers host the Arkansas Razorbacks for their SEC opener on Saturday afternoon. If you are wondering how to watch the action live, you have come to the right place.
Auburn football (2-1, 0-0 SEC) hopped back into the win column last week by taking down New Mexico, 45-19. Arkansas (2-1, 0-0 SEC) also grabbed their second win of the season last week by defeating UAB, 37-27. The victory over the Blazers comes after Arkansas lost a tough game to Oklahoma State in week two in overtime.
Both teams allow fewer than 100 yards rushing per game while giving up over 225 yards per contest. Undoubtedly, the team that finds the most success through the air will win the game, but Auburn head coach Hugh Freeze hopes to succeed by using a more balanced attack on Saturday.
“I have said it before, I just believe in being balanced, and I think we were really balanced the other night. I don’t know the numbers run-to-pass, but the yards were very, very balanced. Some of it is predicated on how we feel about our match up, O-Line against their box. Some of it is predicated on the box count and how many is in it as opposed to us throwing the football with it. So, it is just a combination, it is a mixture. I know in the past, people would talk about, ‘Freeze just wants to throw it, throw it, throw it,’ but that has never been the case for me, ever. I like to hand it off a lot. But that average per carry has got to be pretty good, and we have been good in three games, we are above seven yards a carry. But the number of actual handoffs, every game is different based on those things I just mentioned.”
