Freeze on Thin Ice? Auburn's Hot Seat Heats Up

Hugh Freeze is heading into his third season at Auburn, and let's just say the pressure is ON. After a couple of seasons that didn't exactly set the Plains on fire, expectations are sky-high. Last year? A total buzzkill, ending with a 5-7 record and no bowl game invite. Ouch.

Bowl Game or Bust... Or Else?

Freeze himself acknowledges the heat. He recently told The Next Round that a bowl game is a must.

"I'm not a fool. I think we've got to go to a bowl game."

More Than Just Bowl Eligibility Needed!

Here's the thing, though, Coach: Auburn faithful are craving MORE than just a measly bowl appearance. Six wins might get you eligible, but it won't get you a parade. To keep the fans happy (and the AD off his back), Freeze needs to deliver a season that has some real bite. It's time for the Tigers to roar, not just meow.
