The Auburn Tigers offensive line has struggled ahead of the erratic quarterback play behind them, but head coach Hugh Freeze admits there could be some changes when the Tigers face the Georgia Bulldogs on Saturday.
00:00Too tall will probably get some some more rotation for sure. But, you know, protection wise, guys have you can't get in third and long constantly. And I don't know. I mean, I know you watch other games and it's just it's just not going to work out.
00:18And, you know, the first thing we've got to do is not create penalties that put us in those positions that allow us to get the ball out quicker with with quick game and things that we don't have to constantly throw it down the field or depend upon a draw or or something to try to create an explosive play in those situations where you don't want to, again, put your defense in another disadvantage situation.
00:42So those are very tough. So, again, I don't the pass pro is can we strain more? Sure.
00:52We're not going to win those one on ones all the time in those situations when they know what you have to do, nor is a lot of other teams.
01:02But the teams that are successful on third down are the teams that are winning first down and staying ahead of the chain.
01:07So I think that's our biggest. Yes, we can work on technique. Yes, we can work on, you know, our backs protecting better and using our tight ends.
01:17And but bottom line, let's don't get in those situations too much to where they don't have to be in where the defense has got their ears pinned back constantly coming after us.
