“We have to improve our technique, we have to improve our passion and strain, and we have to improve as coaches.”Auburn’s issues up front don’t come down to any singular thing. Penalties were the first thing Freeze mentioned when asked about the offensive line. This is a problem that’s often caused by the offensive line, but also makes their job harder. When that happens, Auburn won’t be as predictable on third downs, making the offensive line’s job easier. Freeze still made it clear that the technique and strain can improve on those third-and-long plays, but avoiding them as much possible will go a long way.
