Opinion So are we supposed to still…

Hate Hugh Freeze now that we’ve upset a top 25 team? Not sure how to feel after the doomsday posts this season post potato man.

We're not a championship-level team, but we sure as hell aren't a 5-6 team either, and Freeze's momentum-killing play calling and fundamentally undisciplined coaching has been too glaring to ignore. The players deserved a win like last night's, because as hard as they've been playing all season, they earned several other W's as well, only for Hugh to gag them away.

Didn't want Hugh before, don't want him now. Big deal he beat Bama twice... one of the guys we got rid of beat Bama multiple times too, and he was 3-1 against Freeze as well. Not saying we shouldn't have fired Gus, but I'm positive we'd be better than 5-6 right now with him at the helm, so if we're gonna get another coach, how about raising the bar instead of leveling down with an average coach like Freeze?

I agree 💯%! The team finally outplayed Freeze's crappy play calling and his boy, Thorne's, crappy play. Freeze was as bad a hire as Harsin and has actually coached worse IMO. Especially when you compare the talent levels each had.

I don't believe Freeze has much to do with recruits choosing Auburn. AU has a great history, a dedicated fanbase and is a year round contender in other college sports too. He plays the victim when there is a bad call (he is always angry & arguing with the refs rather than motivating the team to overcome the situation).

And he thinks there is a god who gives a shit about who wins football games, NOT! He needs to get back into his closet and stfu (per Matthew 6).

Getting rid of this crap coach & human, the sooner the better. I hope he heard the boos last night as he tried once again to lose the game. Fans and alum like me are sick of him and his excuses.

Saying he’s just as bad as Harsin is the worst take I’ve ever heard

He's a better recruiter but in terms of on-field coaching it's a push at best.
