Auburn Tigers' Hugh Freeze sees major improvements from second-year players

Last year the Auburn football program welcomed many talented freshmen to its roster, from wide receivers to defensive backs to linemen. Some immediately made a big impact for the team on the field, and others played a more limited role while they waited for their chance to shine.

Heading into their second season on the Plains, Freeze has noticed many of the second-year players have improved their game with a full offseason under their belts.

Wide receiver Malcolm Simmons became a big name for the Tigers last season, but had work to do to cement himself as a regular member of the rotation.
