Auburn Tigers head football coach Hugh Freeze's plan on taking his team on a journey to the CFP depends heavily on QB Jackson Arnold's success rate this season, give or take.
Saturday's practice session gave Arnold exactly the kind of insight he needed to live up to those expectations. The defense easily dominated the offense right from the early 11-on-11 periods.
It did more than just give the offense a wakeup call. It gave Arnold a blueprint for exactly what needs improvement.
"I think our timing routes are something I could improve on from the spring," Arnold said Saturday, talking with reporters post-practice.
