Coming into the 2025 college football season, Auburn head coach Hugh Freeze's name could be found on every hot seat list after a disappointing start to his tenure on the Plains.
Two weeks and two wins later, things are easing up on the 55-year-old Mississippi native as this season has started as well as you could expect for the Tigers.
Led by 137 rushing yards and two touchdowns from the legs of quarterback Jackson Arnold, Auburn went down to Waco, Texas, and defeated a Baylor team that some have picked to win the Big 12. The Tigers' rushing offense dominated the game, putting up 307 yards and four scores, while the defense came up with some timely stops late.
