Call Mark Stoops the Grim Reaper — because he just got another coach fired. Kentucky wins have led to either the downfall or direct breakups with the likes of Steve Spurrier, Bobby Petrino, Dan Mullen, Will Muschamp, Jeremy Pruitt, Scott Satterfield and Ed Orgeron. Now, Auburn has done the same with Hugh Freeze, the Tigers firing the third-year coach after taking a home loss to the Wildcats on Saturday, according to On3’s Pete Nakos.
Auburn began the 2025 campaign with three consecutive wins, including a victory in its season-opener against Baylor.
