In a pivotal matchup between Auburn and Baylor on Friday night, former LSU defensive coordinator Dave Aranda saw Jackson Arnold run wild against his Baylor defense. The Oklahoma transfer QB ran for 137 yards and two touchdowns to hand the Bears a 38-24 defeat in front of their home fans. It's a massive win for Hugh Freeze and Auburn, and an equally disappointing loss for Aranda and Baylor.
The game had huge implications for both head coaches, as both programs have disappointed in recent seasons. In the end, it was Freeze's complete dedication to the run game that left Aranda scratching his head.
