Alex Golesh exposed Auburn's offense to crowd noise, shifting defensive fronts and chaotic pre-snap looks from the first day of camp to prepare its tempo system for Baylor.

Quarterback Byrum Brown and center Cole Best share responsibility for identifying fronts and changing protections, making their long-developed communication central to Auburn's ability to operate quickly.

Auburn is still emphasizing offensive communication and elimination of pre-snap errors after watching Week 0 teams repeatedly stall drives with operational mistakes.

The defense has also practiced operating through crowd noise because Auburn expects its fan advantage at the neutral-site opener to resemble a home environment.
