Auburn knows its offensive line needs to be better after Baylor win
Summary
-
Auburn allowed five sacks and 11 tackles for loss against Baylor, with Alex Golesh and Joel Gordon identifying interior-line communication, technique and handling of defensive twists as major problems to correct.
-
Auburn guards Cole Skinner and Jacob Strand were injured on the same play, requiring Jack Leyrer and Kail Ellis to take important fourth-quarter snaps, with no recovery timetable supplied in the report.
-
Gordon called for more Jeremiah Cobb touches after Cobb had 12 carries for 53 yards while Byrum Brown led Auburn with 21 attempts, saying the offense cannot rely on its quarterback to carry that much of the rushing workload.
-
Golesh praised Auburn tackles Stanton Ramil and Jo Simmons and center Cole Best's pre-snap identifications, but said the interior blocking needed greater physicality and more consistent execution.
