Auburn Has Work to Do | What the First Scrimmage Revealed

Auburn football has completed one of its biggest tests of fall camp, and head coach Alex Golesh wasn’t satisfied. Following Auburn’s team scrimmage at Jordan-Hare Stadium, Golesh described the performance as sloppy on both sides of the football, including mistakes before the snap and execution issues Auburn will need to clean up before the season opener against Baylor. Tyler Raley is joined by new Auburn Undercover staff member Caleb Jones to break down what we learned from the scrimmage and where Auburn stands with the season approaching. The guys dive into an offensive line that could feature seven or eight players in the rotation, Stanton Ramil’s progress, Jacob Strand’s work with the first unit and the continuing search for the right combination up front. They also discuss Byron Brown’s performance, Tristan Ti’a’s development behind him and what Auburn needs from its quarterback room. At running back, Jeremiah Cobb remains a major piece of the offense, but Bryson Washington, Omar Mabson and Alvin Henderson give Auburn several intriguing options. Washington could be particularly interesting when Auburn faces his former team, Baylor. On defense, Auburn is searching for improvement up front while a loaded linebacker room featuring Xavier Atkins, Elijah Melendez, Bryce Diaz and DeMarcus Riddick could be one of the strengths of the entire team. The guys also discuss Champ Anthony’s leadership, versatility and importance to DJ Durkin’s defense.
