Why Isn’t Auburn Using Jeremiah Cobb?! | Auburn Podcast

Auburn football doesn't just need to beat Vanderbilt. The Tigers need to look different doing it. After the loss to Florida, there are legitimate questions about Byrum Brown, Auburn's offensive line, Jeremiah Cobb's usage, the running game and whether Alex Golesh can adjust his offense to the personnel he actually has. Start with Brown. There were too many plays against Florida where Brown held onto the football waiting for something to develop. Auburn's offensive line hasn't played well enough for that. At some point, the coaching staff has to recognize what this line can and cannot do and build the offense accordingly. Get the football out quicker. Give Brown easier decisions. If the throw isn't there and there's room to run, make the decision and go. Auburn can't continue allowing slow developing plays to turn into sacks and negative situations. That connects directly to another problem: Auburn hasn't started fast offensively this season. The Tigers have yet to consistently take control on the first couple of drives. That's something that needs to change against Vanderbilt. Auburn needs to establish rhythm early rather than spending another Saturday trying to figure out its offense after falling behind.
