What is up everybody – week one of the
college football season. It's early in
the morning and I seem to be the only
one excited here, I know Cole's pretty excited ––
Cole Cubelic here for our SEC insider
segment and we're gonna highlight
one of the bigger games of the week
Auburn versus Washington. That's six
versus nine. Do you think that's the
biggest game of week? One of the
biggest, ask again – is it the biggest game
of week one? I feel pretty confident
about it being one of the biggest games
of the week. I will be there in Atlanta. I just said is it
the biggest and you said one of the
biggest again! Is it the biggest game of
week one? Yes! I think there are a lot of
high implications on this football game
and we're gonna talk about it, so Cole
Cubelic here, of 3Man Front on WJOX, you
can catch him from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00
p.m. on weekdays, don't forget about it,
he's a cool cat. Um yeah, I want to get
your assessment, you've gotten to go to
some of the practices at Auburn you've
gotten to watch this team come together
they're going back to the same stage
they were on the last two games.
Unfortunately things didn't end the way
they'd wanted to and hope for but coming
off that loss those two straight losses
if you will,
overall what's your assessment of this
team? Are they hungry to get back out
there and do you think they've got it
all together for this first game to be
able to beat Washington? They are.
there are absolutely some question marks,
Lauren, I think when you when you
mentioned 0-2 in the stadium, I
don't put as much weight into that I
think if anything they have experience
playing in this Stadium that'll help
them. The Washington kids haven't been in
and seeing the halo scoreboard and
seeing the roof if it's gonna be open,
which now apparently it's and it works,
and there's a lot going on in that
stadium you've been in it you know I
mean, it's it there are distractions
everywhere so it could be a bit of an
advantage for Auburn. The reality is what
this game comes down to is coaching,
execution, players, talent. I don't think
guys like Casey Dunn, the Jacksonville
State transfer, get enough credit for how
good they were for Auburn last year.
Austin Golson, being sort of the Swiss
Army knife for that offensive line last
year, moving around. Braden Smith was an
early draft pick he was just an absolute
statue in that Auburn offensive line for
a long time a guy that was so consistent
so durable played such good football
he's not going to be back on that
offensive line. Prince Tega it has all
the ability in the world at left tackle.
Markel Harrell and Mike Horton have reps
at guard but let's be honest –– if they
were that good they would have been
playing before now. So let's dive a
little deeper into the actual matchup
here: We're gonna go Auburn offense
versus Washington defense. I think the
biggest thing you get Jarrett Stidham back
one of the best quarterbacks in the
country, of course going up against Jake
Browning
on the other side of the football. You
got the injuries at receiver, Will
Hastings, Eli Stove, how big of a impact
is that gonna be especially when you go
up against one of the best defenses in
the pac-12 that really led last year all
major statistical categories and returns
almost all their guys? Well their
good defense and really good inside
linebacker the defensive lines it's
pretty good they lose Vita Vea who was
obviously a stud on that defensive line.
The back end of the defense is where
Auburn should be concerned: really good
safeties for Washington so if they're
able to play with less numbers on the
back end and sort of neutralize what
Jarrett Stidham does well, then that gives
Washington the advantage in the run game
which they might not need because of the
young offensive line anyway. I would
expect the Auburn offense to look like
this – because you don't have the
confidence in the offensive line or
running back just yet and here's the
here's the tough, part practices are
limited in fall, there's no more two-a days, you can't go back-to-back practices
in full pads they're not as physical as
they used to be. The number of practices
is fewer so you can't go into this game
and test a couple tailbacks you can't go
into this game and play three-four
tailbacks and figure out who your best
option is you kind of have to know going
into this game. Same thing with the
offensive line, it's not gonna say we're
gonna play two centers and we're gonna
rotate tackles you better be on your A-game against this Washington defense
because they're really good. I mean guys
like TD Moultry and Big Cat and guys
who played a little bit last year are
gonna play significant roles this year
the defensive tackle spot is deep for
Auburn. So I don't expect them to be
gassed late in the game, but the other
thing about this Lauren, that you got to
keep your eye on, Chris Peterson's gonna
run trick plays. I mean go back to Boise,
go watch this Washington team almost
every game last year they have one or
two for every game they've had the
entire offseason to work on this.
I expect three trick plays in this game
and it could be the momentum shifters in
this game for Washington. So my last
question for you here is, Cole what are
the biggest question marks aside,
the offensive line, that you hope will be
answered after this football game? If
a, if a running back will emerge to be
sort of a guy that Auburn can lean on,
Cam Martin's talented, it's not that he
can't make plays, I believe he can make
plays, but let's let's go back to great
offenses in recent memory –– 2010, 2013, last
year, maybe, maybe post LSU game last year,
Kerryon Johnson, Tre Mason,
Nick Marshall, Cam Newton, Peyton Barber,
there has always been a ball carrier or
two that Auburn has been able to lean on
with a really good offensive line. So we
talked about the offensive line but
there's also been a ball carrier that
this team has been able to lead on. Now
Jarrett Stidham's not that guy cheers to them
can move around a little bit and he'll
pull up a zone read every now and then and
keep it and make your defense sort of
pay if you don't stay at home, but I
think that when you look at who the ball
carrier will be that this team can
potentially lean on down the road, that's
the question that I want to answer.
