The furthest west Hugh Freeze has gone in his head coaching career was Provo, Utah.
Freeze and the Liberty Flames went out to BYU in 2019 — a 2,000-plus mile venture all the way from Liberty’s campus in Lynchburg, Virginia, for a 31-24 loss to the Cougars.
“I told our team when I taught my lesson for the week this morning with them, that’s one of the challenges I have for me is to embrace it because I don’t like it,” Freeze said Monday. “I don’t like scheduling teams on the West Coast. I’d just as soon play somebody over here on the East Coast, but it was done. Me complaining or not embracing it is not the proper response.”
As for what changes for Auburn’s players this week, not much, according to Freeze — “I probably hadn’t put enough thought into it, truthfully.” The bigger difference this week, Freeze said, is that Auburn will practice earlier in the day Thursday before taking off for California later in the day. Friday, Freeze said, “will be a challenge” for Auburn, which will operate as normally time-wise for Auburn as possible. The hardest day, Freeze said, will be game day, when the Tigers play two-and-a-half hours after the usual late kickoff time.
