After experiencing his first Auburn-Georgia rivalry game Saturday, Hugh Freeze hopes the rivalry game is here to stay despite the SEC's approaching changes.
Auburn first-year head coach Hugh Freeze coached in his first Auburn-Georgia rivalry game on Saturday in front of a Jordan-Hare Stadium crowd that was brimming over.
“I just got to experience it for the first time and I loved every minute of it, other than the outcome,” Freeze said of the rivalry during a speaking engagement with the Monday Morning Quarterback Club in Birmingham.The Auburn-Georgia rivalry, affectionately known as The Deep South’s Oldest Rivalry, is just one of many inner-conference rivalries that exist within the confines of the SEC.
The 2024 SEC schedules of each member football program was unveiled back in June with every pre-existing program set to play either Texas or Oklahoma in year No. 1 of the new-look conference. “I think we’ll always have at least the Alabama rivalry,” Freeze said. “I think we’ll miss this one if... depending on the numbers and all that. I’ll let John handle all of that.”
