AUBURN, Ala. – It's game week. In five days, Auburn football will kick off the 2023 season at home against UMass. Head coach Hugh Freeze, who will be making his Auburn debut Saturday, previewed the matchup with UMass in his weekly press conference Monday.
"I'm really excited game week is here," Freeze said. "Obviously, a lot of work goes into getting to this point, but we finally know that this Saturday will be real this time. We have to find out what the reveal party shows. This is exciting, and our kids are ready.
"I think our staff is ready and excited about getting into a normal week, and I'm really excited about my first experience running out in Jordan-Hare Stadium. I think that's going to be phenomenal and exciting. I've got more family coming than ever before I think. It's going to be a magical experience in that stadium, provided that we play well. And that's the pressure or the anxiousness that you feel sitting in this chair. We're just waiting to deliver."
