We are set to speak with Hugh Freeze following Auburn's 27-21 loss to Oklahoma.

*** I couldn't be prouder of their effort and the preparation this week and how they worked. They played hard and deserved to win the game. It's not on them and their effort. I got to find a way to win these games.
*** Offensive plan was effective. Ran the ball effectively. Shouldn't have put Thorne in that situation on 3rd when he threw the pick six.
*** "This one stings for sure."
*** On throwing it twice after getting the ball down to the 33-yard line. "Yeah, I have to have him understand the situation there." Needed Thorne to get into those running situations.
*** On fourth down stop and then running just 1:38 off the clock: "Run the football and milk the clock."
*** Mentions the Tigers should have had 10 more points int he first half. "That matters in games like this in this league."
*** It's kind of been a story of Auburn outgunning the other team by a good amount but not winning the football games.
***"It's going to be hard to win against Oklahoma when they know you are throwing. They have proved they are some of the best in pass rushing.
*** "The margin of error feels very, very small. You feel the weight of every play call. I'm sure the players feel the weight."
*** Was this a game that they felt they could win just running the ball? "I felt like we could win the game. I thought we had to be balanced."
*** "I honestly felt like we were going to win this football game all week and this morning."
*** A fan who is somehow credentialed and wearing an Auburn hat and shirt just brought up Pat Dye's quote.
** "Just tell him I love him. Go back to work and get it corrected so we win these games." - on what he says to Thorne.
That's it for Hugh.
