Roundtable: The Auburn Wire staff previews Saturday’s game with Samford

The guys share their final thoughts ahead of Saturday’s homecoming game at Jordan-Hare Stadium.

The Auburn Tigers (2-0) return to Jordan-Hare Stadium on Saturday to face the Samford Bulldogs (1-1) in one final tune-up ahead of next weekend’s SEC opener at Texas A&M.

This week’s roundtable discusses several aspects of last week’s win at California and exhibits what the guys hope to see out of the Tigers in this weekend’s homecoming game.

Hugh Freeze’s use of quarterbacks has been a heavy discussion around the Plains, as well as the less-than-stellar season debut of running back Jarquez Hunter. Defensively, the Auburn Wire staff has different takes on who needs to step up this week, as well as which unit needs to perfect their craft ahead of next weekend’s game at Texas A&M.

Here’s what writers Taylor JonesJD McCarthy, and Brian Hauch are looking for in Auburn’s homecoming tilt with Samford.
