The Auburn football program will turn a new leaf and begin the Hugh Freeze era this fall, but the 2024 season will really kick things off. Texas and Oklahoma will both join the Southeastern Conference, divisions will be eliminated, and things will look pretty different for most teams.
The 2024 season will be hugely important for Freeze as it will be the first year that he has truly brought in a recruiting class of his own, and he will have experienced his second offseason as Auburn football’s head coach.
With the lack of East and West divisions, the Tigers will have a less brutal than usual schedule next year, giving Freeze and the team the opportunity to pull off something big after having gotten their feet under them in year one.
