Auburn football heads into the 2025 season with major changes on offense, and this breakdown dives deep into what those changes could mean against Baylor. Hugh Freeze has been vocal about adjusting play-calling now that he trusts the kicking game more, potentially unlocking a far more aggressive approach past midfield. With returning offensive talent, improved red zone prospects, and upgrades at key positions, Auburn could look like a completely different team compared to last season’s 5-7 finish.

We’ll also analyze Baylor’s offensive performance from last year and why the hype might be overblown. Despite returning nine of eleven starters, Baylor’s numbers weren’t drastically better than Auburn’s — especially when adjusted for competition. This video compares quarterback play between Sawyer Robertson and Jackson Arnold, the realities of last year’s injuries, and why Auburn’s roster depth and recruiting are closing the gap.

Using film review insights, we’ll explore offensive line stability, wide receiver development, and how Auburn can maximize its talent without falling into predictable schemes. With both teams returning much of their offensive core, this early-season matchup is a true measuring stick for both programs.
