August 23 Can Auburn Make Jordan-Hare Scary Again?
Auburn football used to mean one thing when you walked into Jordan-Hare Stadium: you were in for a fight.
That hasn’t been the case nearly enough in recent years.
This show is about changing that. Auburn needs to take back its home field, protect Jordan-Hare, and make the Plains a place opponents absolutely do not want to play. We’ll talk about why that edge has disappeared, what needs to change, and whether Auburn can build a true home-field advantage again.
