Auburn head coach Hugh Freeze discussed his starting quarterback's struggles during Wednesday's SEC teleconference call.
Auburn quarterback Payton Thorne looks to run against Texas A&M defensive back Tyreek Chappell during the first half of an NCAA college football game Saturday, Sept. 23, 2023, in College Station, Texas. Echoing a message from his Monday press conference, Auburn head coach Hugh Freeze said during Wednesday’s SEC teleconference that he and the rest of Auburn’s offense have to get Payton Thorne some help.
Thorne has struggled so far this season in four games as Auburn’s starter. He has thrown for 561 yards, four touchdowns and three interceptions. He has frequently mentioned receivers running the wrong routes, but there are plays Freeze still notes — like the wide-open wheel route Jay Fair ran in the first half against Texas A&M — that have not been completed.
