In a back-and-forth game with the Arkansas Razorbacks, the Auburn Tigers showed a mental toughness that had eluded them in previous games.
With one more chance to go grab a late lead, Arkansas committed its third turnover of the final period. Two receivers ran to the same spot and brought a crowd of defenders as Green threw his second interception. An Auburn first down secured another loss for the Razorbacks.
Whether Auburn cracked the code Saturday remains to be seen. Freeze has been slow to adjust throughout his tenure at Auburn. He's gone all-in on two quarterbacks in the portal – Michigan State 's Payton Thorne and Oklahoma's Arnold – only for both to be benched.
The Auburn Tigers got their first SEC win of the season, inspired in part by a much-needed quarterback change.
Rayshawn Pleasant intercepted two Taylen Green passes in the fourth quarter, including one returned 49 yards for a touchdown that gave Auburn the last lead it would need in a 33-24 win on Saturday.
Arkansas football's best chance at ending a long losing streak got spoiled by three fourth-quarter interceptions from Taylen Green against Auburn.
