Auburn Benches Jackson Arnold as Ashton Daniels Closes Win; Hugh Freeze Weighs QB Call

Freeze will review the film before naming a starter, leaving the quarterback competition unresolved.

Overview

  • Jackson Arnold was pulled late in the second quarter after an 89-yard pick-six put Auburn down 21-10 at halftime.
  • Ashton Daniels took over and stayed under center as Auburn beat Arkansas 33-24 in Fayetteville.
  • The Stanford transfer completed nearly all of his throws, rushed for 35 yards, and converted a fourth-quarter two-point attempt.
  • Hugh Freeze said he will evaluate the game tape and expects to have a clearer direction by Monday without committing to a starter.
  • Arnold finished 7-of-12 for 73 yards with a touchdown and an interception, and Auburn's next opponent is Kentucky.
