What Freeze and Auburn players have said about Auburn's retooled defensive line through the first two games
Defensively, Auburn looked much better in the second half and throughout the game the defensive line played well.
"There was definitely a positive coming out of Saturday, the way they adjusted and played in the second half,” Hugh Freeze said Monday of the defensive line.There’s been a constant rotation on the interior defensive line, something Freeze said would be the case going into the season. With a unit of primarily newcomers, that group has adjusted quickly.
The unit is made up mostly of transfers, but true freshmen such as Malik Blocton and Amaris Williams have made early contributions too. Faulk, a sophomore, has been arguably the most impressive player on Auburn’s defensive line so far. He had two sacks and three tackles for loss against Cal, with both sacks coming at a critical point in the first half.Freeze called Faulk one of the best leaders on the team following the loss.
