The Auburn Tigers did not achieve what they wanted to in terms of wins and losses this season, and that is the main reason why they have a new head coach leading their program in Alex Golesh.

For all the negatives of the Hugh Freeze era though — most of which fell on Saturdays in the fall — Freeze did in fact perform a great job rebuilding the level of talent on the roster and left Auburn a much better place than he found it. At least in terms of average quality of player on the team.

This is reflected by two Auburn Tigers already accepting invitations to the Senior Bowl coming up after the season in Mobile, which invites only the best of the best players as the first real step in the NFL draft process.

Two Auburn stars have already accepted, one of them being star right guard Jeremiah Wright, who just wrapped up his fifth season on The Plains with his best year yet and started 24 straight games to end his career.

The second player is defensive end and pass rushing specialist Keyron Crawford, who transferred to Auburn two years ago from Arkansas State and became one of the best players on the team. In 2025, Crawford racked up 36 tackles, 9.5 tackles for loss and five sacks.

Auburn has some other invitations out including fellow defensive end Keldric Faulk, who would instantly become the best player representing Auburn, but because of his guaranteed first round pick status, sometimes player rated that highly elect not to attend the game.

Regardless, it should be a tremendous showing in late January in the Port City for fans of the Auburn Tigers.
