Hugh Freeze has brutal comment after another Auburn collapse

Auburn coach Hugh Freeze was struggling to come up with answers Saturday after his team threw away another lead late.

Auburn led Missouri 17-3 at one point in the third quarter, but Mizzou rallied and went ahead for good on a four-yard touchdown run with 46 seconds left in the fourth quarter. It marked the second time in three weeks Auburn let a fourth-quarter lead slip, having done so against Oklahoma on Sept. 28 as well.

After the game, Freeze took his share of the blame, but he offered a fairly brutal assessment of his staff’s performance.
