Episode 428: Better Late Than Never (feat. Henry Patton)

Justin and Dan open the show by breaking down Auburn football’s 24-10 road win at Kentucky. They start with the resilient play of the Tigers’ defense, which won big at the line of scrimmage and played well on the back end down the stretch. Dan projects what Auburn’s secondary might look like in 2025 after throwing so many young players into the fire.

The guys then switch over to the offensive performance. Justin explains why Auburn went so pass-heavy early and how the Tigers finally made the adjustment they needed to dominate the game. They rave over Jarquez Hunter’s historic rushing performance and how he deserved a moment like this.

In the second half of the episode, Henry Patton of Auburn Rivals calls in from South Carolina to share what he saw in the basketball exhibition win over Furman. Henry explains why Auburn’s defense was so successful, how fans shouldn’t overreact to individual performances and where the two true freshmen stood out the most. The show ends with a discussion of Stanley Kubrick and Halloween movies.
