Auburn football needs to find a way around Tennessee's defensive front, and Alex Golesh may have a clear blueprint for giving Byrum Brown and the Tigers offense a chance in Knoxville. Stretch Tennessee horizontally. Auburn's interior offensive line remains one of the biggest concerns entering this matchup. Wilson Zierer, Kenneth McManus and Cole Best face a difficult assignment against a physical Tennessee front. So make their jobs easier. Outside runs, quick screens, flares and short throws to Chas Nimrod, Keshaun Singleton and Jeremiah Koger can force Tennessee to defend the entire width of the field instead of attacking Auburn's interior offensive line every snap. Then unleash Brown's legs. Auburn has waited too long in previous games to consistently incorporate Brown into the running game. This could be the perfect week to change that. Brown keeping the football on read looks and getting designed rushing opportunities could force Tennessee's defensive front to hesitate while creating more room for everyone else. The timing also works in Auburn's favor. Tennessee is coming off a physical game against Texas, while Auburn has a bye immediately after this matchup before traveling to Georgia. If there was ever a week to increase Brown's rushing workload and empty the playbook, this is it. Auburn needs its offense to look different in Knoxville. #AuburnFootball #ByrumBrown #WarEagle Photo Credit: Jake Crandall/IMAGN Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!
