Having uncontrolled eosinophilic esophagitis or EOE can mean you're stuck in many ways, like cutting your food into tiny pieces or stuck chewing food for a long time. Dupixent Dupilimab, a prescription medicine for patients one year and older, weighing at least 33 pounds can help with that. It's a breakthrough treatment that can reduce inflammation in the esophagus and improve swallowing.

How about this? Dupixent is not a steroid. It proactively treats EOE so you can get ahead of it.

SPEAKER_7 (2:34)

Severe allergic reactions, including skin reactions, can occur. Get help right away if you have trouble breathing or wheezing or swelling of your face, mouth, tongue, or throat.

We're running on time and expecting no hiccups. Doing the work, hard work, to bring you the best Auburn Sports content you'll find anywhere.

Ike Jones (3:51)

Just like how we had the conversation about Auburn should be an eight-win team, and that's the standard. The defense is to not let the other team score. I don't care. Correct.

SPEAKER_4 (4:00)

Correct. Correct.

Mike G (4:01)

I'm just saying, we don't see many goose eggs.

Ike Jones (4:06)

No, I mean, I don't disagree. If we're ranking problems, it doesn't start.

Mike G (4:11)

It's so far down on my list for this game. It's so far down on my list.

Ike Jones (4:14)

Yeah, I agree.

Mike G (4:15)

Mentioning it in your opening statement. No, no, no, no. Explain your offense.

Explain why an offensive head coach and give those seven points in the first half to the defense, by the way.

Ike Jones (4:31)

Agreed.

Mike G (4:32)

Because if they had to drive the length of the field, Ike, they weren't going to make it.

Ike Jones (4:37)

Yeah, there was nothing to substantiate an idea that that offense was going to sustain a drive in the first half.

Mike G (4:43)

No, no, no, no. Xavier Atkins gave you a short field to work with. Defense to the rescue or they score seven points in this game. How many times have I said it? Go back and look at the last few years, five years, and count up the amount of games Auburn lost because they couldn't score 21 American football points. You scored 14, you lost.

That was it. The Sean Bishop was their entire offense.
