In what ways will Alex Golesh and company improve the Auburn offense going into the 26th season?
Welcome on in all aboard the Auburn Express Powered by the War Rapport. We are here, Auburn Express TV. You got Ike Jones, my man, Ceasar Walker. We are going to talk Auburn offense. We are going to do this over, under, and push style today, Ceasar. All right. We are going to look at statistics from the 2025 season. And listen, let me just be frank up top. I expect a lot of these to be better. Just expect a lot of these to be better. So I don't know that we are going to have a very in-depth conversation about this because we just should see it. But look at the statistics from last year. And I want to get your opinion. Does Auburn improve in this statistical category offensively? Does Auburn get worse in this statistical category offensively? Or is it going to be about the same this year?
All right. Let's start this off, I think, with the one that is the most important. At the end of the day, you got to put points on the scoreboard, right?
So, the question here, over, under, and push, last season, Auburn scored 26.8 points per game, good for 74th in the country amongst FBS schools. See, more points per game, less points per game, or around the same. Looking at nine-game SEC season, all these great defensive people versus these new USF guys that are in here that are supposedly not able to compete, what do you say?

**Ceasear Walker** (4:29)
Ike, whether it's you, me, or Mike, we are forecasting a better year for Auburn.

**Ike Jones** (4:38)
Yes.

**Ceasear Walker** (4:39)
I don't know how you improve your win-loss record if your offense, which is what's been holding you back for about five or six years, does not improve. It has to improve if Auburn is gonna take a step in year one under this coaching staff. A head coach who, by the way, has not had an offense outside of the top 10 in, I don't know ever, right? Since he's been calling an offense. So there should be, I'm not calling for Auburn to have a top 10 scoring offense.
