Auburn and Missouri have played some really good games against each other over the last decade or so. The 2013 SEC Championship game was a top five battle. The trip to Jordan-Hare in 2022 had one of the craziest endings we’ve seen in awhile. But Saturday may have been better than all of them.
Brady Cook led Misosuri to a 21-17 come from behind win at home to beat Auburn in Columbia. The win was capped off with a 17-play, 95 yard drive that scored the go ahead touchdown with 46 seconds to go in the game.
Cook left the game on the second series with an ankle injury. He went to the hospital for an MRI before returning to the stadium. Cook stretched at the indoor track facility and then returned to the game late in the third quarter to lead two touchdown drives for the Tigers.
After the game, social media reacted with less than thrilling responses for Auburn and Hugh Freeze. Here were some of our favorites from today.
It’s actually comical how often Hugh Freeze is finding himself on the wrong side of these kinda stats. https://t.co/8rKAIYNcAl pic.twitter.com/Nas582Jf85

Bryan Harsin never started 2-5 overall and 0-4 in the SEC.
Said it before, and it bears repeating. Hugh Freeze is who we thought he was. Another mistaken hire by @AuburnFootball.

Auburn has lost its first 4 SEC games in back-to-back years for the first time ever.
Hugh Freeze and the Tigers just keep inventing new ways to lose.

If Auburn blows this, let’s remember that in a 17-6 game with 1st and goal from the 10, Hugh Freeze called consecutive passing plays and lost 12 yards because Payton Thorne took a sack.
Kicker’s gotta make a kick, but play-caller needs to recognize the situation.

In the fourth quarter of its four SEC games this season, Auburn has been outscored 52-10.
Fifty-two to ten.
With two blown 11-point leads.

At least Hugh Freeze is a great guy and fantastic representative of our beloved university
