Auburn football's 'A-Day' listed as one of ten most important college football spring games

A-Day will be one of the ten most important spring games to watch.

Auburn's first year under Hugh Freeze has started out promising.

The Tigers have reignited the spark they used to have on the recruiting trail, signed one of the best transfer portal classes in the country, and have begun installing a new system on both sides of the ball.

The A-Day spring game on April 8th should be a fun one to watch, and it's now being recognized as one of the ten most important spring games to keep track of.

Will Blackus of 247 Sports recently wrote about the ten biggest spring games coming up, with the Tigers coming in alongside teams like Ohio State, Alabama, Georgia, and Texas, among others.

"If nothing else, this marks coach Hugh Freeze’s return to the SEC stage," Blakus wrote "The former Ole Miss coach who had his tenure with the Rebels end amid an NCAA investigation into numerous recruiting violations rebuilt his career at Liberty. Now he is right back in the SEC West, trying to revive a program that desperately lost its way under former coach Bryan Harsin. Freeze was relatively vocal about his displeasure at the roster he inherited, thanks to Harsin’s lackluster recruiting efforts, which translated into Freeze hitting the portal hard for 12 prospects. Seven of those play along the offensive or defensive line. Auburn’s spring game is key for those pieces gelling together."
