Miles Kelly came to Auburn to 'play with better players.' Here's how it's paying off Kelly is shooting 49% from 3 this season, ranking third in the SEC

Through nine games this season, Miles Kelly's 3-point shooting numbers are better than they ever have been in his career.

What's been the key to that efficiency? Look no further than why Kelly chose Auburn in the first place

How Jay Crawford's ultra-competitive football upbringing molded him into a freshman standout Crawford has quickly adapted to college football as a freshman, but to those around him, that's no surprise

FEATURE | Few players have emerged on Auburn's defense quite like freshman CB Jay Crawford has this season

But what made him so adaptable to life in the SEC? Growing up in Atlanta's ultra-competitive youth football scene, there was no other option www.al.com/auburnfootba...

When asked about Auburn playing other QBs in the second half, Freeze said "I would love for that to happen."

Says he doesn't want to get ahead of himself, but if Auburn has a couple good possessions to start the second half, he'd like to see other guys get snaps
