Mandatory Credit: Dale Zanine-Imagn Images Auburn coach Hugh Freeze is expected to be on the sidelines Saturday night in Lexington, Ky., when his team faces Kentucky.
Freeze, 55, remained in Auburn Friday when his Tigers departed for Lexington because of an illness. ESPN reported that he took a different flight to the game because of a bout of what is believed to be food poisoning.
Auburn (2-5, 0-4 Southeastern Conference) has lost four conference games in a row -- three of them to ranked opponents. Freeze's team was up 17-6 before losing to No. 19 Missouri 21-17 last Saturday.
The Wildcats are 3-4 (1-4 SEC) on the season and with Auburn, make up two of the bottom three schools in the conference standings.
