AUBURN, Alabama – Auburn coach Gene Chizik says he and his coaching staff are spending the off week evaluating their team rather than looking ahead to the rest of the schedule.

Auburn's off week comes after a 1-3 start.

"Physically, where we're at a point where I think it's arriving at a good time," Chizik said during the SEC teleconference Wednesday. "We've got a lot of work to do. We've taken this week to go back and really evaluate where we are with everything with our football team. In that regard, it's been good timing."
