Auburn Fans: Are you missing Greg Robinson and Tre Mason more than you expected?

The offense is currently ranked 7th in the SEC. I think most expected, including myself, for it to be either first of second in the SEC with A&M. So far, your schedule has been pretty easy, and things only get tougher.

Even though neither is doing well in the pros, both were studs at Auburn. Tre Mason was an automatic 5 yards and Greg Robinson was a beast. What say you?

Damn. I didn't realize it was that bad. But I think Malzahn is a genius, so he will figure it out.

I believe Kozan and Proshe are the ones we have replaced with lesser talents.

I would say:

1. Kozan
2. Mason
3. Robinson

Really not concerned with it yet. Honestly, I think most of our fans are happy to see some decent defense. It's been a while since we had any......

We are averaging 480 yards still. Had an off game and everyone is overreacting.

Bye week + a tough game on the road against Bill Snyder. Pump the brakes on the overreactions.

I'm not sure if we need to be concerned yet. We have 4 guys at new spots, so some development was expected. But it needs to hurry up. Things get tougher in a hurry, and don't let up until the end of November.

Too soon to tell. At this time last season, neither Mason nor Robinson were dominant and we were coming off a game where we didn't run the ball very well.

I think our offense, including the run game, will be fine.

Losing Kozan really hurts. Caused us to move RG Chad Slade to LG (he is our worst starter, too slow to play in the sec) , move RT Avery Young to EG, and bring Patrick Miller off the bench to RT. Miller started in 2012 and some in 2013. Threw our line into disarray.

I say sorry our schedule isn't as shitty as bammers and several other teams. The worst team we have played so far is San Jose State and they were fairly competitive with Minnesota yesterday

Auburn is still an offensive machine until some proves them otherwise

Meh, AU is 3-0 and our defense is looking stronger than last year. KST was a tough arse match up and feel we will only improve from there. Our OL can improve for sure and I would like to see Malzahn/Lashlee be less stubborn in their play calling at times. I think this team is trying to find their identity of what they will be dominant at. We have a lot of weapons and it's time to figure it out.

Obviously the weeks following LAMO will really show us how good Auburn is this year. I would love to have Kozan back and a bona fide FB in the Prosch mold. Let's play the games and see.

Yeah, but it was pretty much a fact that you guys were a three loss team that got lucky last year. It was presumed that you would improve in order to contend for a conference championship this year.
