re: Auburn and other teams fans...last nite on Inside Razorback Football

Did you catch these Petrino comments.

Auburn's "little bunch huddle" that they like to do from time to time and the Hogs stuffed it.

When KF threw his second interception Petrino noted the formation and the area and player where the QB usually throws out of that formation. On that play Petrino also noted that Auburn's QB "read defenses" very little.

I know some Tiger Fans will be pissed when they read this but it's true. Gus doesn't teach his QBs to read defenses and that is why they call all the audibles from the sidelines.

Auburn Fans are witnessing two things.

1. Without the best college player, arguably in the history of college football, Gus' offense is, well, high school looking based on smoke and mirrors and a “how can we fool them” philosophy.

2. The more SEC defensive coordinators see Gus' smoke and mirrors offense the easier it is to stop because it’s nothing more than a little trick play here, a little smoke and mirror there. It isn’t based on sound football principles and execution but rather “how can we trick them”, nothing more.

And you Paper Tigers don’t use youth as an excuse. Your coaching staff has had plenty of time to build depth especially since auburn has had all these “great” recruiting classes since Chizik arrived. Get used to what you are seeing because it will be the norm and I only hope Auburn promotes Gus to the Head Coach in waiting. You do that and you may never win another SEC game again except against the likes of State, Ole Miss and Vandy.
