re: Why is everyone so down on Auburn?

I haven't notice people are particularly negative on AU. A lot of people thought we would struggle and our optimists topped out at like 8-4/9-3. Many thought it'd be a lot worse.

Obviously the offense has been puzzling. But from what I've seen this team hasn't quit and has the talent to hang in most games, so it isn't really like 2012. More like the mediocrity we've seen recently, but hopefully building to something a little better.

There is a lot of season to play, but if Auburn can get to 8-4, I think that would probably exceed what most non-AU posters expected.
