No it won't.

My disagreement is with so many anointing Auburn as back to true top dog status. They have come back to be part of the circle, but last season was far from dominating.

The record setting, fast paced Gimmick Spread Offense.

Unlike pro style offenses, the Gimmick is only used by Auburn and is only good for one year or so. After the Gimmick is figured out, the coach has to leave for a year so that SEC defensive coordinators forget and throw away their tapes. When the Gimmick comes back, everyone is surprised even though he's running the same plays. More records are set.

This is genius.

Gus already had the players on campus he needed, as compared to the shite show chizik tried to run with Gus' personnel.

They did have a giant stroke of luck, saying that they will be a tough game next year for anyone.

Who are these people. Yea auburn could and might well be a favorite to win the west, but does anyone have them running away with it?

So you disagree that auburn could win the west next year?

Ok, so you do agree that they could win the west next year, but you disagree with the narative you've created that no one is championing?

Yea it will be a long offseason if the projection from other fanbases is needed to be explained by fans of said team.

I have a question, couldn't the same be said of LSU's offense now that Cam will be coming into his second year? I mean defenses will figure out what he is doing won't they? I am sure Freeze ran the same offense last season as he did the prior yet they still beat LSU. Bama ran the same offense they did the prior and LSU got smoked.

Just questions is all.

Those 500 yards of offense we gained were a gimmick

I forgot about Ole Miss. They also used a version of the Gimmick.

Freeze needs to leave for a year then come back. I guarantee OM will win at least 10 games.

Ole Miss was Auburn's only legit win. It was gimmick vs gimmick...and gimmick won.

Exactly, which makes no sense because it is the same offense you all used the year before. Wondering why LSU didn't figure it out?

There is so much fail in this thread, from both sides.

True. True. Could have easily gotten boat raced in that game too. Once FSU settled down and "figured it out" they beat the brakes off of AU 31-10. Had FSU had the right focus early, that game could have been like LSU vs OSU or UF vs OSU.
