New faces on the offensive line: a guy who was a freshman all American in 2013 and then missed all last year with injury

A guy who was a top 100 recruit in 2013, played for Ole Miss as a true freshman the same year, and then had to sit out last year after transferring to Auburn

A guy who was the 3rd best offensive guard on the 247 composite for the 2014 class. His high school coach also posted a video on YouTube showing him bench pressing over 500 pounds 3 times while he was still in high school

Well now I'm convinced, AU is playoff bound.

Georgia won't beat Auburn next year, and I will make a ban bet on that as long as Auburn stays relatively healthy.

As much as mutts talk about owning Auburn, you have still lost 2 of the last 3 games in Jordan Hare. The 2010 game was a massacre and the 2013 was a massacre as well for the majority of the game. The luckiest play of the 2013 game was Aaron Murray being given credit for a touchdown he did not score

That will be one of the biggest reasons.

Another reason.....Miss St., Ole Miss, UGA and bama at home. UK out of the East and going to a down LSU.

Do you say this every offseason? Genuinely asking.

richt has also won there 4 times, and the only reason he has 1 more loss there than he does is becauuse of the screwed up scheduling.

One of your best teams in school history was in a battle early in the 4th quarter against a team that finished with a losing record

2013 was a massacre as well for the majority of the game


Oh we get to pick and choose which parts of games we like to count? Well in that case we massacred you in the 4th quarter!

Kind of like how your fanbase was claiming y'all would be back in the title game last season and yet y'all finished with the same record as that "down" LSU.

LOL

Remind me of the score. It took until half way through the fourth quarter for LSU to convert a third down conversion...........or some ridiculous shite like that.

ETA That was against Ellis Johnson.

I don't remember ever picking Auburn to win last year, and I know for a fact I picked Georgia to win the week before the game.

Georgia fans trying to shite on a thread about Auburn not making the playoff is beyond laughable when their own team not making it is as sure as the sun rising in the sky every morning

It was bad, reminded me of the 2013 beatdown. What was the excuse for that game? Gimmicks weren't all ironed out yet? Oh wait no it was the weather.

I guess we're your Super Bowl and you define your season on the LSU game.

Just keep deflecting what I posted.

we don't play next week, do we? I asked if you predicted AU would beat UGA every offseason, because that seems typical of something you'd do. And more often than not under richt, that prediction would be incorrect.

If you read my first post in the thread, I was saying how odd it seemed that the article from the OP basically points out a bunch of holes and weaknesses, then says they're a playoff contender. I never said they can't make the playoff, my beef was with the writing of the article.

quote:

we've made the playoff as many times as AU has..

Auburn actually scored with LSU for three and a half quarters in that "beatdown". It was two early turnovers, one on the doorstep of the goal line, that did Auburn in in that game. I know, I know, LSU took their foot off of the gas and allowed Auburn to produce 437 yards of total O that day.

Auburn had a brutal schedule last year. I think pretty much everybody, national media included, thought Auburn would be very good, but the schedule would be the death knell. Nobody saw the D imploding like it did. The O will be just as potent as it has been since Gus got to Auburn. The D has to improve with Muschamp running it.

So schedule and fans overexpectations are to blame?

Is it that hard to admit that auburn simply wasn't a good football team last year?

Incorrect.

They didn't convert a 3rd down all game.

we won 10 games and beat the dogshit out of your team. You lost 5 games including 4 of the last 5. So no, I wouldn't say like UGA.

I don't know if we were or weren't. And missouri won the east (a team we beat by 5 touchdowns btw). What does that have to do with anything? Remind me who won the west...see how dumb that sounds?

Meh, UGA underperformed just a little better than Auburn. Congrats I guess?

East was wide open and your team richted again.
