I'd argue strongly against it being AU. Not because I think Gus is awesome, but because I think Gus is unproven.
The response from most AU fans upon Gus' hiring was "meh, could be worse I guess". I don't know any Auburn fan who thinks we hit some kind of homerun with that hire.
We're hopeful Gus can get AU competitive again, but that's about it.
Whereas Arky fans seem to talk like they got an upgrade from Petrino.

What you did there, I think I see it. If you didn't mean to do that you should be tested for some underlying genius.

Bama fan starts troll thread on AU. When the first 4 posts don't go his way, comes back in to keep troll going.

Welp, this guy is obviously from the future. Time to pack it up guys, Bielema will apparently suck.

He's just an awful fit in the SEC - he was perfect in the big 10 though.

I'd rather have Bielema over Petrino
And that's not the homer in me speaking. Petrino was never, and I mean never, going to have a good defense or dominating O-line, which is something that Bielema brings

Tennessee.... but that is strictly based on my hatred of Tennessee.

Petrino loves his skill players and depends a whole lot on QBs. It works great for him for a while (of course having a 5 Star QB or a field full of NFL WRs helps) since he's a freaking offensive genius and one of the best playcallers in the country but any program he's been in for a while is poised to fail as soon as he leaves. He is the main reason they're good and outside of WRs, TEs and QBs there isn't much "coaching up" going on. He's the world's best offensive coordinator in a head coach's shoes. It can work and look great for a time but it's not the way to build a program.
Bielema on the other hand set Wisconsin up for long term success with adequate depth across the board, a good strength program and a fundamentally strong defense. Gary Andersen has a lot to work with there. I'm not saying Bielema's the savior of our program but his coaching style is better for the long term than Petrino's.
And I'm hoping for 6 wins this year but 5 is probably more realistic.
