Typical Aubie. One Aub said that your offense couldn't be stopped. I mentioned LSU stopping it. Now we're back to third grade namecalling.

Gus doesn't have a qb who always shits in big games.

You guys averaged 4.1 ypc and threw 0 TD's and 2 int's. Just because Auburn fans know that everyone switched channels at half time doesn't mean you can pretend like that was a close game by bringing up "total yard" stats.

.....and like I said, LSU didn't stop it. Auburn played horribly on the road, with a young team in certain key positions, but played much better in the second half. You wanted to make the excuse that LSU "took their foot off the gas"...........which is total bullshite. Their starting QB played all game. Their starting WR's played all game. Hill played all game and got 100 of his 184 yards on two carries. Auburn just played better the second half.....but you continue to make excuses why Auburn's O numbers were basically identical to LSU's.

Analogy was in reference to game winning drives in the fourth quarter.

It's hard to maintain a killer instinct when you're up 21-0 and the other team has had 105 yards of total offense.

Ahh the good old Auburn fountain of youth. How many years has this been an excuse?

Your defense did well. Congrats. But this is about LSU beating your offense into submission the first half and then sleepwalking the second half. I don't care how many meaningless yards you had. Your offense got whipped. Won't be the last time it happens.

He probably wasn't that envious of a guy coming off a 0-12 season (17-40 as a HC) with no titles that joined a school as a coordinator that was considering him as the next head coach.

What you keep blabbering about? Your offense went scoreless the first two quarters and then got points when LSU starters were thinking about which coed they were going to celebrate with that night.

Your messiah of a D mind hasn't come close to figuring it out. That is obvious. 300 yards rushing? Is that what it was?

quote:I don't know. Its possible Gus is smarter than their offensive coaches. But again his offense is more about execution than figuring it out. Its more reliant on defensive players making the right decision than their coach. NFL players are a lot smarter than college players and are less likely to make the wrong decision when the pressure is on them.
Do you think that Gus is above what happened to the Broncos coaching staff?
Gus was successful last year because no matter the defense he would create a mismatch in numbers with the scheme, force the other team's players to make decisions faster than usual and then rely on them to make the wrong decision and/or his players to make the play. Thats a lot to overcome for a defense. The coach has to pick the right play, the defensive players have to make the right decisions quickly, and then make the play on the offensive guys.
Thats alot different than just the coaches playing chess with players on the field using different plays.

Solid deflection. Are you ready to admit that your offense is stoppable because a team has stopped it?
And for the record it's not about the X's and O's on our defense, but the jimmies and joes. This year's jimmies and joes on the dline are going to give opposing quarterbacks nightmares. This year we also have a lot more options at corner.
Where are my manners? I should be thanking you for offering Rashaan Evans as a Star. Without him we wouldn't have a key piece in stopping your offense. Thanks, Auburn

I heard that exact same thing last year. I heard how a bama D was giving up less than 100 yards rushing a game. I heard that a one dimensional O had zero chance against that vaunted D.........until Auburn gashed you for 3 bills on the ground and then that vaunted D wasn't so vaunting.
To answer your question......if holding Auburn to 21 first downs, 439 yards O, and holding the running game to 4.1 ypc is stopping it.......then yeah, it can be stopped.

Thats not called stopping an offense. But by all means keep trying to convince everyone how great LSU is and could do something Bama couldn't.

God love garbage time. Always makes the box score look better than what actually happened.
I agree that Gus's offenses are hard to predict. Remember the 2011 version of Gus's offense? Talk about an unstoppable force. That offense could impose its will on anyone. I was surprised we kept it close playing against the great Malzahn's offense. Could you remind me of that score?

The one where we didn't have a QB? It was bad. Tell me about when Chris Todd was our QB. What was that score and for how long of the game did Auburn lead the future NC's? (that was a 7-5 Auburn team, btw....again with Chris Todd as our QB)
What about in 2010? How did bama go from completely shutting down Auburn in the first half to handing Cam the Heisman in the second half? I guess bama just "took their foot off the gas", huh?

You didn't have a qb? That's unfortunate that a minor detail like having a quarterback would get past Gus's watchful eye.
Oh is this the part where you say Bama can't beat a good Auburn team which is in essence admitting that Auburn can't consistently field a good team? This is my favorite argument.
I'm going to bed. Glad that there are rational Auburn fans who believe that their coach is human

It's pretty dumb to ignore 09 and 10 and only focus on 11.

He also ignored 2013. Those years just didn't fit his agenda.

300+ yards? Impressive. 21 points? Not amazing. It's like in 2012 when all the LSU fans talked about Mett takin us to the woodshed to the tune of 17 points.
Those yards between the 20s tho...
