To think this year's edition of Auburn is my favorite since 2010?
- We have an awesome returning QB
- Very Talented Backfield(I mean we don't worry much about backs at auburn)
- Awesome WR groupings
- OL is a question mark but Center is the only position I'm overly concerned about
- Probably the best DL in the country
- return most if not all LBs
- very experienced DBs
- Special teams will be better than recent years with Carlson and sipposs.
-Staff improved with additions of woodson and grimes teaching.
-Both returning coordinators for the first time since idk when.

We are probably upgrading on talent from last year, but losing experience. Could be weird.

Too much sunshine in here for me

I am cautiously optimistic for this year. Gus needs to show me he can win a big game away from Jordan-Hare. Team has talent to win the SEC but that schedule is brutal. Most of all I want another 10 win season. Obviously winning a title is the goal but get me a 10 win year & I would call it a major success

I would say 2014 if you are talking expectations going into the season.
Also, last year going in, I thought we were legit national champion contenders.
Both years I bet on us to win the national championship. Dont remember the 2014 odds, last year was 20-1.
I think this years team may be more talented overall than either the 2014 team or last years, but we are light on experience and are going to need a few games for our Oline and backs to get game experience with each other. And playing UGA and bama on the road makes me think a title run is going to be tougher this year than last year or 2014, the two years since 2010 I felt best about to start the season.

Their first four are ridiculous. All will be first round picks which is insane to think about.

I want to believe.
My body just is not ready yet. Not feeling comfy about a few of our positions.
Plus our tough schedule

I just feel like this could turn out to be a very consistent, solid, top 10ish team that still loses 3 games.

Did college football do away with the offensive line position? No? Then I can’t possibly have hope until I see something better here.

i like our 2 deep better than their 2 deep but their starters are definitely better.

our OL wasnt as bad as the first 2 games showed. We took 15 sacks in the 1st 2 games but took 14 sacks for the rest of the season. So after the first 2 games we only avg. like less than 1 sack per game. We took 5 sacks vs UCF.
Our OLine wont be terrible imo.

don’t get too negative Lanier, it’d be too dark here without your sunbeams of positivity

I have learned not to have any expectations. My heart has been broken too many times.
I do think we are very talented.
I think our D is just as talented, if not more, than last year.
I do believe Stidham will be improved and more comfortable in the O.
The success of our O depends on the OL. I have many questions about that bunch.

Not negative. Just pessimistic maybe. Lol
I think we will be fine.

Not crazy, I feel like we are in a good position this year. Like you I am most worried about the OL, if they can give Stidham enough time to read the field - he has the accuracy and ability to make great plays.
Then we have Cam Martin who I am excited to see this year. One fast kid who I believe will be a crucial part of our offense.
The defense? We are stacked. I'm ready to see how well they stop Washington
