At this point, everyone knows that is not on him but on the coach that keeps him in to keep making the same damn mistakes.


I think the Definition of Insanity has been referenced in this forum about 1000 times this season.

I'll be first in line calling out people that think he should be our head coach, but Durkin is a top notch DC. Does he have flaws, sure (his tendency to rush 3 during weird moments and give up first downs drives me crazy at times). But we were 23rd in the country in points given up per game coming into the game, and we were 28th last year. That's an excellent defense.

Anyone who knows remotely anything about football agrees with this take

If we lose this game you may be right. If the defensive effort slips it could get ugly versus Vandy and Bama.

I remember when Auburn fans were pissed not being top 10. I guess our fans have gotten ok with mediocrity.

There’s no way we score more than 20 pts right?

11 obviously isn't all that coachable. Keeps making same mistakes repeatedly


My biggest complaint. it shouldn’t take this long season to put your back up in.

No, we won’t hit 20

Hell, we won’t score another TD

Why does Hugh lose ALL his marbles once we get to 10-13 pts?

Me walking up to Scarlett Johansson and telling her to leave her husband, stop acting, and becoming my homegrown slut is more likely to happen than us scoring more than 20.

Question for the board. Obviously any new coach would bring in their own staff, but are there any coaches from this staff that you wouldn't mind coming back? I'd be ok If Marcus Davis, VKW and Roc, but the rest I wouldn't miss. Maybe Crime, but he seems to always find his way back anyway.

I am afraid at this point cleaning house might be the best option. We need a culture change

We've been in the top ten of scoring defense one time since Tubs left, it's not exactly like it's been a regular thing the past 20 years.

We'd all love to be back at that point, but we need a functional offense to maintain a top 10 scoring defense as well.

That is true. Maybe a coach that isn’t allergic to good QBs and running the football would help.

Man, our special teams sucks overall, but Pleasant is such a good return guy.
