Baylor’s New Defensive Coordinator had the entire summer to dissect the tendencies of the Golesh Offense. The defensive line stunts and shifts outsmarted the offensive coaches. We weren’t polished enough to counter…..
This all boiled to a massive handicap for Baylor in the first quarter. Lagway lost half of his personal offensive threat. That’s the difference. A one legged Lagway…..caused Baylor’s demise.
It’s amazing the amount of damage done starting with Gus. Three failed coaches started a trend. Golesh is right, the first order of business was to change the culture and work ethic. Kids and Coaches know what’s needed. It’s too bad the fan base is not that intelligent.
The funeral is over.
Celebrate the win, Saturday is done.
Go back to work. Long season ahead……GROW each week. We have to work harder, coaches and players alike.
A few people bought into the local media hype. Time to turn them off.
I started this journey with the two best examples possible. A team that turned this from 0-10 base. And produced National Champions in less than six years. Shug and my Grandfather were one of a kind influences.

We won.
Next game.
I assume every player will be evaluated on tape, and either they will get better or somebody else gets a chance.

3-3-5 defense is also just a giant pain in the arse to play against when you don’t do it often. It’s like playing against the Syracuse zone D in basketball. Things just always look weird when it is lined up. We should have been more ready for it, but their D was massively improved from last year. Their new coordinator is a good one.

Cbssportscfb's Instagram showed we had 12 men on the field before Baylor called time out and then threw the ball that Eric Winters tackled. We got extra lucky
That part wasn’t “lucky”. Baylor subbed so that gave Auburn a chance to sub. In the Instagram picture you saw, the ref is still standing over the ball. Auburn has the chance to sub. Baylor had to call timeout or they would have had a delay of game after our sub.

Yep. CBS twitter was very dumb. Baylor sub went in late, so we sent ours in as late as possible with like 6 seconds left in the play clock, forcing them to call a timeout. It was a great job by our guys.

The one glaring contributing factor…..Lagway handicapped early.
That disrupted their game plan early. One legged QB imprisoned to standing in the pocket took weapons off the table for Baylor
It was funny. Friday was my last infusion treatment cancer. Rang the Bell!
I’m in Georgia and had a new Auburn Fan in the treatment area. Leaving, I her another War Eagle, then unknowingly predicted the win.
“Remember, to win requires one point more than your opponent.”
Rang that bell loud enough for the office to know!

I’m on the opposite opinion. I thought and felt pretty confident that a 2-pt try was in the cards if they scored and a good call for them.
Their Qb was in rough shape. Their kicker is questionable. While we didn’t look great, we got better on both sides of the ball throughout the game. I’d also suggest that they got worse. Maybe marginally but the trending is there.
It took a bad throw and a perfect tackle to keep him from crossing the line.

Was not aware of that until post-game (was at the game). With that in play, makes sense to get your QB off the field, win or lose, after one more play.

What happens in the fake?
Run or pass has one alternative
Drop kick.

I mean yall do realize that had lagway thrown the ball to the outside the dude who caught its momentum would have taken him in. However because he had to turn back around to catch the ball, Winters was able to stop him.
It was the correct play call it was a bad throw.
That said that’s the kind of stuff we give up last year.

Not sure if the broadcast really showed this but Baylor did not bring many players. Probably half as many as we had. Aranda mention he thought extending the game favored Auburn. Lack of depth and wanting to shorten the game for his injured QB played big roles in the decision I sure. Good call on his part. His team was in the position to win. Poor execution.

Their FG kicker must be a total liability. In OT if you can’t confidently make a 35-40 yard FG you’ll lose majority of the time.

I’m sure he didn’t want to have to keep Lagway out there longer on the bum leg. I’m sure that was a big part in his decision.

You didnt see him hobbling around in the first half?
It was a huge part of the game.

It was the right call and I am thrilled it didn't succeed.

Knowing the QB was not mobile, but has a good arm, it was alarming to see Durkin still fooling around with a thee man rush rather than pressure.
FSU lost to SMU doing a 3 man rush last night in a game tied 24 to 24. I know it works sometimes, but giving a QB all day to play pitch and catch doesn't make sense.

Sorry, buddy but you need to GTFO with this shite. You were defending Freeze and calling the fanbase dumbasses. You have no standing on this issue. Probably the same on Harsin.
But its the same folks here that just go nuts if you get critical of Auburn. We love Auburn, but because we don't wear the sunshine happy orange and blue glasses some of you do, that means we don't know football. Take that shite somewhere else. I heard it during the Harsin disaster and I heard it during the Freeze disaster and I'm sick of it.
WE WERE RIGHT, YOU WERE WRONG. Maybe consider that before you talk shite about us.
