I saw it. Didn't want to. No way close from the first angle, but plain as day from the reverse shot.

Like the gift we got last year vs Arky ( again, special teams faux pas )

It's who we've become, and it sucks.

In some ways, people have gotten what they asked for on offense. Bobo is the anti-Gus. Gus was all about mastering 10-12 plays and it was mind numbing to watch us stubbornly play such predictable football over the past few years. But he knew what he wanted to do, always.

Bobo has a huge playbook with variety of formations but zero offensive identity.

It’s just a head scratcher that we can look good and put up points in first half but 2nd half we get so bogged down and struggle to score.


Sounds like Gustav

All three of those teams are a good measure better than they were last year.

It will be healthier for you now to admit Gus was a better coach than Harsin, but if you want to hang on I don't have a problem enabling you.

***I'd like to qualify this comment in that I wanted Gus gone, was cautiously optimistic about the Harsin hire until I began to watch systemically poor leadership decisions that made me question him as a leader of men.

It’s ok to admit you’re a legit retard. You must have forgotten spiking the ball backwards or that the ball touched our return man vs ole miss. Were you born in 97? This makes sense

The questionable leadership was obvious long before the vaccine issue. His unwillingness to speak his mind about vaccines (even though I disagree) was another example of his poor leadership skills.

Hiring two older coordinators was the first issue for a possible young coach supposed to be an up and coming guy.

Perception is reality, even when it is fantasy. Enjoy your reality.

I don’t see how you can make the argument at this point that Harsin is better than Gus.

Yep good luck explaining that spike backwards and kickoff turnover that definitely would have been a win this year

Thankfully he also beats Penn State, uga, and A&M...fantasy is a wonderful coping mechanism.

Face it you backed a bad horse because he spoke in a way you wanted a coach to speak but pep talks don't win football games in the modern era. We need a leader of men and the corporation that is Auburn Football.

So just because he lost last year then he for sure loses this year? Get out of your feelings. Gus had gotten mediocre and Harsin has been mediocre. Gus had atleast won something.
