I can’t remember that last time we couldn’t completely blame a loss on bad coaching

Seems like that was the norm with Gus Malzahn over the last several years. Despite the blowout today, I still fairly good about our future. I like Harsin and what he brings to our program

I thought it was a very well coached game too. Coaches consistently put guys in a position to succeed and they consistently failed.

Harsin is going to take us places I believe, he just has to remove the Gus funk.

If his receivers could catch we would have a game on our hands

Not completely, but Bobo being allergic to running the ball in the redzone continues to be a problem.

you think we could run vs that front. We scored in the red zone if we could catch balls and they call PI

Seems strange after losing by 24 but I'm more impressed with Harsin today than at any point since his hiring.

And I don’t think he needs to match talent with UGA and bama to beat them, but he’s definitely gotta get closer which goes beyond just recruiting rankings. It’s getting guys that fit what he’s trying to do both from a philosophical and scheme standpoint, and also finding diamonds in the rough like Hunter.

I didn’t agree with wasting plays on screens and the 3rd and 9 draw to Tank was absolutely terrible.

Looked like they had already decided they were going for it on fourth so we’re just getting any yardage they could.

Rather take my chances bringing in extra blockers and running than trying to rely on the WRs and Nix making a good pass. Just me I guess.

Yep. He did similarly in the Penn State game.

Auburn desperately needs some high caliber receivers.

Our receivers have to be hit in the facemask to catch the ball. And they drop them sometimes too

It actually goes back to bad coaching. We are still in the shadows of the Gus Bus that was running out of gas at the end.

Let's see what two years brings our way before the nose pickers shout enough to make the seat hot. I look to see BoBo and Mason on their way down the road before long a few years perhaps.

The Tank run on 3rd and nine should have a draw at a minimum ....However, I liked the odds of Nix hitting one more first down in that situation, not the "Give Up"

Lot of repair work yet to be done with the trash left on aisle three by Gus and his gang.

I’d settle for some that could simply catch the ball.
