I saw what i saw. I saw a team sliding in bounds, methodically twisting a knife in our stomach, and tormenting us by playing keep away.


That team out fundamentaled and out-physicaled (this is now a word) more than the Minnesota team that year.

I will take an over all 8-4 program if we are like our history has been. An undefeated season once a decade. A couple chances to win a MNC a decade. And with the new playoff a goal would be to go each year but I would take 4 trips every 12 years. So once every 3 year cycle.

Work from there and if things fall into place then go on a historic run. So we will see how it turns out.

This every game must be won, every play be played perfect, every year is a championship mentality is a miserable experience. Only Bama has had that opportunity for in the grand scheme short periods of time. About 6-8 years under bear and about 12 years under Saban. Do I want that of course but I love Auburn for being Auburn not because what I want them to become

Maybe we can all just recognize and hope that the coaches recognize that that drubbing wasn’t solely because of the roster. It was because the team and coaching staff weren’t ready for the game. It was noticeable from the first drive on. A little self awareness may go a long way. It doesn’t help to blame everyone else for your failure. So his “punishment” is recognizing his own failure and not letting it happen again.

Thank You! The people here think they can put a timeframe on what is acceptable and what is not acceptable when they dont even know the exact limitations of our roster.

Stop believing the press. The same press saying all week that Auburn was back .....

The press will make you look stupid

By 'press', are you talking about the Vegas odds?


I saw Auburn this year. Played a couple of better opponents tough, beat up on some lesser ones. No one expected this who wasn't from New Mexico. Hats off to them and all, but damn, AU simply didn't show up. Why it happens, I'll never understand.

I'm like you guys. I didn't think from the jump we would be a 9-10 win team but I thought they would fight like hell to win. If we had played vandy yesterday like they played nmsu they would have kicked our arse. It was the total lack of effort that was worrisome. How do you go from skull dragging Arkansas to getting pounded by new Mexico state? Coaches have got to figure that out. If they play bama like they did yesterday it will be a 50 point game quick.

Tater Tot & Gus both had storybook seasons in their 1st years.

---

Yes and in 1993 Tot had Pat Dye's recruits with two stud RBs (Bostic and Davis) and a senior QB Stan White and Sanders at WR to work with. We also almost lost to Ole Ms and Vandy. Many of us remember when we were stuck with Demontray Carter as RB. The best Tot could recruit. His recruiting took a nose dive cause he could not compete with his diddy and the old ball coach. He ran us into the ground. And left in the middle of the season leaving Brother Oliver as interim HC.

Gus had a new approach that took others like Jeremy Pruitt a while to figure out and then Gus got lazy to change and adjust.

with an excellent analogy on last nights game.

Enjoy the jeers, kinda funny

Is that because they aren't meddling in the offense? I think that may be our issues on the offensive side. Montgomery and freeze seem to be butting heads on scheme, personnel, etc.

---

It does Auburn no good to have Montgomery near Auburn, Alabama if the two are not on the same page. Freeze is the boss and Montgomery is the subordinate. The whole grand purpose for having Freeze was his offense. Montgomery can take a hike. It is ideal for your HC to be able to call at least one side of the ball. Freeze should be able to call offense, just like Smart should be able to call the defense if he needs to. That works for program continuity purposes as Freeze and Smart should only have to worry about assistant coaches leaving on the opposite side of the ball, not both sides of the ball. For all intents and purposes, the coaches working alongside Freeze and Smart within their acclaimed side of the ball should be loyal extensions willing to carry out how Freeze and Smart has done things for years.

Us having to deal with a fricking HC that is suddenly wanting to abandon the offense upon arrival is not great. Freeze should have come to lock down the offense and to kick all the other actors out. This is that Malzahn 2.0 bullshite showing up in realtime.

I love how after years of posting and being right on 98% of the shite I post, you have ONE thing to bring up repeatedly. Get some new material, boss.

Malik Willis was still a 3rd round pick, so the fact that you think this is some catastrophic fail is hilarious. You've repeated this about a dozen times now. Got anything new Einstein? Or is your bird brain that small?

Malik Willis was a bum and I said it then. You let your Bo Nix hate warp your stupid brain. I called you out then and ill call you out when he wins the Heisman. I got a little present for you idiots.

I was actually nice to you tards and didn't bother to bump up the DOZENS upon DOZENS of posts I made about what has going on with Harsin while you clowns were eating up the shite about how he was some big alpha and the meanie boosters were lying to get him out of town.

Nobody dumped on that fraud more than me. Stop trying to steal my shine.

When you parrot anti-nix hate year after you dont get to be right 98% of the time. You also tried to say our WRs were going to be much improved from last year and that they would be a strength. You called Jyaire Shorter a a grown arse man and I havent even seen that motherfricker on the field. You are right as much as a broken clock and I am your daddy.
