Proud of our guys tonight. We’ve got the right coach.

We don’t have any SEC caliber receivers who can stretch the field. We don’t have an SEC caliber OL but we hung in there and slugged it out. I’m proud of our tram. We’re gonna beat somebody, maybe a few teams, that were not supposed to beat. We need to recruit recruit recruit.

Auburn looks like it is far better coached.

Coaches make mistakes. So do players.

It’s what happens next that matters and Gus never adjusted. This staff I bet will.

Just not sold on Bobo and Mason after tonight. Neither had game plans that made any sense

This. And we need to start with a QB. I don't know much about Davis, but I know he's short. I want a 6'3+ guy. Finley has the size, but apparently not the accuracy.

Go out and get a true pocket passing QB, Harsin. Please. He did it at Boise. Need it at AU.

I’ve never been sold on Bobo or most of the staff but I was sold on Mason. I damn sure ain’t now, that was a piss poor performance from the defense.

We are a work in progress. We knew this. The world knew this. I think we opened as a touchdown underdog for this game.

Bo is still Bo. The play calling was suspect at times. Our WRs dropped open balls. And our secondary is very concerning.

We have a lot of work to do.

In being prepared to play in a hostile environment I agree, but our coaches made a lot of mistakes tonight before and all during the game.

Agreed. Mason I really liked. I like his defense at vandy. Maybe I just didn’t watch enough of them. His secondary philosophy is garbage.

What’s frustrating is we have the DBs to play man coverage on those guys, makes no sense to me letting them pick you apart.

Check out Holden Geriner. I think he can be a good one but is going to need a year or two to develop. What we have now is just a bridge.

Yea, you can't let Clifford complete 90% of his passes. That is unacceptable.

Yep. Zone has lots of benefits. When you have tv athletes though, play man

I concur. Bobo is who I thought he was. Mason was disappointing but maybe he’s covering for that weak line.

I’ll agree if I hear Harsin has taken the play calling away from Bobo on Monday, and he tells Mason to grow a set of balls and quit running that prevent bullshite type defense

You can’t expect DBs to play man for 10 seconds. A lot can go wrong then.

If this were a Gus coached team the final would've been either 28-6 or 28-10. I'm happy it wasn't that today. Bo did look better. I expect improvements.

Where is Al Borges? He knew how to use two stud RBs.

I was always worried about Bobo, I remember him calling plays against us.

Mason’s zone D sucks, either because our players don’t fully get it or it’s a bad design.

One anonymous SEC coach said "Mason schemes you to death." So I think his defense takes some time to learn would be my guess.
