Win out or get fired!

Consecutive 3 game losing streaks against Bama & UGA is unprecedented. He should already be gone.

Dating back to 1959

Coaches that lost 3 straight to UGA:

Shug Jordan
1966-1968

Barfield & Dye
1980-1982

Tuberville & Chizik
2006-2009

Gus Malzahn
2014-2016

Coaches that lost 3 straight to Bama:

Shug Jordan
1959-1962
1964-1968

Jordan, Barfield, & Dye
1973-1981

Pat Dye
1990-1992

Gus Malzahn
2014-2016

1. Beat shitty teams like they are shitty teams

2. Don't lose games strictly because of coaching/time management/playcalling

Same thing I tell my kid. Operate with full effort at or near your full potential, and I have no problems.

You start running whirly birds and there will be consequences.

Diversity in the passing game and play calling leading to fairly consistent success on offense.

Better in game management and less panicking.

Just in-game adjustments to what the opposing defense is doing.

I'm STARTING to think Rhett was a better play caller than Gustav. Definitely SMARTER. NEVER did he have that empty, far out look.

1. Go 10-2 at a minimum. No reason to lose games considering how talented the team is. I still look back at Clemson, especially the ball control in the first quarter, and wonder how in the world Auburn lost that game. Same as last year. Sure, their DL is monstrous, but the play calling

2. Quit with the dumb offense tricks.

3. Beat UGA. Seriously, beat UGA.

4. Be competitive or beat Bama

5. Go to a bowl game and beat someone other than a team that just lost their head coach.

I'm not really off the Gus Bus...not sure I was ever on it. However, having an O that performed well against a quality D would be a huge start for me. I can't imagine he'll survive losing to uga and bama again, but he picked a tough year to need a win. Both look to be among the top 5 teams in the country.

I'm permanently off the Gus Bus, face it he's a perennial 8-5 coach.

10-2 at minimum.

It's still very possible.

But not very probable.

Not a damn thing. We are undefeated since I got off of the Bus. I will stay off of the Bus for eternity. Don't ever let anybody tell you I am not a team player.

IF you can not look at our team and our schedule right now and see the positives, you are only looking for the negatives. Sure i get pissed at play calling at times and issues but you are going to have that with EVERY coach ever hired.

The team is improving and we have a lot of potential. No way this team goes 8-5.

Some of you had such high expectations coming in to the season, you cant possibly see straight. And a few of you are just too stupid to know the difference. The team is improving. The offense has a lot of new pieces and we have had injuries. Plus a kid at the controls that had 3 NCAA starts, 2 years ago and zero playing experience since then. It takes a little time


Some of you guys only have one answer for anything. Fire XXX. I have been watching College football longer than some of you have been alive and things never change. Right now, we are in a good position to make a run and be a very good team.

If that makes me bipolar then pass the Lithium

I've been off the bus since 2015. Guess it didn't matter in my case.

All it would take for me is a better passing game and be competitive against UGA and Bama and by that I mean don't lose by more than a score and score a lot of points. If we only put up a touchdown or so against uga or bama or lsu. Fire his arse immediately.

Pretty much this

But really, I just want Auburn to win a high profile game again. If UGA stumbles or LSU continues to struggle, I'll still have big reservations.

Auburn used to thrive in huge moments. Now we haven't won a truly big game since 2013.
