Bama reeling after last week. No need to give them bulletin board material.

Folks will say that stuff is overblown, but these young guys get pumped up over this stuff.

Tre Mason gave them Iron Bowl material before the 2013 game and Kevin Scarbinsky scolded him in an article for poking the bear. And the rest is history.


That motivation they get lasts maybe a play. What is more important is we are confident enough in Tuscaloosa. I'll allow it.

I mean I usually don’t like it.

But we also have a confidence issue that we’re trying to turnaround. Sometimes you need a cocky guy in everyone else’s ear saying we’re doing this.

As for me personally, I’ll continue my tradition of having zero confidence in Auburn until the game is over. We went up 21-0 on A&M and everyone was laughing at me because I’m saying “well this loss is going to be painful”

Y'all are dumb if you think this matters. I'm actually glad the player has this mentality

The confidence I’m fine with. Throwing unnecessary shade at a single player who is clearly a very good player is just dumb. Could have gotten the same message across and spoken more generally.

I think him and Williams are pretty good friends so probably some of that on it as well, but still, unnecessary.

I assume they asked about Williams.

You can’t go from cocky to “yeah this guys good and will get his”

Sure, but there is also ground in between not being cocky and backtracking and saying he sucks.

Blocking and tackling are greater than talk.

Also, let’s not act like our guys didn’t take Elko’s Freudian slip personally. Yes, when you get into the middle of the game, this stuff doesn’t matter, but it does during the week. Unnecessary bulletin board material is unnecessary.

That being said, I love the mentality. Just that it could have been done better is all I’m saying.

It's one of those things where players talk and if they talk they have to back it up or they look worse. Like the State guy talking shite to Seth Williams. This guy is a TF so we can easily shrug it off if we lose to young and dumb.

The last memories part makes me little insecure so I cant be too mad at him either.

My assumption before NIL and transfer portal would be talking about the seniors and such.

Post NIL and transfer portal, all bets are off
