2025 schedule

@ FSU
ULM
Wisconsin
BYE
@ UGA
Vanderbilt
@ Missouri
Tennessee
@ South Carolina
BYE

@ Auburn

What a murderer’s row of a schedule. You could make a case for anywhere from 8-4 to 10-2.

they cant afford to fire him - buyout would be north of $65 million

Auburn’s record in its first two seasons under Hugh Freeze is the same as its record in the two seasons that Bryan Harsin was there.

Aub’s would be better served if they concerned themselves with the current trajectory of Auburn football. They just logged 4 straight losing seasons and have paid well over $100million in buyouts in the last 5 years.

Stubborn old Gus doesn’t look so bad compared to the pure shite Harsin & Hugh have fielded.

I thought it was worse? Or maybe that's against the SEC.

Hard to keep up with all of Auburn's embarrassing stats under Freeze.

I don’t see a loss on that schedule for Bammer

If he has a 3-4 loss season that fanbase will riot and it’ll get ugly.

No, you paid Liberty 3 million for a coach no one else would touch.

Conversely says a lot about the Auburn fanbase that 7 losses every year is just fine.

well, technically speaking the ones with the wherewithal to actually affect the trajectory of Auburn football wanted Freezus, so those of us who thought that was a dreadful mistake will just have to suffer through it

we have endured 4 straight losing seasons but haven’t come even close to half the $100 million figure you cite

however if bama were to cut DeBoer loose after 2025 the 2-year experiment would have cost you close to $95 million in HC compensation alone

which as i previously stated wont happen because you cant afford it

At Georgia, LSU tossed up and at SC are the likeliest possible losses of the schedule depending on what FSU looks like. There no way they’re this bad next year.

Tennessee is going to be really good. Auburn by default is going to be better with the talent influx. Oklahoma is going to be good too with their WRs healthy and they got the #1 transfer portal QB. Missouri has a solid program.

You could make the case for losing to any of the above teams too.

How about the even better talent influx Bama is getting?

The recruiting classes will be ranked about the same once Ty Haywood is taken off of the commitment list when he signs elsewhere. Currently Auburn’s transfer portal class is ranked much higher.

Auburn is taking a leap in overall talent while alabama is taking a step back from where they were under saban.

The talent gap between the two programs is shrinking dramatically for 2025.

A jump back from the #1 ranked recruiting classes to the second ranked, back to back since DeBoer arrived?

He will get 3 years minimum.

Over the past 60 years, more coaches retire at Alabama than get fired.

You don't attract good coaches by firing coaches before they finish their 2nd year.
