Absolutely mind blowing. That’s like trying to lose play calling.

Third down performance was record settings but not in a good way.

We run for 300 yards in the opener. We spend the next two weeks practicing the passing game. Figured it would be good for us.

Now? We’ve spent the last two games trying to force the pass.

I know Hugh wants to pass to set up the run, but why don’t we run to set up the pass?

Because the HC is a dumbass slime ball and has no idea how to coach offense. That’s the bottom line.

No offensive identity/philosophy.

8 RB carries where the defense gives up 16 pts. Its not like we had to throw it around to get back into the game. Its so damn stupid.

It’s literally sick watching UGA v The Turds and see innovated play calling on offense. Auburn has ZERO creativity on offense, at all. The only time a receiver goes into motion it’s to run a jet sweep or a fake jet sweep. Most boring offense in recent history

Bama's play to pick up the first down to win was sick. Good design and executed perfectly. We are so far behind.

I've been an Auburn fan for well over 40 years and I don't remember us ever not running the ball. Now, we don't even try.

You don't remember the 1997 team? We had several games that year with negative rushing yards.

I tend to ignore Tator Tot's years when it comes to rushing.

I’m gonna repost this shite Everywhere. It’s so fricking frustrating to see it repeated two weeks in a row.

Oklahoma rushing stats

Freeze after the OU game:

quote:

"If you take away the sacks, we averaged 4.3 or (4.5) yards per rush. That's a pretty good average in this league. I probably should have forced the run a little more


A week later he ran the ball 40% less.

Auburn needs a real OC, a real QB coach and a real tough O-line coach. Clearly we have none of these. The offensive team has regressed. The D was great.
