Muschamp is not a good comparison because who has ever been excited about watching his team regardless of his record??



I think the lesson is that most AU fans were chest bumping that Chiz with Gus would take over the SEC after 2010 and they both flamed out to a degree. Gus like Larry Coker for example and other 1st yr succesful coaches now have to deal with expectations and the heavy demand to meet them. Its very real that AU will be the favorite in the west and odds on to make the title game with such a young team coming back.I think thats the real test. He proved he could win in the SEC, but can he do it when everyone expects you to now?

And he has the ticking timebomb of a batshit crazy wife.

Malzahn literally had everything so his way this year. Injuries were light, balls bounced his way, bama kickers kept missing FGs, etc, Hell, as a team I think they only lost like 8 of 20+ fumbles this year. That is simply something's that doesn't happen year in and year out.

I will give him a tip of the hat for a well-executed offense, but I would also wait a couple of years before throwing an extension at him, like AU did for Chizik only to have to eat that money a year later.
