Malzahn has a very good situation at Auburn...... right now. The Barn had a magical year EVERYTHING fell into place at the end until the last one.They beat Alabama true enough but that win vs Georgia was Karma ripping UGA's head off and spitting down his still bleeding throat. Pure luck.

The reason I bring that up is things are very unlikely to fall their way like that again. Lose a couple, and especialy lose to Alabama letting them go back to Atlanta and the love fest might end as quickly as it started.

Just ask Tommy Tubs and Tater Tot and yes Mean Gene Chizik how fickle the Auburn Nation is.

Tubs waved his fingers in Bama's face for years,then he loses ONCE and is ousted. Tater Tot coaches an unbeaten season in a probation year,a team that goes down in Barner Lore then a bad season or two and out come the torches and pitchforks. Chizik wins a National Championship then WHAM BAM.

Watch yer back Gustav.

That one play might have been luck, but Auburn whipped UGA but most of the night. They had a 20 point lead with 12 min to go in the game. Most fans believe the Defense will not give up leads like that this year.

As long as Gus is a thorn in Saban's side, he has nothing to worry about. All the AU Ex-coaches you mentioned, never had a bammer coach try to make a rule up to slow down their Offense.
Gustav, I think you are good for a while.

I guess you were too young to remember a brick being thrown through Bill Curry's window, or Shula being run out of town? Do you honestly think if Saban had a bad year that the fans wouldn't cry out that the game has passed him by and want him gone? You should have heard the call in shows of "true Alabama fans" after the Iron Bowl and Sugar Bowl. They already wanted him gone.
