Is this really one of the biggest messes in Auburn football history? I’m not saying I’m pleased with this season, but this seems very exaggerated. This honestly is just par for the course for Auburn dating back to the Bowden days. This season reminds me a lot of 2003. And we all know what happened in 2004.

No it's not

Maybe if you factor in the off the field issue (buyout) it is.

This season, in isolation, is just boring and unsuccessful. It's not truly disastrous.

The problem is there isn't any light at the end of the tunnel, and while I'm not one who thinks Gus is going to lead us to anything worse than this, 2 more years of this sounds absolutely miserable.

How so? This is nothing like 2003. We didn't lose a wizard play calling OC the year before and have a patchwork OC lineup. In 2003, we opened with a loss to the eventual co-national champs and lost a hangover game the following week against a scrappy GT team on the road. The other losses were at co-national champ LSU, at home to Eli Manning and on the road in athens (i guess that is a simlarity).

The 03 team would never have lost to this year's UT or MSU, and probably not LSU either.
