I think Arkansas is better than auburn, at least on lines of scrimmage

I hope we all get to find out.

There's the dilemma of if he gets run off do they find somebody better?

kind of like it was fun to beat Ray Goff but then y'all found somebody who knew more about what he was doing

He beat Bama last year. That gives him until the end of next season, at least.

Auburn simply does not have the monetary muscle to dethrone Gus for $22M at the end of this season if he finishes .500

He's not wrong. Our DL is really good, and Auburn has the worst OL in the SEC so we win that by default.

Yes. If he broke their streak though, no

Hope not. I think he has found a nice home for years to come.

He's absolutely obliterated Arkansas every season except when his worst team (2015) lost to a solid Arkansas team in OT. If he loses now I'd say he's done

After all the lost revenue lately the number of schools that do have the monetary muscle might be counted on one hand

Not necessarily. If they have the stomach to go into autopilot apathy the best move would be to wait it out and strike when it becomes apparent Saban is too old to get it done anymore, then immediately hire someone with fire. It’s a depressing timeline for a while for auburn fans but could reap benefits like making you their bitch again like the days of Tubs but perhaps even worse.

It’s gonna be tough for you guys to find the right guy willing to fill those tiny shoes

His buyout is even higher than Muschamp’s. No way he’s fired

If the Auburn administration has any sense, they hire Bill Clark at the end of this season if Gus tanks. I think it'll probably take 5–5 or worse this year to give Gus the axe, what with COVID-19 making things weird and his pretty huge buyout. If he doesn't win 10 again next year, I don't see how they retain him any longer.

LSU lost to MSU! Arkansas beat MSU the following week! How did that happened during those two weeks?

Yeah he will buy himself some time by "taking over offensive play calling duties" from Morris and then next year he'll fire Morris to buy himself even more time.

Rinse and repeat.

Your team is not going to beat Auburn! You have to worry about your team and when will your next win come? It will not be Missouri!
