0-12 how many times has Auburn been ranked higher than those teams they are facing on the road?

A few of those. Not Bama in that span, but there were some not very good LSU and UGA teams he shite the bed against in that span.

And if anything that piles more on Gus. Being paid like a top-5 coach and not being ranked anywhere near that.

Gus was incapable of developing a QB out of high school. The only time he ever won anything at AU was with a transfer QB. He could never develop WRs for that matter. That in itself were glaring problems that seemingly would've never gotten fixed. Basically it was hope and pray to land a transfer that was developed by someone else, or bust. For the amount of money they paid him, that is absolutely unacceptable IMO.
