Not an AU fan but I think the biggest obstacle this season will be the fans themselves.

I guess he may be thinking high expectations?

If so, he doesn't know Auburn fans very well, do he?

I wish I had the stats on what our percentage of conversion was on 3rd and 3 or less. It felt like 100%.



Please find that. It was amazing to see that last year.

I think so as well.

Our biggest issue will be senior leadership and our schedule.

Our offensive line will be fine.

As a fan sitting in the stands at almost every game, there was never a 3rd and less than 5 that I thought we would not get.

Guy was unstoppable on short yardage, no matter what you thought about him.

That will be a HUGE loss

You know I'm not wishing this on AU, but here goes...Aren't ya'll an injury away from being fricked on the O-Line?

I think UA experienced some of the same from '09 to '10. Having the line we had in '09 meant short yardage wasn't an issue ever. Not so much in '10 IIRC.

Possibly. But we cant count on that. LOL.

We will not be starting 5 freshmen like some think. We have some guys with "some" playing time...

This

Auburn will be a better team than most people are speculating. But the odd years schedule is always brutal. Auburn will finish in the top 3 in the SEC in total offense despite a green O-line. (Who I think will decent anyway despite the lack of experience)

I would be inclined to take offense if this made any sense.
