Good way to think as a Clemson fan. You won't ever have to worry about those worthless NC's.

Considering we saw the exact same play in Bama v Ole Miss this year as we did in AU v UGA how crazy can it be? Especially compared to entire college history.
And a FG return for a TD is not crazy, just rare because they are not missed inbounds. Gatech return was much more crazy because it required a block first.
Holy insecurity, Batman. My post was supportive of AU, idiot.

Tubs was a dead man walking for years because of his relationship or lack thereof with the good ol boys running AU back then.
He got in bed with the GOB when he left Ole Miss for Auburn. The GOB bought that damn pine box he traveled in from Oxford to Auburn. He knew what those GOB were all about and he gladly took their money. Complaining later about how poor ol' Tubs was mistreated by the GOB falls on deaf ears here.

So basically you're just either making shite up or you're so delusional you actually believe what you type. Either way you're wrong.

Were you around in 2004? That was a better season than any coach coaching in the SEC right now has ever had.
This is an interesting subject. I only read the first two pages but had to respond to this. I respect the hell out of that '04 Auburn team that got screwed. But this is absolute delusion. Disregarding the fact that AU was left out of the big game, you still cannot argue that '04 Auburn had a better season than '09 Alabama. Both teams had a couple close games, but the schedule Bama played was FAR more difficult than Auburn's. And Bama was far more dominant in those games than Auburn was.
In '04 AU beat the #5,8,9,10,15 teams in the country (23rd toughest schedule in the country per teamrankings.com. If you know of a more established source that has data going back that far, feel free to provide. You will not see much respect for that schedule).
In '09 Bama beat the #1,2,7,9,20,22 teams. (most difficult schedule in the nation per Team Rankings.
Bama was also the first 14-0 title winning team in major college ball. Bama had a Heisman (which I don't consider much of a credit to the season but y'all build statues for those so I include here. Bama absolutely annihilated a Florida team that was at the absolute peak of an SEC dynasty: Tim Tebow's senior year, team was totally loaded with Meyer's recruits, clicking on all cylinders. In '04 Auburn didn't beat anyone in that universe. Also I will add that Bama was coming off of an undefeated regular season. They didn't slip under the radar for most of the season.
Again, nothing but respect for '04 Auburn, but that post was just absurd.

this "deserves" to be posted here too
has there ever been a team that has more misconceptions about it than lsu. prevalent memes
miles wins on talent alone
miles is a terrible game/clock manager
lsu "backed" into '07 ncg
lsu "shared" '03 title
lsu is "about equal to" program X (other than bama)
lsu win=opponent sucked. lsu loss=lsu finally played a good team
21-0 overshadows win in bds
miles can't develop qb's
miles doesn't utilize talent correctly
miles is basically larry coker
miles IS STILL winning because of saban
do you knuckleheads realize you are to this day perpetuating basically every one of these ridiculous notions and that they undermine the sec and your own team? you don't feel the slightest bit of stupidity for this?

Yea that's not much difference really at all. Especially when you consider the #2 team you beat didn't have their QB.
ETA: A quick fact check shows you beat 5 ranked teams not six.
Also, Auburn dominated every team they played except Alabama and LSU so I'm not sure how bama was "FAR more dominant". 04 UGA wasn't 09 Florida but they were a top 5 team loaded with senior talent and Auburn destroyed them.

We had two running backs that were better and a 1st round NFL QB who was also SEC POTY. We also had the nations #1 scoring defense.

Yea, you shouldn't have added that because it's irrelevant.
Aside from the LSU game which was in early September no team ever had the ball in the 4th quarter with a chance to tie or take the lead vs. Auburn. D-O-M-I-N-A-N-T
Alabama had 5 such games and even trailed in the 4th to Auburn, VT, and LSU.

Not true, though they are stacked that's part of the coaches job and can't be held against him.

Are you actually arguing this? He seems to have gotten better but my God his first 6-7 were a joke.

True.

Since the beginning of Miles tenure there are several programs LSU is about equal to. Bama isn't one of them because they are so far away.

Agree here, this is just dumb message board talk but it happens to every team.

Well, it does.
quote:
miles can't develop qb's
In a decade he's produced one good QB and he was a JUCO. He's never recruited a successful high school QB. (I know the same can be said for Gus).
quote:
miles doesn't utilize talent correctly
Would disagree here. He might have trouble maximizing his talent because of lack of production from the QB position though.
quote:
miles is basically larry coker
Disagree here though Miles never reached the heights of Coker he has obviously sustained his program much better. Though to be fair Coker was too old to go for very long.
quote:
miles IS STILL winning because of saban
I don't think anybody still says this but he did walk into a golden situation but that's not his fault. He kept the train on the tracks a lot better than a lot coaches who have also walked into great situations.

nope contrary to popular belief the majority of us were glad to see coach tubs go. it was getting annoying to hear every year around this time Is. coach tuberville going to be the new hc of Nebraska. Arkansas. A&M. LSU. Miami. etc just so he could get a big fat raise for himself and the rest of the bbq gang

UF was not hitting on all cylinders. The offense was the worst under Meyer due to Addazio. UF just out talented everyone else and never really dominated anyone except uga

The difference now is that having a reliably very good to great defense most years takes away a lot of variability with how you end up performing. It keeps you competitive and masks other deficiencies (see LSU having an okay season last year with that horseshite offense). It remains to be seen if this happens with Gus at the helm since I think it's somewhat of as cultural aspect of a football team, but I still think it's likely with Muschamp at DC.

I'm probably the biggest Aubie basher there is but it was time for Tubbs to go.
He had gotten lazy and too loyal to assistants that needed to go. Aubie made the right move firing Tubbs.
Now, everything after that has been a shitshow but Tubby had to go.

You're right Les Miles has never F'd up the clock at the end of a game, USC doesn't have a national title trophy from 2003, LSU is pumping out star QBs, there was totally no good fortune involved in being the only 2 loss national champion in college football history, there are no other programs who can touch LSU's incredible achievements of two conference titles and a BCS title since Miles took over, 9-6 is totally what everyone remembers about 2011 and not 21-0.
It really is mind blowing that you have convinced yourself your arguments make any sense whatsoever.
