Georgia and Alabama at home?
Must win season for the coach?
New QB?
Low preseason ranking?

They're gonna lose to LSU in Baton Rouge and then run the table. 11-1, SEC West Champs.

It's how these things work.

This is one of their years where they have:

What the frick? Our OL will be the same garbage it was last year. We don't have anyone transferring in this off-season.

The OL actually improved a lot as the season went on, still not great though. There is actually a good amount of experience all together.

8-4 or 7-5.


Your O/U is legit in my opinion


New QB. Shittly OL, No great RB. I worry that it will be a 6-6 type season myself




Agreed.

AU also lost 3 starting LBs, their most experienced and best CB, and a large DT that ate up blockers.

The oline will be more experienced and will be improved with another yr under pawpaw Grimes. But Gus didn't have his power running attack and a sure fire RB he could depend on to carry a heavy load last year. That hurt badly and will be an issue early this season with a green QB getting his first SEC starts.

AU has tons of SPEED, the question is will Gus utilize it to open up the offense?

Just under. I see a likely 7-5. That’s a tough schedule. Like LSU last year.

He still has Gus calling the plays, right?


But he's got 28 yr old Coach Dilly working him like crazy right now.

Under. If Gus beats Bama and UGA this season, Auburn should just make him coach for life and build a statue of him.

Arnt they all seniors this yearm But most only have one year of starting experience.

What pissed me off most about last season was our lost experienced player, Mike Horton regressed over the off-season. He should have been a solid player but he was awful.

7-5 seems most likely.

They could win a game or two above that pretty easily though.

Yup. Brand new QB and an absolutely atrocious O-line. Gus has his work cut out for him this year. Defense will we good enough to win us 8 games though.

labamfan, I think you're right...Auburn is never a team to take lightly..tremendous athleticism..Particularly on defense.

They suck this year and no qb.

Owen Pappoe is going to wish he had signed somewhere else by the end of the season.

Oregon vs Auburn is a pickem from what it looks like. I am curious to see a Cristobal offense go against that Auburn defense.
