How often has your team shuffled your OL mid-season?

Not due to an injury? Simply you did not find the best players in fall camp? This is the 3rd straight year under Gus that we have had mid-season changes at OL. How often has your team done this?

Please inform the market-rate morons on the Auburn rant that this is not common.

I can't say. I would imagine as often as is needed. Auburn must be able to run better and protect Stidham better, or there will be more losses. A team's has to do what a team has to do.

1. It's not mid-season.
2. Brahms wasn't starting due to recovery from an injury.
3. Auburn does 1's vs. the 1's during fall camp so you're kind of a dipshit for pushing that narrative.

Paid off huge for us last year. We were starting solomon kindley at RG and he simply wasn't cutting it so we put in Ben Cleveland after the AU game when it was clear SK wasn't physical enough for what we wanted to do. He ended up being just the answer and played very well down the backstretch.

LSU will trot out the 5th different OL combination in as many wks. This is due to injuries though

Wait. This is a thing? You mean some teams don't have one major transfer or suspension just a couple or so weeks before the season starts? Or one starter go down in the opener, and an average of one every game and a half or so over the first four weeks? You mean some teams aren't without literally every starting offensive lineman but the center by week four?

Must be nice.

I don't remember a season without injuries on the OL.

Ole Miss will be the 5th combination in 5 games on the OL for LSU. But that's mostly due to injuries.

Yep. Some coaches don't actually evaluate talent in fall camp. And realize things have to change after giving up 11 sacks in a game or give up a double digit lead to Coach O.

I believe some coaches try their best to play the senior players even if there is a better player behind them. I think that is a coaching mistake but the teams players might respect that till the team loses and the senior players are exposed as not helping in winning games if that makes any sense.

I think it's safe to say that every fan outside Auburn hopes Gus stays at Auburn for life.

If winning last year and in 2013 against Alabama, plus claiming the best record against Saban while still losing more than you’ve won against him justifies his $49m contract and gives you warm fuzzies that Gus is a good coach, then you’re pathetically retarded.

Gus at Auburn for life.
