Which is a huge reason we fired Malzahn. Little did we know...

He’s essentially using a 1973 business model in 2024. It doesn’t work anymore. It’s outdated and has been passed by just about everyone else. It’s no longer ‘innovative’ it’s downright pedestrian actually.

We moved the ball well against Oklahoma. I guess their defense isn't legitimate anymore lol.

I'm enjoying the long slide into oblivion for Auburn. They'll never regain the magic and its glorious. The cope and seethe and melt is tastes so good on the toast that their football team has become. Outstanding.

Turning into a basketball school before our very eyes.

You aren’t going to beat Vanderbilt scoring 21 points in 2024. His scheme is outdated and you have no playmakers. None. It’s a recipe for disaster.

No. That was disrespectful.


But I might think that.


If Spurrier said it would he get a pass? Just curious.


Spurrier who won multiple national championships after building a program that was pretty bad prior?

I don't know if he would get a pass, but it would probably be more believable.

He inherited like 27 players on his roster after the transfers left. I dont think what he said was unreasonable.


This number keeps dropping.

Where is the actual count, and what are we basing it off of? Including kids who transferred out in 2021?

I know Alabama lost more players to the portal than Auburn did in 2022, and Auburn brought in more players than they lost (as opposed to Alabama, who had a net loss of 15 players for the portal).

I dont sound like Freeze.

I sound like Freeze inherited a shitshow 1.5 years ago and anybody suggesting him to be fired now are losers. Get your quick fix with your right hand if you must, but this is ridiculous.. We dont even have the funds to fire him, or a name that would be a great replacement.

I don’t know about that but it appears that few of the Auburn fans on that board take this guy seriously

It was good enough to win the game for Oklahoma.

You think they should be 5-0, and they’re not making a bowl unless the Birmingham Bowl is willing to take a 5 win team, if you can get to 5 wins.

I’m not sure you’ll be favored to win against anyone left on your schedule outside of ULM. So you’re going to have to upset some teams just to get to 5.

You should’ve never fired Malzahn. Epic tragic blunder.

Struggling to see how you can win 0.88 of a game. Seems reality trumps statistics, as Auburn has in reality won 3 games, not 3.88.

He played three different QBs against Auburn in one game while he was at USCe and dragged all three under the bus way more frequently. Our guys lead the nation in turnovers and people cry foul.

Sorry, but a 73-0 game skews the stats.

Now do scoring margin. I'll save you the time, AU is 70th in the nation.

#2 UTk
#3 Tejas
#5 Bama
#7 Ole Miss
#16 USCe
#19 Mizzou
#25 OU
#30 LSU
#40 UK
#42 UGA - surprising
#61 Aggie
#70 AU - points matter
#73 Vandy
#85 UF
#114 MSU- Lebby is an offensive genius

All that said, no stats really matter until the sample size gets bigger and you're fully into conference play.
