As to your a-hole comment about our RB's we have one that runs 4.4 40 that you guys wanted in LaDarious Perkins. He nearly has 1,000 yards in two seasons backing up a now pro RB. His backup is Nick Griffin. The best RB to come out of Mississippi since Anthony Dixon and Jerious Norwood. Then Josh Robinson a 5'9 220 pound bowling ball that runs around 4.3 or 4.4 40. Vick Ballard our RB last year said he was a better RB he was then already.

Yall can't possibly improve much based on two new coordinators. Yall will still be implementing an entirely new offensive and defensive schemes.
Why do people act like it's fricking rocket science to learn a new scheme? You'd think it's right below the BAR Exam and the PHD test by most of the posters on this site.

Tuberville wanted because Saban was kicking his arse on the trail.

Georgia said the same thing when they finally ran Martinez out of town and got Grantham. Still went through growing pains in the first year. I wouldn't expect Auburn's trouble to be that extensive, since it's more a style change compared to UGA's scheme change to 3-4, but IMO it's still a stretch to think BVG's defense will be hitting on all cyliners in the first few weeks of the season.

So you think learning possibly 500 plays or more is easy? Ok.

Judging by interviews they already know Loeffler's scheme that won't be a problem. Especially by the 2nd game.

Do you not think they have run basically the same plays their entire career at that position? Tweaking differences here and there and throwing a different name on it doesn't take years of study to comprehend.
CBs have run man-to-man, short-zones, deep-zones, blitzes, etc since they lined up in that position. It's not some giant complex change that everyone tries to make it out to be.

2009 Scoring Def - 25.9 ppg (10th)
2010 Scoring Def - 22.1 ppg (5th)
2009 Total Def - 339.4 yds/g (7th)
2010 Total Def - 328.5 yds/g (4th)
Not to mention the fact that they switched from a 4-3 to a 3-4 without the personnel to do so.

Have you even played football? Or any sport for that matter?

Would you be satisfied with a 4ppg and 11yd improvement for Auburn?
What are your season defensive expectations number wise?

I see MSU fans being disappointed in 2012, and it has little to do with the Auburn game. We will see and why I am glad we get to play the season. I will say the MSU fans deserve some good to happen based on their loyalty.

Care to elaborate? Genuinely curious why you think so...
Honestly, 2011 was disappointing to MSU fans. Not meltdown-level disappointing, but a letdown nonetheless. That had everything to do with the Auburn game...particularly the injury to Tobias Smith. That killed our OL cohesion, which led to Relf cracking a few ribs in the LSU game... and his production never recovered

I really can't, sometimes I just go with my gut. I am not trolling. Just how I feel about it. MSU has great chance to make me wrong.

Highly doubt AU has 500 different offensive plays in the playbook.
