Gus and Auburn always pull that rabbit when you least expect it. Tennessee seems likely but they’re showing signs of life now. Georgia for some reason keeps popping up. The pressure to win an NC is so big over there that I don’t know what happens if they don’t win one fairly soon.

AU seems like the logical choice. UT has Pruitt and he's showing improvement and still relatively new. Gus feels like he's on his last leg if he doesn't win the West soon.

Might be a good idea for Georgia fans to run and hide so Silicone Valley would be a good place to go!

We’d have to quarantine them first.

Yep, so is the culture of college football contracts and salaries these days with the insane buyouts.

Tennessee


Tennessee doesn't get to claim they're "back" just yet. They recovered the '19 season nicely when all hope seemed lost, but they had some atrocious losses. Ask Arkansas fans circa 2014 about strong finishes and bright futures under promising head coaches.

Auburn is the only team out of the other five that isn't steadily winning 10+ per season. But it's possible - though, not likely - that Nick Saban retires before Auburn fires Gus Malzahn.

Most are pretty safe right now. So I'll go Gus. Pruitt might come up if Tenn gets blown out again by every good team they play.

What about losing to Mizzou? That's a possibility.

He’ll manage to beat Saban once out of the next three seasons and keep his job.

Might not matter if he wins only 8 games a year that is what his ceiling is at 8 wins. Might get tired of that and get him fired and if there is someone better out there that will come to Auburn.

Alabama, because those Gumps are declining and so hard to please

We are locked in on Pruitt

I think both Auburn and Tennessee are on equal footing.

A bad season and the coach is gone.
Pruitt did save the year in 2019.
But a repeat of 2019 will not be good enough. Bad losses are bad losses and they will be punished. Gus is also at the end of his rope. A bad season, and he's gone.

So the question is... which team is more likely to have a bad season?
I just dont see the bad losses for Auburn in 2020. Tennessee is more likely.
