Not good.

I’m by no means defending Gus. He is very bad when playing away from JHS and would be coaching at Georgia State if not for Kevin Steele and Rodney Garner.

But as I said.....beating Bama is and will always be the number 1 way I measure a season. Obviously UGA, LSU and the bowl games matter but they are not nearly as important as the Iron Bowl.

There have been numerous case studies and analytical studies over the years stating that the lron Bowl is the greatest sports rivalry in the USA. There ain’t a 30 for 30 special on Auburn-Georgia or Auburn-LSU for a reason.

I’m frankly shocked that this is even debatable.

Beating Alabama is a very good thing.

I’m clearly in the minority.

But given the choice of:
1. Season we had beating Bama
2. 10-3 and losing to Bama

...I would take #1.

Schwartz is faster than Bo was.

We’ll agree to disagree.

Maybe on a track, Schwartz would be faster but with 20 lbs of football gear, Bo wins.

But don’t trust me. Trust your own eyes. Enjoy

Last night sucked, but I'm pretty much over it today. I'm not sure I'm over 2013 yet.

I agree.

Loss yesterday against Virginia to me might not even be in the top 5 “most painful losses.”

1. Florida State - 2013
2. Van Kiffin field goal
3. LSU last second touchdown pass instead of kicking field goal - 2005

Call me a “Football School” homer, but just participating in Final Four was great and never expected.

In football, I expect Auburn to win every game against any opponent anywhere or die trying.

War Eagle!

I was planning on going but then I realized that I really need to clean the gutters and change the batteries in the smoke detectors in my house. Probably change the oil in my truck as well. Maybe next year.

Fired after Bama game in Tuscaloosa in November 2020 after 5-7 season

(2019 season is typical Gus bounce back season of 9-3 with surprise win over LSU)

Gus is now 6 wins and 14 losses against ranked teams away from J-H.

0.300

Ouch.

Gus makes the absolutely worst halftime adjustments of any coach in football.

It still eats at my intestines that went into halftime in Pasadena with a nice lead on Florida State.

Ding ding ding.

We have a winner.

6 - 12

Gus’ record against top 25 teams away from Jordan-Hare.

Extra credit if you can name the 6 wins. I’ll give you a hint....none of the 6 were in Tuscaloosa, Athens or Baton Rouge.

With Georgia, Bama and potentially a bowl game, that record could unfortunately get to 6 - 15 by Jan. 1st.
