Very impressive.
Needs at least a top 8 next week to have a chance to advance...more likely a top 5.

I assume they will be bussing to and and from practice.
I imagine there will be some epic arse chewings on the way back and
some great great times they will remember for the rest of their lives.
Seems like a lot of logistical work and I'm here for the effort and creativity.

After Hugh was fired last year, one of our writers said that Hugh played a round of golf in Waco on friday morning and then we played Baylor that night. If true, that's pretty wild.
It's known that the week after losing to OU, he played on Wed or Thurs after practice (A&M). He was already on a little in the weird and unstable side, and then an addiction took full hold or started to show itself.
Thank goodness for Jackson arnold sucking he probably would still be here with an average to below average program.

Modern day Junction.
But seriously, good stuff, we might have a chance.

Pulling for him to make it so I can watch him play live at the tour championship at Eastlake this year.
Outside of something like a top 10, this week, unfortunately, looks like he'll need somewhere around a top 10 finish in the first playoff event just to slide into the second.
Per quick review of the the structure, season points hold for the first two playoff events, and points for the first two events are awarded on a very progressive basis.
Realistically, a long shot to make it to Atlanta.
The format changes to match play (true win or go home) I believe in 2 years.
New AU Nike Running Shoes out
Posted by pdfield34 on 8/3/26 at 10:43 am
FYI, new AU Nike running shoes out (also for all Nike schools). Look OK.
These are not Air Max. Hopefully new ones of these will come out later.
Baseball jerseys listed for $100, original price listed as $134. Looks like all sizes available. Have no idea if this is a case of $100 always being the "real" price. Don't keep up.
Also you can get the official football for $160. :rotflmao:

and that likely will get him some breathing room in terms of the Top 70 standings
I was surprised, but unfortunately, no not really.
Not a lot of points awarded on down the leaderboard. Will be a barn burner next week.
Any number of scenarios could play out, depending on how some randoms play.
He is still right at 70.

Top 35 or 40 would be more than solid and would continue the indications that he is going to be force.

At least that will be worth it for the individual.
Job security, great pay, and flexibility when she wants it.
Even here when all is said and done, a lot of these benefits will come from the gubment. :rotflmao: We're cooked (eventually).

What is better about today's college?
I guess the biggie is that you can go to a place like UGA for free.
I guess facilities are off the charts.
But at what costs? Seems like you should be able to go to your SEC school without going through a gauntlet in high school or potentially having to pay a ridiculous amount of money.
It's just weird that a bunch of UGA people end up at Auburn because they can't get into UGA (due to hope scholarship competition). I don't like it.
The cross section of students (as opposed to a metro area blob) and the allegiance seems like it would make 70s, 80s early 90s better.
Oh well, the money costs are just stupid. Government sucks.
AI will just do these kids' jobs anyways. :rotflmao:

They were saying he's now ranked up to 70th
Obviously things will settle down down, but with two more events before the playoffs, this shortened period could be wild for him.

Agree, there seems to be a chance.
Not to be ridiculous, but he seems to be a killer closer, A to S tier putter, and he is able to dial up ultra high ball flight like all the legends.
Loved how Nantz slipped in the idea of a Presidents Cup pick.
I'm here for it, we are due.

Yeah, I don't know about any of this.
Any macro cultural difference is still likely to come from ag, engineering vs liberal arts business.
The birthplace of 3K to 4K random students ain't gonna make a difference.
As mentioned earlier, UA is paying sons and daughters of out of state grads to come there.
Also, football success does contribute to more random nationals coming to any school.

Really just says it all about their culture.
Sure some hardcore athletic supporters want it, but the vast majority of the people at the university are weirdos and libtards who would pitch a fit at such unnecessary expenditures, at best they would just never care.

What are you talking about? Makes perfect sense, they are poor.
Great decision to spend more on other things like NIL.
LOL Men's SEC football, basketball, and baseball aren't going anywhere and will do nothing but get larger and more intense for the foreseeable future.
Just at Auburn:
Record attendance at the baseball games, new seating along the first base line, seats on the WE monster. Every game viewable by fans.
Football new north end zone.
Even if you just watch on TV, you are feeding the beast. Big donors will always be there.
Other sports will not survive.
Not that any of this is virtuous, but it is big entertainment.

The rankings and the seedings seem a little bit gimmicky or misguided to this bandwagon Auburn baseball supporter. I guess you have to do it somehow though. We seem to be a bit inflated or more in line with other teams.
To me, good luck finding a difference between teams 3 - 11 in the conference.
I say gimmicky because we seem to have gotten lot of benefit from playing our normal midweek home and home with Tech. Whipped them once and also got whipped. Really says nothing. Laid eggs vs Texas, UGA, and UA.
This makes it a little easier to take, but going 0 for 4 in two years having finally gotten the supers at home, dayum that sucks. Also really, really sucks pretty much knowing UGA or Texas will have a cake walk to the national title - but they are both good enough and deserving.

I know you said tee shirt, but just in case, AU team shop has the replica jerseys. Only $170. :rotflmao:
The design is sweet though, along with the pinstripes.
