Auburn is such a fricking joke in literally everything. Why the frick are they even in the SEC?? All they do is embarrass the rest of us.

I can’t name one thing AU is good at outside of fricking their cousins.
yeah, it sucks that we dont have a baseball team thats in the top 5


oh wait

paradoxically, the “safety cap” on the Q-36 is what makes it Explosive

How do some of you rapidly aging O-Ters keep yourself from dwelling on getting old and not letting it bother you, because I need to learn.
improve your diet/fitness and get in good shape, pursue the things that give your life meaning

i’m in much better physical condition at 65 than i was at 46, and fortunately i’ve managed to avoid the major aches and pains associated with my age (my back/knees/hips are all pain free and work as designed)

with kids grown and (mostly) out of the house, i’ve had enough free time to pursue playing music on a regular basis, which has been a real fountain of youth for me

Wow how dumb. You never make the first or third out trying to get to third

At least we’re not Auburn, amirite? Can’t even outperform Rutgers, what a bunch of bums

Wasn’t spying dude, it was assuming tampering. Spying? Cmon fantasy land and people don’t think
SP defended it by saying “spying of future opponents is impermissible, but since it was unlikely that we would be playing them it wasn’t spying” without addressing the tampering accusation

Does it really matter. Nepo should have been burning timeouts after Tennessee cut it to one possession game.

Makes it easy on the committee when a fan base says- ahh F’ it, don’t compare us against other bubble teams we don’t belong and we hate our coach
i dont think AU fans saying all that has any more bearing on the committee than fans of any other bubble team saying, “dont look at our Q1/Q2 record, ignore our bad losses, we love our coach and we deserve a shot”


personally i care as much about getting a bid as i did about playing a bowl game after going 5-7 last year - what little short term upside you get is pretty worthless to the program in the long run

we should beat them, but we won’t and look like even bigger fools than we already do.

19-0 with a 10 point lead and season on the line
good on us to remove all doubt of whether or not we deserve a bid
quote:

The committee loves to make an example
i wouldn’t underestimate the committees tendency to punish teams/coaches they dont like

Bruce’s comments about AU deserving an at large vs M-OH + AU assistant “spying” on a tournament team = AU one of last 4 out
i keep waiting for AI tools to clean up old analog recordings, be it music off old 78s or old cassettes of your college band’s live performances

i know its possible to do some of that manually with programs like Adobe Audition, but it seems like you could turn those old hissy, noisy recordings into high quality sound much easier (and quicker) nowadays

Easy for players to talk a big game like they are behind their new coach when things are going well. Start losing a few tight games in the meat of the season and it gets a little more revealing.
