Auburn was one of the best teams in college football almost every year and always had tons of talent while he was there from 2013-2020.


This is an exaggeration.

We had a great season in 2013.

We won some big games in 2017.

We were a good team in 2019.

Otherwise we were 6-5 to 8-5.
At times we were “the best of the worst” in the SEC.
A classic.

Think Vince Young Rose Bowl game.

Nebraska-Oklahoma 1971.

LSU- Alabama 2012

Auburn-Georgia 1971

Iron Bowl 2013

Amazing.

I can’t write a good sentence.

I’d read an exciting book like you describe.

Sort of John Grisham/Tom Clancy type stuff.

Those are rookie numbers.
You need to get those numbers up.


Auburn is great at contracts.
We never overpay.
Sexton allows us to have a mouthguard to bite during contract negotiations.

Meh Arkansas plays Virginia in a top 15 matchup Sunday


Denial and deflection will not dim the white hot spotlight that this game between talented, well coached teams who execute at the six sigma level on all assignments.

Get your piss warm!
The Arkansas Razorbacks versus The Auburn Tigers

Everything is at stake in this one.

There are big games, and then there are the historic games.

I expect the performance to make Vince Young Texas-USC in the Rose Bowl look pedestrian.

The Heisman moment will likely occur in this monumental battle of titans.

Don’t try to distract me from my Super Bowl!

Two of the greatest, mostest, historicalist College Football Powerhouses are going to put on a show Saturday!

Get your piss warm!

Long live Houston Nutt, Tony Franklin, Chad Morris, Hugh Freeze!
Is this the same Chambliss that played for the Yankees in the 1970s?

It’s impressive for a guy that old to play CFB at a high level.
Bobby Petrino would have had Auburn or Arkansas competing for championships.

Ham handedness by Auburn boosters and poon tang at Arkansas destroyed both programs.

Now we can both play our Super Bowl this week!

May the worse team lose!
I had triple bypass and aortic valve replacement just about 5.5 years ago.

Wall of text follows

1. Urinating after surgery will burn painfully for a few hours, ask for pyrimidine.
It won’t work.
2. When you wake up to be extubated do your best to cooperate.(when they take the breathing tube out of your throat)
3. You will likely spend at least 1 day in SICU where you will not sleep at all. This is a continuous operating environment.
4. Focus on the future when frustrated.
5. Hospitals are required to do annoying things like fingerstick blood sugars on everybody several times a day. If you are not diabetic, ask your surgeon if he needs that glucose value. He will decide if it is necessary to your care.
6. Your body will be swollen up with excess fluid. Your legs will be heavy for a week or more. You will have swollen legs. They will give you a diuretic to move the fluid off to the toilet. Your water bill will go up when you get home.
7. After the excess water is removed, if you had a leg vein graft that leg will remain swollen longer. Walking will help the leg move the blood to an alternative vein to return to the heart. This takes time. Keep the leg that they took the vein graft from elevated as much as possible when not walking.
8. Perform every respiratory exercise on the equipment they provide you. One device you suck in, the other you blow out. Own it. Embrace the suck!
9. You may not sleep much at all. Sleep aids like Benadryl and melatonin are allowed. Your doctor can help you.
10. Pain is felt on a spectrum by all people. You will be very sore and tired. Your solar plexus will hurt(Just below your rib cage). You may need narcotics for 3 to 4 days. There are non-addicting drugs that can help. Your doctor is well versed in this. The more narcotics you take, the harder it is to recover as quickly as possible.
11. Pain killers slow your bowels down. At some point, when you can tolerate the pain. Do not take narcotics. Your bowels will thank you.
12. Narcotics can also suppress cough. You need to cough because your lungs need to reinflate. Quit taking narcotics as soon as you can tolerate whatever pain there is.
13. Several drains will be placed in your chest to remove blood and fluid from various places in the chest cavity. They will pull them when it is proven they are not draining blood excessively. They are quite large so it will take time to pull them out. They will coach you as far as what they need you to do when drains are removed. Sometimes a drain being removed is painful, but once they are all out- you are closer to discharge.
14. Food: It is likely you will not want much to eat because of all of the movement of structures and placement of various catheters during you procedure. Eat what you can. Eat protein everyday.
15. You can’t go home until you poop. Prune juice works. Ask for it.
16. You will have a scar. Own it. The biggest will be a straight line in the middle of your chest. All of the drains will leave a mark as well.
17. Fold a blanket or quilt wider than your frame and place it in your chair. This will make it easier to get up. Don’t use your arms and hands to push up- might bust a chest wire!
18. You will likely lose blood. You may or may not need a transfusion. Your doctor will give you the best information regarding this possibility.
19. Home health is better than constantly being in the car headed to different appointments.
20. If you had a valve placed, you can hear it. Other people enjoy hearing it.
21. Follow instructions to the letter. This is serious business. Your effort to follow the plan will determine your outcome.
22. Don’t do more or less activity than the doctor has planned for you. He has done hundreds to thousands of surgeries and you have had one. He knows best. Listen to him. He is protecting you from numerous potential issues like busted chest wires, infection, bleeding, a fall, or abnormal heart rhythm.
23. Coumadin: if you have a mechanical valve place you will be on Coumadin. It will take weeks to get regulated. Your diet needs to be managed to avoid vitamin K rich foods like broccoli, cabbage, greens, spinach, and lettuce(except iceberg). Alcohol can increase your bleeding risk on Coumadin. In general, meats, breads, desserts, potatoes, corn, and beans are good.
24. Keep active. You will get better.
25. Take old tee shirts. Cut them open vertically in the back. This will make it easier to dress. Fashion a Velcro closure.
26. You will most likely need help dressing and showering. No baths.
27. Be patient. Healing takes time.

28.For women, take a sports bra to the hospital. They will not tell you this before the surgery. I do not know why.

29. Do not use your arms to push off to stand up. Do not lift more than a gallon of milk. You do not want to bust a chest wire. Your surgeon will let you know when you can resume various activities.

30. Plan on not driving for a month.

There have been a few players go away and then come back later during this portal era.

Do you think it will eventually be three year contracts with two way buyouts?
I only do work I want to do now.

About 10 hours a week.

I have enough.
Do they still count sack yards against the run game?

Brown drops back.

Refuses to anticipate any throw.

Curls up and dies for minus 4.
