  10. crickets is all you will get from the right. the bare bones truth is they do not care as long as they get to keep their assault weapons. i mean hell we have been praying over this for two or three decades now? and christians say what. god first. then family. then country. i might have that order wrong but if these cats think jesus is ok with their actions while people kill our own school children just because they want the right to bear arms tells me all i need to know. they do not care period. i am so sure jesus is not down with this shooting and gun crap at all. because the bottom line is people are dying because of this stance. and idiot with a brain should pretty much understand you are putting your love of guns against the right of a child to live. ther care about those unborn babies but they just do not give a damn about those precious children getting gunned down regularly. it is sickening. if you ignore what they say and watch what they do it is clear as a bell.
  11. Jody Serrano 7-9 minutes An image showing three banners. One says "Honk If You Know," the other says "Kanye Is Right About the Jews." A third advertises GoyimTV. The antisemitic Goyim Defense League hung a banner over a busy highway in Los Angeles citing Kanye West’s hateful comments about Jews. Kanye West’s recent antisemitic ravings have inspired celebration and calls to action among white supremacists, neo-Nazis, and other extremist groups online, according to the Anti-Defamation League. Over the weekend, one group took its support of West and his hateful vitriol to new level, dropping a banner stating “Kanye Is Right About the Jews” over a highway in Los Angeles. After West promised to “go death con 3 on Jewish people” earlier this month, the ADL’s Center on Extremism published a roundup of extremists’ groups response to the artist, legally known as Ye, all of which have delighted in having a high-profile ally amplify their antisemitic beliefs in the mainstream. Groups from the Proud Boys to the Nation of Islam, among many others, have praised Ye for “speaking a lot of truth” in their misguided fight against the invented specter of “Jewish control.” The antisemitic Goyim Defense League, which claimed responsibility for the Los Angeles banner, has also decided to use Ye’s comments to pit the Black community against Jewish people, declaring the latter “a universal enemy.” Read more Go Funko Yourself This Halloween Remembering <em>Enterprise</em>: The Test Shuttle That Never Flew to Space Andrew Anglin, publisher of the neo-Nazi Daily Stormer website, hailed Ye as one of the greatest people to have lived since Jesus Christ, “or at least since Adolf Hitler,” the ADL reported. “Ye is the single greatest person who ever lived in all of history since Christ, or at least since Adolf Hitler. He’s gone full on. He’s not backing down, and they’re gonna have to kill him,” Anglin wrote in an article about the artist. Experts see danger in West’s rants. Oren Segal, who leads the ADL’s Center on Extremism, told Gizmodo, “Here [is] a person who has more followers on social media than there are Jews in the world echoing some of the statements and messages that [extremists] promote.” Segal said that one way extremists try to amplify their hatred is to identify someone with a great following who might share their ideas. “You never know who’s going to respond to hatred violently,” Segal added. “The more that it’s out there, the more that it’s normalized, the greater the danger.” Neo-Nazi Group Hangs Highway Banner in Los Angeles Meanwhile, in the real world, extremist groups also aimed to capitalize on West’s antisemitic comments. On Saturday, the antisemitic Goyim Defense League—“Goyim” is a disparaging word for non-Jews in Hebrew and Yiddish, often appropriated by online neo-Nazis—dropped a series of banners over a busy overpass of the 405 Freeway overpass in Los Angeles. The banners read “Honk If You Know” and “Kanye Is Right About the Jews,” along with a banner advertising their video site and the American flag. The Goyim Defense League livestreamed the event and at one point performed a Nazi salute. Watching the video is chilling, and audible honks from cars can be heard at different points in the livestream. Besides the antisemitic banners, residents around Los Angeles have also received antisemitic flyers left at their homes and on their cars in recent days, the Los Angeles Times reported. Sam Yebri, a lawyer running for Los Angeles City Council, received an antisemitic flyer at home and posted pictures on Twitter. One of the flyers accused the covid-19 “agenda” of being driven by Jews. Yebri told the Times that although the antisemitic ideas in the flyers are not new to Los Angeles, he believed that Ye’s recent remarks had given antisemites momentum. “Kanye’s remarks give added air and momentum to the hate that previously was limited to the dark corners of the internet,” Yebri said, according to the outlet. “Now it’s popping up in neighborhoods, at people’s homes and throughout Los Angeles.” White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre denounced the antisemitic events and actions in Los Angeles late Monday morning. “.@POTUS ran to heal the soul of the nation after years of hate and division. As part of this healing, we need to call out antisemitism everywhere it rears its ugly head. These actions in LA are disgusting and should be condemned,” Jean-Pierre tweeted. What Kanye West’s Support Means to Extremists The artist has created a firestorm with his racist and antisemitic behavior and comments in recent weeks. The controversies began with the unveiling of Ye’s racist “White Lives Matter” T-Shirts at Paris Fashion Week. Subsequently, Ye accused the artist Diddy of being controlled by Jews, a dangerous antisemitic trope, on Instagram and said he was going to go “death con 3” on Jewish people on Twitter, prompting both platforms to limit his activity. Fashion label Balenciaga and agency CAA, both longtime collaborators of West’s, said they would no longer work with the rapper. Segal said that extremists saw Ye as someone who was taking their ideas to the mainstream. Ye fit that bill perfectly, Segal said. “It legitimizes their hateful position in a way that is dangerous because no extremist movement, no matter what it is, should feel that they have a public figure that agrees with them and that amplifies their message, intentionally or not,” Segal said. Furthermore, Segal stressed that having extremists feel that their messages are real and that they have broad support encourages them to engage in activities that are dangerous to the groups they oppose. Violence against communities by extremists in the U.S. is not new, the ADL vice president stated, and has been happening for years. How the Public Can Counter Hate From Extremists’ Groups Given this panorama of hate online and out in the real world, what, if anything, can the public do to push back against the hateful messages and activities of these groups? Segal said one thing people can do is report hate and hate incidents, such as banners, stickers, or events, when they see them. The public can submit their reports to local law enforcement or the ADL. “The more data people have on what’s happening on the ground, the more we can drive policy to help protect communities,” he stated. Another thing people can do is to be a voice of reason in the face of hate, Segal said, explaining that having individuals with high profiles condemn what someone like Ye or others are saying in the public sphere means a lot. It’s a way of creating friction to the normalization of that hate by saying, “No, this is wrong,” according to Segal. On Monday afternoon, Ye’s ex-wife Kim Kardashian spoke about her former partner’s antisemitic behavior for the first time. While she did not name Ye, it seemed pretty obvious who she was talking about. “Hate speech is never OK or excusable. I stand together with the Jewish community and call on the terrible violence and hateful rhetoric towards them to come to an immediate end,” Kardashian wrote on Twitter and Instagram stories. Update 10/24/2022, 4:18 p.m. ET: This post has been updated to include Jean-Pierre and Kardashian’s tweets denouncing antisemitism.

  13. not only that orange jesus has gone bankrupt 11 times i know of so far. it might be more now.
  14. Here's what pregnancy actually looks like before 10 weeks. Experts explain why we don't see these images more often. Rachel Grumman Bender Mon, October 24, 2022 at 6:41 PM Pregnancy tissue after an abortion at 6 weeks. (Dr. Joan Fleischman/MYA Network) Photos of what pregnancy tissue from early abortions at 5 to 9 weeks actually looks like have gone viral. The images, which were originally shared by MYA Network — a network of physicians who provide early abortion services — and published in the Guardian, look like small clusters of white tissue and are vastly different from what most people typically see online. The photos have, unsurprisingly, elicited strong reactions. Feminist author Jessica Valenti came under fire for sharing the images on her TikTok, with people calling her “a liar” and the photos “fake” because, as Valenti shared on TikTok, “it doesn’t align with what they’ve been taught an abortion and a pregnancy is.” However, several others tweeted about the importance of seeing photos like these. “We need to change the images we use when we talk about abortion,” one user tweeted, while another wrote after seeing the photos: “It’s comforting and empowering.” Dr. Joan Fleischman, a family medicine physician and abortion care provider for 25 years, who co-founded MYA Network and gathered the tissues, tells Yahoo Life that a lot of imagery of early pregnancy is “fully inaccurate.” Women’s health expert Dr. Jennifer Wider tells Yahoo Life that “weeks 5 to 9 is the early time period in a pregnancy. At 5 weeks, the embryo is a mass of cells with a developing neural tube (pre-spinal cord and brain). The forming fetus is no larger than a grain of rice.” Pregnancy tissue after an abortion at 5 weeks. (Dr. Joan Fleischman/MYA Network) ‘I had no idea it looked like this’ Fleischman tells Yahoo Life that she uses a manual aspiration device for abortion procedures, noting it’s a “very delicate device so the tissue does come out quite intact,” as pictured in the photos. She adds: “Everyone has had the same response, which is, ‘I had no idea it looked like this’ because that cultural imagery is unchallenged.” Some social media users questioned why there wasn’t any blood in the images, while several claimed that the embryo must have been removed from the photos. However, Fleischman explains that the blood has been rinsed off and what remains is the gestational sac and the nascent (that is, just coming into existence) embryo, stating that there is no visible embryo at this stage. “I’ve never seen an embryo at 9 weeks because of the size,” she says, adding that it would have to be magnified and noting that around 9 1/2 weeks you do start to see an embryo with the naked eye. Pregnancy tissue after an abortion at 9 weeks. (Dr. Joan Fleischman/MYA Network) Because of the blowback from sharing these images, Fleischman says she commissioned a report from a pathologist to review them. In the report shared on Twitter by Guardian writer Poppy Noor, the pathologist, Dr. Emily Ryan, a clinical instructor in gynecological pathology at Stanford, wrote: “These photos are good examples of what we as pathologists see when looking at curettage specimens. In evaluating pregnancy tissue 9 weeks and under, the tissue is nebulous and identifiable embryos are usually not seen.” Fleischman says the image of tissue from an abortion at 6 weeks in particular is “profound,” since that is when Texas and Oklahoma’s abortion bans start. The Texas abortion ban has been called “the heartbeat bill,” which experts have called medically inaccurate. According to MYA Network, “There is no ‘heart’ at 6 weeks of pregnancy, but there are cells that will come together to form the heart, and those cells already ‘beat.’ This is the motion that is seen on ultrasound and that people refer to as a ‘heartbeat,’ but again there is not yet a formed heart.” She shares that some patients in need of abortion care come into her office “with so much heaviness,” but if they see what the tissue actually looks like after an abortion, they feel “100% percent relief.” Fleischman adds: “It’s a huge weight lifted.” Pregnancy tissue after an abortion at 6 weeks. (Dr. Joan Fleischman/MYA Network) Why do people rarely see images like these? “It’s a perfect demonstration of choosing images that advance your own perspective,” says Fleischman. She explains that when people are excited about their pregnancy, they want to see babylike images, noting that it’s “incredible when you’re excited and seeing that imagery and what’s going on on this day. They’re used medically to inspire people to take care of themselves.” However, Fleischman says the anti-abortion-rights movement has “really used” similar babylike images “so successfully in every aspect of what they do. They’ve really dominated what’s on the internet.” Wider agrees, saying: “For some people, picturing a babylike image makes the idea of terminating a pregnancy unacceptable — [but] at this early stage the embryo does not resemble a baby yet.” The overturning of Roe v. Wade, followed by abortion bans being triggered in several states across the U.S., inspired Fleischman to share these images. “When the criminality of abortion started to happen I was like, ‘This imagery needs to be known publicly,’” she says. Fleischman says that while some will doubt the authenticity of these images, she hopes that seeing them will cause people to “really grapple” with what they thought early abortions looked like. “How does this change how you feel? Nobody seems to be asking that question,” she says. “If you really let [these images] sink in, does that then impact your sense of denying this right to people?” However, Wider acknowledges these images may not change the minds of people who are against abortion. “I’m not sure it changes the pro-life vs. pro-choice argument, because it really centers around the fundamental difference of when does life begin — many pro-life people feel it begins at conception,” she says.

  15. Jason Caldwell's Monday morning quarterback column Jason Caldwell 4-5 minutes Stretch run time Following a bye the Auburn football Tigers get back into game week preparations with the Arkansas Razorbacks up next. It’s one of four consecutive games in which Coach Bryan Harsin’s team will absolutely have a chance to come away with a win with Mississippi State, Texas A&M and Western Kentucky up next. They are also four straight games that this team could lose if the Tigers don’t correct some of the issues that have plagued them the first seven games of the 2022 season. My guess is it will be somewhere in between, but it’s going to take Robby Ashford and this Auburn offense building on the performance against Ole Miss to make that happen. Running the football is going to be the key, something that can be done against an Arkansas defense that is every bit as porous as Ole Miss was. The Razorbacks are 120th nationally in total defense, allowing 457 yards per game. Against Power 5 opposition that number climbs to 470 yards. They are allowing 35 points per game in those same opportunities. Auburn is absolutely going to have the chance to make plays on Saturday. Can the Tigers avoid the turnovers that have hurt them this season and can they run the football? That’s the issue for them this week because Arkansas is going to score points. Can Auburn match them? That’s the question. The next two weeks will see better defensive teams, but both Mississippi State and Texas A&M are having their own issues on offense. At the moment those feel like the Missouri and LSU games for Auburn, games that will go down to the wire and the first team to 20 wins. There’s a path for this team to get back on track and build a little momentum heading towards the end of the season and the Iron Bowl, but there’s also a very real possibility that things could go from bad to worse. We’ll find out soon enough which direction things will take. Around the league Following a slow Saturday in SEC play, things get ramped up in a big way with the next few weeks going a long way towards deciding how the divisions are going to line up this season. After watching LSU in person in Auburn a few weeks ago, I wasn’t sure they were very good. I’m still not sure of that, but the Ole Miss defense was so bad that I picked LSU to win at home. I didn’t think it would look like that, however. LSU has improved by leaps and bounds over the course of this season. You have got to give credit to Brian Kelly and his staff because that’s not a roster loaded with NFL guys at the moment. Alabama got back to work following a loss to Tennessee and the perfect opponent was Mississippi State. Nick Saban’s defense has just simply dominated the Bulldogs under Mike Leach and that continued on Saturday night with the Crimson Tide playing a three-man front and daring Mississippi State to run the football. They had a few plays that worked, but didn’t score a touchdown until the last play of the game. It was Mississippi State's first touchdown in Tuscaloosa since 2014. South Carolina got a big win over Texas A&M to improve to 5-2 on the year and move back into the Top 25. With Missouri and Vanderbilt up next before a trip to Gainesville, the Gamecocks should finish 7-5 at a minimum this season and continue moving in the right direction under Coach Shane Beamer. Meanwhile, Mississippi State continues the Leach trend. They’ll be just good enough to win a solid game or two, it’s going to end in four or more losses. Leach has been a head coach for 21 seasons and has lost at least four times in 17 of those years. Another loss this season would mean 18 of 21 seasons losing at least 4 games. Just wild. 9COMMENTS Tennessee gets Kentucky this week while Georgia plays Florida in Jacksonville. Both should be able to navigate those games without too much trouble, setting the table for what should be a wild one when the Vols head to Athens on November 5. It should be a monster game that day, not only for the SEC, but nationally. *** Subscribe: Receive the latest Auburn intel, opinion and scoops*** ">247Sports
  16. Kickoff time, TV network set for Auburn’s trip to Mississippi State Updated: Oct. 24, 2022, 12:06 p.m.|Published: Oct. 24, 2022, 11:50 a.m. 2-3 minutes Auburn running back Tank Bigsby (4) runs for a first down against Mississippi during the second half of an NCAA college football game in Oxford, Miss., Saturday, Oct. 15, 2022. (AP Photo/Rogelio V. Solis)AP Auburn and Mississippi State will kick off under the lights in Starkville, Miss., in Week 9. The Tigers and Bulldogs are set for a 6:30 p.m. kickoff when they meet at Davis Wade Stadium on Nov. 5, the SEC announced late Monday morning. The matchup will air on ESPN2. Read more Auburn football: Defensive tackle Zykeivous Walker no longer on Auburn’s roster Auburn opens as home underdog against Arkansas for first time since 1998 Statistically speaking: Where Auburn stands coming off the bye week Auburn’s trip to Starkville will mark the 96th all-time meeting between the two SEC West foes. Auburn leads the series, 62-30-3, and holds a 14-7-1 edge on the road in the series. Despite that advantage on the Bulldogs’ home turf, the Tigers are 2-3 in their last five trips to Davis Wade Stadium. This year, Auburn will try to avenge the loss that kicked off the program’s backslide during the second half of last season. The Tigers squandered a 28-3 first-half lead last year at Jordan-Hare Stadium, giving up 40 unanswered points on the way to a 43-34 home loss. It was the first of five consecutive losses for Auburn to end Year 1 under Bryan Harsin, and the program has not fully recovered in the nearly 12 months since, as the Tigers are off to a 3-4 start to this season -- with two wins coming against an FCS team and a Mountain West opponent, and the other coming in the form of an overtime escape against Missouri to open SEC play. Before Auburn travels to Starkville, it will host Arkansas this weekend at Jordan-Hare Stadium while aiming to snap a three-game losing streak. Mississippi State (5-3, 2-3 SEC) is off this week after losing back-to-back games against Kentucky and Alabama, as Mike Leach’s program dropped out of the AP top 25 on Sunday.

  17. Auburn’s shaky run defense faces tall order against Arkansas, Raheim Sanders Published: Oct. 25, 2022, 7:04 a.m. 6-7 minutes One of Auburn’s biggest weaknesses will face one of its toughest tests coming off the bye week. When Arkansas visits Jordan-Hare Stadium on Saturday, Auburn’s shaky run defense will go toe to toe with one of the nation’s best rushing attacks in a matchup that seemingly puts the Tigers at a considerable disadvantage. “It’s going to be a good challenge for us this week, man,” Auburn linebacker Owen Pappoe said. “We’ve just got to stay disciplined. We can’t have guys hopping out of gaps. Just, shoot, win at the line of scrimmage and be physical this game.” Read more Auburn football: Reserve Auburn running back out for season Defensive tackle Zykeivous Walker no longer on Auburn’s roster Auburn opens as home underdog against Arkansas for first time since 1998 That’s something Auburn’s defense has been unable to do well this season, particularly in recent weeks. In its last game out prior to the bye week, Auburn’s defense was decimated by Ole Miss’ rushing attack in a historically bad performance for the Tigers, giving up 448 yards, three touchdowns and 6.49 yards per carry to the Rebels in a 48-34 road loss. It was the worst performance by Auburn against the run in at least 20 years and likely one of the worst in program history. The root cause: missed fits and missed tackles — things players and coach Bryan Harsin pointed to after the game and reiterated again Monday after having more than a week to review and assess the issues. According to Pappoe, Auburn’s coaches counted at least 20 missed tackles against Ole Miss. “If you look at the game — we could’ve helped ourselves by being in better position at times, having a better call at times, and then the tackling always becomes a factor,” Harsin said. “I think every defensive coordinator and every defensive coach would say that in every game, right? You got to attack. When their backs are good — they were hard to tackle. Those backs are really good players. They make it really hard to tackle. I thought we did have guys in position, and they broke tackles.” The showing against Ole Miss was also the latest entry into a growing list of concerning performances by the Tigers’ defense against the run. A week earlier, on the road at Georgia, Auburn allowed 292 yards and six touchdowns as the Bulldogs averaged 7.49 yards per carry — the most surrendered by Auburn in a single game since 2015, when LSU averaged 8.56 yards per carry in that year’s matchup in Death Valley. Coming out of the bye week, Auburn is last in the SEC and 119th nationally in rushing defense, allowing 204.4 yards per game and 4.85 yards per carry (117th in the country). Those numbers are even worse against Power 5 competition: 260.6 yards per game, 5.54 yards per carry and 18 touchdowns, which are the most rushing scores allowed by any FBS team against Power 5 opponents this season. It doesn’t get any easier for Auburn as it returns to the field this week for a division matchup against Arkansas (11 a.m. on SEC Network). The Razorbacks run the ball more than any non-service academy team in the country (48.14 attempts per game) and is ninth nationally in rushing offense at 240 yards per game while averaging almost 5 yards per carry. They’re led by the SEC’s leading rusher, Raheim Sanders, who is eighth among all FBS rushers at 124.29 yards per game. He’s also averaging 6.21 yards per carry on 20 attempts per game, with seven touchdowns on the year. “Five (Sanders) is a real patient dude,” Pappoe said. “Doesn’t bounce the ball a lot and stays on his track the whole time. And they’ve got a damn good O-line too.” It’s not just Sanders who makes Arkansas’ rushing attack go; the Razorbacks also rely on quarterback KJ Jefferson to complement the ground game. The 6-foot-3, 242-pounder is 13th in the SEC in rushing (second among league quarterbacks) with 57.33 yards per game, adding another dimension to Arkansas’ offense that Auburn must account for. “They use both those guys really well in the run game,” Auburn edge defender Derick Hall said. “They’re both dynamic, really athletic and can move the ball down the field really quickly. Like I said, fits is going to be the biggest thing for us this week — just making sure everybody’s playing their gap and playing fundamentally sound football, playing complementary of each other, everybody doing their 1/11th.” That has been the message for Auburn throughout the bye week and again this week, as the Tigers gear up for the final stretch of their regular-season slate: Do your job, stay focused on your part from snap to snap and finish plays. “We’ve got guys that just lose focus because you worry about, I don’t know whether it’s a lack of trust or something, but the guy next to you,” Pappoe said. “But just focus on your job and doing it to your full ability and just wrapping up.” It sounds simple, of course, but Auburn has struggled to put it to practice when the lights come on, particularly in recent weeks. The additional time off — to regroup, recover and reassess things heading into the final five games of the season — could prove beneficial in that regard. At least, that’s what Auburn is banking on ahead of Saturday’s showdown with Arkansas. “When you’re playing against really good players, you’ve got to bring your very best,” Harsin said. “…It wasn’t much different (against Ole Miss), it’s just now, we are able to finetune it and able to pinpoint those things that have come up in every single game. You just keep working on it to get better.” Tom Green is an Auburn beat reporter for Alabama Media Group. Follow him on Twitter @Tomas_Verde.

  18. In His Own Words: Sam Pittman looks to snap Auburn losing streak Nathan King 9-11 minutes The Razorbacks have won eight SEC games since Sam Pittman took over as head coach prior to the 2020 season, but none of them have been against Auburn. The Tigers' longest current winning streak in the conference is against Arkansas, which they've beaten six straight times going back to the 2016 season. The Hogs are a road favorite this week, though, against Bryan Harsin's squad, which has lost three straight games and has lost six of its last seven SEC matchups. Here's what Pittman had to say Monday about his team's trip to the Plains this weekend (11 a.m. CST, SEC Network). Opening remarks ... "We're excited to go to Auburn. We had a good bye week. I feel like we're healthy as we can be going into this game. We know they have a lot of good players. They are very talented, but we're looking forward to going to play." Injury updates? ... "We're going to look at (Myles) Slusher today in indy and see how well he can progress or how much better he is. We feel like he's going to be fine. Khari (Johnson) will be back, and hopefully we can get Malik (Chavis) back no later than tomorrow. Hopefully (Latavious) Brini's ankle that has been bothering him for five or six weeks now, hopefully it's healed. We'll know a little bit more about that. Marcus Henderson will be one guy that probably won't be ready early in the week, hopefully later. He had a high ankle sprain. Getting (Ty'Kieast) Crawford back today. Bumper (Pool) feels better, and Drew Sanders feels better. So, I think we did the right thing. We'll obviously wait to see on Saturday if it is the right call or not, but we feel like it is. Jayden (Johnson) will be ready to practice today, as well." Offensive balance against BYU? ... "Well, I think we opened up the game plan a little more last week on early downs. I think that's who we are. We can throw and catch, especially when we're unpredictable about what we are doing on early downs. I think that helped us against BYU. Certainly, I believe you have to run the ball to have success. A lot of teams are throwing it and having success. I don't mean that, but for the way we are built, I think we have to run the ball to have success then do some things off of that. But I like where we're at offensively. Obviously, last week we were big on third down. That helped us. As long as we continue that and hold onto the football, I think we'll like how our offense looks. I do right now." Dealing with injuries in the secondary ... "Well, obviously, getting who might be a 1 on your team, who you think is your better players back not only just physically out on the field, but it helps you as a play caller, because you've seen them do it before. You trust them a little bit more with guys you've seen than the hope of 'I hope we do it well.' So, each game's a lot about matchups, and how do you match them. It's hard not to look at scores, but scores really, really don't matter about how some team did against another team. It's about the matchup. Do you match up well with whomever they have? So, I think the first thing with Auburn, you've got to be able to stop their running game. Obviously they ran for over 300 yards last week. Then, how do you match up against their wide receivers and things of that nature. "So we're going to have to give them several looks. They've got a really talented quarterback. Young, but very, very talented. So we're going to have to mix up the looks for him pre-snap and see if we can't do a good job with that." Is Jadon Haselwood good to go? ... "I think it'll be a nagging thing with him, probably throughout the year. However, I think he feels a lot better. But we'll probably still have him in the green at practice." What did KJ Jefferson do during bye week? ... "We just didn't, he didn't throw the football last week. I can't remember the game. I'm wanting to say it might have been going into A&M on a Thursday, he threw a ball and didn't finish practice. It's been nagging him a little bit and so we decided not to throw him last week. I anticipate him being healthy and ready to go." Auburn's run game ... "Well Robby's their second-leading rusher. So some of those are designed runs, which he's very good at. Obviously, the other part is getting outside the pocket and running, which we're very concerned about that. But he's got a strong arm, but he's most dangerous when you have the receivers covered downfield and he takes off. I mean, he's really dangerous doing that. Bigbsy, probably last week he showed who he really is. They opened up against Ole Miss a lot of holes for him, and he made a lot of good runs out of that. But I've always liked Bigsby. I think he's a really, really good player. Breaks a lot of tackles, and that's the emphasis this week, trying to get him down before he gets started. They can get him 3-4 yards, he's hard to bring down. We need to get him as close to the line of scrimmage as possible." Noise around Bryan Harsin's job ... "I think they're playing really hard. It's Auburn, we haven't beat them since I've been here. We're 0-2 against them. I think they're playing hard. For them to come back after being down 21-0 the last game against Ole Miss, and come back and make that a close, good football game on the road. I think it says a lot about their coaching staff, and the kids still believing in them and playing extremely hard." Rocket Sanders' improvement ... "I like where he’s at. I think he’s 124 a game or something like that average. Ball security has to improve there. Again, not just necessarily ones on the ground but the way we’re carrying the ball. I think we’ve got to be a little smarter there. But he’s been a better back all year than he was last year just because he’s understanding it. He hasn’t played that position very long. But Rocket is a competitor. A guy that’s mature for his age, very much so. I think he can handle the load that he’s getting right now. Obviously we have four backs that we think are pretty good players. But it’s his ball. As long as he’s not tired we’re going to give him the ball." Preparing for Jefferson to go on the road ... "Well, we’re going to change practice up just like we did when we went to BYU. We’re going to start fast with good on good and things of that nature. It worked so we’re going to keep it that way. But KJ is the heart and soul of our team, so having him will help us tremendously. I think we’re ready to try to make a run. I mean we talk about it a lot. Of course you’re got to win the next one to get on a run. But especially late October, early November, it’s a lot about the vibe of the team. It’s a lot about where you’re at injury wise. What you really believe you can do, probably more importantly what you want to do. Things of that nature. I like where our team is. I think this is a big test for us, obviously on the road at a very traditionally rich program that has a lot of good players. And so, but I’m excited where we are and KJ is a big part of that." Bye week recovery mental and physical? ... "I think rest a lot of times puts things in perspective. You’re not running, running, running. You’re looking at, OK here’s where we are. This is what we’ve done. This is where we can get to. We tried not to rest them mentally as far as prep. Mental prep, film, walks, things of that nature, for Auburn. But obviously when your body slows down, a lot of times your mind does too. So hopefully we’ve got the perfect remedy for the guys to kind of go down a little bit, relax a little bit, because we know we have a hard five-game stretch coming up." Derick Hall and Owen Pappoe ... "Hall’s really good. Well, so is Pappoe. But Hall’s really good. He’s a problem. I think he has maybe four sacks, but it’s not just the sacks. It’s that he’s a good run defender, he can chase you down on quarterback reads. He can give you the read and chase you down. He can affect throws, affect where KJ will be able to set up in the pocket. I think he’s really, really good and is playing extremely well. Pappoe’s a guy that just gets you on the ground. He can run. Played a lot of ball for them. But he can run and very, very smart player. Seems to be in position all the time. I like (Colby) Wooden, too, 25. I think he’s a really good player. He’s a really good pass rusher. I like them all, but those guys really stick out. I like their linebacker corps. They seem to be good tacklers. Obviously you turn on tape and it’s the first guy making the tackle and a lot of times that’s the case with Auburn. I like them. I like their defense." ">247Sports

  20. Bryan Harsin raves about Jeremiah Wright’s development on Auburn offensive line Sydney Hunte 3 minutes Bryan Harsin mentioned during his Monday press conference that he’s been pleased with what he’s seen from Auburn offensive lineman Jeremiah Wright. Wright played both offensive and defensive line in high school and has seen time at both spots since coming to the Plains in 2020. Only this year did he gain his first career start as he received the call at left guard against Ole Miss on Oct. 15 in the Tigers’ final game before the bye week. While that ended in a Tigers loss, Harsin was impressed with the 3rd-year player, and he’ll be looking for more as Auburn faces Arkansas at Jordan-Hare Stadium on Saturday. “He’s in the right position now. He knows that and sees that. There’s no doubt in our mind. He’s a guard and he’s going to be a good player. Now we have to build on that this week,” he said, according to On3’s Ellie Oldham. Wright has also gained plaudits from his teammates. Per On3, against Ole Miss, he graded out with the 2nd-highest PFF score among all Auburn offensive linemen this year on run-blocking attempts. “I’m happy to see him out there getting his experience,” said tight end John Samuel Shenker. “He’s a tough guy. He’s had some injuries, so he’s had to fight back from those, but I feel like he’s done really well so far.” TRENDING 58,148 READS 51,772 READS 23,016 READS Sydney (@SHWrites on Twitter) is an Atlanta-based journalist who has covered everything from SEC and ACC football to MLS, the U.S. men's national soccer team and professional tennis.

All systems are supposedly go after the star quarterback out in the loss to Mississippi State and getting banged up in the brilliant performance against BYU. He had two weeks off to rest up, and now Auburn has to deal with a passing game that found its groove in Provo to go along with the ground attack that’s ninth-best in the nation. Auburn might have finally figured out how to score a little bit with a great day from the ground game in the 48-34 loss to Ole Miss, but the run defense gave it all back and then some. The Tigers allowed 740 rushing yards and nine touchdowns over the last two games, the run D is the worst in the SEC, and KJ and his group of rested playmakers should be able to rumble. – NFL Expert Picks, Week 8 Why Auburn Will Win Outside of KJ Jefferson being hurt, what has stopped Arkansas so far? It loses when the run defense shuts down. The Hogs were great against Alabama for three quarters until the Tide backfield took over and finished with 317 rushing yards. Texas A&M came up with enough big runs to get close to 200, and Mississippi State even mixed it up a little bit. Arkansas is 0-3 on the year when allowing 160 or more rushing yards and 4-0 when it give up fewer. Coming off a 179-yard day against Ole Miss, this is when Tank Bigsby needs to come up with something otherworldly. The Hog D is the second-worst overall yardage-wise in the SEC, it’s bad on third downs, and the secondary can be thrown on to keep things moving. Auburn has so start running, own third downs, and then come up with something big through the air to test the Hog corners deep. However … – Game Previews, Predictions College | NFL What’s Going To Happen The Auburn passing game isn’t accurate enough. That hasn’t mattered too much against for a Hog secondary that gives up pass plays in chunks, but QB Robby Ashford is only hitting 48% of his throws and should be good for a key pick. Auburn will build off the offensive performance against Ole Miss, but it still won’t be enough. The Arkansas balanced attack will be too relentless. – College Football Expert Picks, Week 9 Arkansas vs Auburn Prediction, Line Arkansas 35, Auburn 27 Line: Arkansas -4, o/u: 61 ATS Confidence out of 5: 3 Arkansas vs Auburn Must See Rating (out of 5): 3.5
