JBiGGiE 2,488 Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 Yep. The important thing is that we won. And wins bring the whole team up which is where we want to be; on the up and up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JFDTiger80 812 Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 So glad we won, for the fans the players and the coaches. White threw the ball well. He can be a very good QB. Defense was killing me last night. I ish our defenders could play in tighter coverage. They made 15 to 22 yard catches look way too easy. Our DL cannot rush the passer. We have to rush 6 or 7 to have any effect on the QB. Rudy Ford played hard and special teams is a big advantage for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tiger88 934 Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 We should be thanking KY for the passes they dropped. Silly statement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarDamnEagleWDE 12,737 Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 This was a hard-earned win on the road against a team that's improving with every game. Very impressed by Sean, Peyton, the O-line and a defense that stood tall when called upon. War Eagle, and here's to getting better and stronger with each passing week. MEH. It's UK. We should be thanking KY for the passes they dropped. Silly statement. Very true statement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
autigeremt 7,284 Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 We should be thanking KY for the passes they dropped. We should be thanking KY for hosting a win by Auburn! Execution is part of the game and we had our share of missed opportunities. Should have put another 15 on the board minimum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They should thank countess for dropping his sure td and mauling two receivers on their key drive, and Gus for putting it in reverse in the 3rd q. We could go on and on for both teams but that would be even sillier. Take the win and quit trying to justify a loss. Jmo. WDE! We won an SEC game on the road.Sweet!

CJBas 4 Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 I was stunned. OK, it was Kentucky. They're good but not great. Half way thgough the season they were within contention for teh East. Let's face it, that's not saying a whole lot. And I didn't think Auburn looked great...but they did look GOOD most of the time. And that's a damn sight better than they've looked up until now. I really didn't think they could get it together that well. Although this sounds like a huge come down from what we were expecting 2 months ago a bowl is looking possible. It will take a win next week over Ark, but that now looks possible. I still think Ole Miss, A&M, GA and AL are out of our reach. But 2 more wins is within reach. And they really do need the practice time a bowl allows. For the first time this year it really was fun watching Auburn play football. They REALLY had to be digging deep over the last 2 weeks to be able to come up with that effort last night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
urban meyer's pizza 0 Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 Like most, I thought we looked pretty damn great for the first half. Second half was some classic auburn conservatism. But all three sides of the ball made plays when it was crunch time, and that's really what matters. Bottom line: Good teams find ways to win. And I believe there was a lot of good in this game to build on moving forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depending on the direction this team goes next week, I seriously think Auburn has a chance to beat Arkansas, OM and UGA. I'll take it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weagl1 1,816 Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 I thought Sean really threw the ball well and it was particularly good to see no turnovers. Defense is still a work in progress and lack of pass rush is still the big issue holding this team back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AUClassof19 0 Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 Extremely proud of our team. This was definitely a do or die game, and our boys came through. Now it'll be interesting to see how we build off of this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we take Arky on the road at 11am, we can win any game remaining on our schedule. Not saying we would win out, just saying we would be capable of winning any of them.

3Jtiger22 0 Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 I saw fire and confidence in Whites actions and eyes in occasion. I do think if that will continue he can be something special. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

icanthearyou 4,468 Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 Very proud of the effort. I do wish we would blitz on third down. Hell, I would settle for faking a blitz.

True...but that blitz on third and goal caught UK by surprise and kept them out of the end zone. A rare safety blitz call but worked great.

JFDTiger80 812 Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 WDE, you have gone from positive to negative on everything AU football soooo quickly. As an alum, I am not pleased but I see improvement on offense now with White at QB. Recruiting is not going well now too. We do have some great ones that are still wanting to commit to us. I have heard CGM is not organized. Dang, you have me not sleeping. After watching Memphis play Ole Miss today, I am feeling bad we won't have a chance to bring their coach to AU and he looks like the next great thing.

Well, you should read my post again. You do not always have to blitz. You do have to give QBs something to think about though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
