Dual-Threat Rigby 9,156 Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 I think you knew coming in that Bo wasn't the best when it comes to throwing as far as your QBs going. I assumed with him winning the job that the offense would be tailored to that. The guy looked fantastic up to 15 yards in the spring game, Gus is gonna have to get past his over the middle phobia if Bo is gonna ever get good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gus is better, don’t know if it was from nearly getting fired or if he finally realized that he had swayed away from his path .

Eagle Eye 7 2,535 Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 I promise at this point I’m more afraid of LSU as to uat or uga. . I think they got a complete team over there.

Bama’s D has definitely shown signs of struggles. I just dont think A&M’s offense is all that good. Bama will score on them. I hope you’re right though! Would love to see the bama meltdown!

Their d has been awful against the pass. The freshman QB at SC lit them up for 300’yards. I thought he must have been good but he hasn’t done that well against others. And it was early in the game against their first string. Mond did well against is but our run defense may be the best in the country so they passed down to the goal line but couldn’t run it in.

Auburn2Eugene 2,317 Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 I REALLY thought that we would get beat. Gus had the guys ready to go from the start. Have to give him credit. Our offense overall is still concerning. The OL did a decent job last night. Nix did some good things but is VERY MUCH still a work in progress. The continued lack of RB rotation is very concerning. But we are 4-0. Not bad when I thought we could just as easily start 2-4 as 6-0. So while there is plenty to still be concerned about, there is also plenty to be excited about so far.

Seems like it’s been ages since we have had this good of a start in football. Life is good for a while at AU. Football only complex coming. FB 4-0 to start, MBB coming off a final four and looks poised to continue. MBaseball contending again.Softball is good I think they will make a run this year. Equestrian coming off national champ. Both golf teams doing well.life is good at AU let’s enjoy it we dang sure deserve it.😁 Ps left out WBB and Gymnastics both looking good.

1716AU 800 Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 I am not a Gus hater, but I am one that deeply believes he should be at a lower division school, and his hire was incredibly nepotistic. One game does not wipe a whole body of seven years work away. The university hired him to bring a high powered offensive brand to Auburn, and he hasn't delivered. Actually, he has done a very poor job in recruiting, roster management, coaching and player development, and only seems to get the message that he is doing poorly when he might lose his job. Any other school would have fired him three years ago, but Auburn's leadership is pretty weak. That being said, I was pleasantly surprised at the outcome and the game plan and offensive play calling yesterday. But the Statue of Liberty play, and it's aftermath, is criminally negligent. That particular play does not work, takes too long to develop, gets blown up every time., and leads to offensive stagnation. There comes a time when an intelligent man would see the folly and try something else, but not Gus. That is why I am not willing to give him the benefit that he has turned the corner. But I will hope he will. He has to prove that to me. I will support the team and Auburn, even tho I graduated from a different school. I hope that this group of young men find success, and that Gus turns it around and brings great success to the Plains. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LSU’s defense has looked outright horrible this year. I’d take Bama’s slightly worse offense and seemingly far better defense (and Saban) as the bigger challenge, even though I think LSU has done more to start this season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The freshman USCe QB got freshman player of the week in the SEC for torch uat’s defense. They’ve played four powder puffs and given up plenty by the way I went back and looked at USCe and in three div 1 games they have lost all 3 but the 390 yards against Bama was more than a hundred yards better than the other two that beat them NC for one so no uat is not very good in defense this year and you stop Tua they are done. On good way to do that is with heights Tua is not tall that’s why he has to move around . I heard the announcers say his brother is like 5’10”.
