WFE12 9,192 Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 I know we just won and I'm so glad but this needs to be addressed like the numbers on the house. If Corn got the boot for what happened with the receivers than what's happening to the special teams guy. That was absolutely asinine. I don't even trust a long return anymore. I just wait for a flag to be thrown. Not one but two delay of game penalties on FGs too. That's the most stupid way to get a delay of game. I don't want this to cost us in the future. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weagl1 1,793 Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 There is no use in trying to return the ball on a kickoff we are just going to get a holding penalty. It happens every time. Awful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbo 8,113 Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 No offense to you, but I don't understand this reaction after this game. Can't enjoy it for a minute? The kick return unit sucked tonight. But it's not a pattern. Special teams saved the Ga State game. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest MustardSeed Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 It’s a very real possibility Anders gets beat out by a true freshman next year. Our K recruit is unreal. Friday alone he made a 40+ yarder, a 52, 55 and a 61 yarder. In one game. Oh and broke the state record for longest fg. Not sure I’d want to be Anders this fall. He’s slipped some this year. Not sure if that’s coaching or what but he hasn’t been the better Carlson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
au302 2,669 Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 Respectfully, what a terrible take. Special teams was atrocious tonight. I'm with you on that. But the receivers were a consistently bad from the time Harsin was hired until two weeks ago. Harsin was always complaining in his press conferences. If this becomes a pattern, then sure, re-evaluate in the offseason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He will be kicking the ball 70+ yards before his Auburn career is finished. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oracle79 3,569 Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 Carlson won't be back I don't think. Our punt returns have been horrendous for years. Just put someone back there that can catch a punt before it hits the ground 100% of the time. We've blocked FG's/Xp and punts so great job there. I hope no one ever returns a kick or punt against us, because it scares me. I hope we never return a punt or kick off against another team because it scares me.

AUpreacherman22 3,908 Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 Speaking of Special Teams, Oscar Chapman is a weapon!!!! He has turned into a very good punter!!! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How would you know if someone is going to catch it 100% if the time. The guy that muffed tonight is our most experienced guy. They are not clairvoyant.

Kicker is by far the hardest position to make it to the NFL and if you look at the numbers he’s not currently in the top 10 in the NCAA…so he’s gonna have a real hard time making it. Can he? Sure. Will he? Not extremely likely. And everyone being rude about him being done isn’t answering about the extra Covid year. Strange. Maybe it doesn’t apply to him 🤷♂️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or keep changing returners until I found one that could. 0 would be done for me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slyinsocal 831 Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 (edited) With this coaching staff? One bad game, and it really was, is not a trend. In a game in which we won by double digits against #10. And Chapman is doing a fantastic job. Edited October 31, 2021 by slyinsocal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
