Grumps 3,706 Posted November 6, 2022 Share Posted November 6, 2022 If we had a kicker that could kick a touchback we would have a W tonight and a Natty in 2013. Oh well. War Eagle anyway!!! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People that make these types of comments owe it to the players to stop following the sport. It's not just the missed FG. His leg is so bad that he can't even kick into the endzone. That resulted in a kick off return for a TD and then a long return on the last drive of regulation. If your kicker's leg is not even good enough to do that then he shouldn't be the kicker, IMO. We signed the #1 kicker and he should be getting a shot especially now that he wouldn't even burn his redshirt if he played every game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jabo 36 Posted November 6, 2022 Share Posted November 6, 2022 That’s the most fight I’ve seen in an Auburn team in a while. I was really hoping CCW walked away with his first win tonight. Hell of a game!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just like any other player we’ve benched this year we owe it to the team to try someone else. Great kid but not even a decent kicker anymore.

If you are costing your team points and W's and there's a better option then that option should get to play. I'm 100% certain our freshman kicker could kick the ball out of the endzone so our defense wouldn't have horrible field position all the time. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiger 8,864 Posted November 6, 2022 Share Posted November 6, 2022 (edited) Felt excited watching a game again, so that was a plus. Really wanted that one for Coach Lac That PI at the end changed everything. He could've been Gumby and still not caught that. Special teams blunders really screwed us despite having some big swing plays like when the Miss State punter bobbled the snap, they had more in their favor. Robby played his heart out but has obvious limitations OL sucks and has sucked but I hate Troxel got hurt again. His career is officially over. I'm excited to see how Week 2 under Caddy goes Edited November 6, 2022 by Tiger 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

au701948 1,080 Posted November 6, 2022 Share Posted November 6, 2022 I am sure we all wanted a better ending, but I have not been this proud of our AU Team since the start of last season. Great effort against all kinds of adversity. You never can beat the refs in a situation like this, but the Auburn Team showed me what it means to love Auburn.

tgrogan21 6,198 Posted November 6, 2022 Share Posted November 6, 2022 Everything Coach Caddy has been saying is gold but this stood out to me. This is the demeanor of a Head Coach. He might not have the experience but damn if people wouldn't want to play for a guy like him. 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigers77 281 Posted November 6, 2022 Share Posted November 6, 2022 Given the circumstances, I think it’s pretty damn remarkable what this staff did in basically 3 days. Took a downtrodden team on the road to a tough environment against an SEC foe with a winning record. Fell behind and then fought their ever loving asses off and nearly won it. I’ve had enough of being negative but if others feel that need more power to you. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's probably a good reason the freshman isn't playing. This season is not a disaster because of our kicker. He's not the reason we lost the game tonight. All this talk is just idiotic.

au701948 1,080 Posted November 6, 2022 Share Posted November 6, 2022 Losing is not ever fun particularly. However, this game showed more character and genuine effort than anything I saw under Harsin since his first day. JMO 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
