i'm going through this thread over Sat morning coffee (not much time during the week), and I know I am late to the game, but to answer Bruin's original question.

"Who was the best replacement ever after a coach bolted to greener pastures?"

.....Chris Peterson replacing Dan Hawkins at Boise State 2006.

It was a great one that's for sure.

Yep. Thought about it. I said if they had a better DL, they could have won. I also said that they legitimately had 4 chances to win the game anyway. I am not going to keep discussing this. If you can't realize that Bama still should have win the game, I can't help you.

No, I was born in GA, my parents went to high school near Knoxville. Grew up listening to the Vols (John Ward). Been up here too long. 2° this morning. Knew you were messing with me. It's all good.

Please don't talk about very winnable games at this stage...we were 300% sure that Mizzou and Auburn would be too... More than likely Utah State will end up competing for one of the bowl games this coming season bc they're on our schedule. Lol

I am optimistic about next season. Not crazy we win it all optimistic.

Butch is bringing in playmakers.

You are setting yourself up to be pissed off imo with that expectation. Breaking in a whole new OL is going to screw things up. The year after is when I will be expecting some major improvement. We will be lucky to win 6 next year again. Butch is definitely bringin in the studs, but they will still be true Freshmen. If we win 8....Butch will win coach of the year. :good!:

Is there any interest for a World Cup preview thread in this forum? I don't post in other forums, so I have no desire to do it anywhere else. Lemme know what you all think.

Haha. Nope. I hate Bama to the core. But Auburn's system is not that difficult. You have great athletes running it. If you can disrupt the run with great DL play and make Marshall pass, you can beat them. I am not saying it's easy because it isn't. But it's called strategy and trying to take away the other team's strength. Bama didn't do it all that well, but they did it well enough to win. They had 4 offensive chances to win. Heck, you guys didn't have to throw against us in the 2nd half. Our front 7 couldn't do anything so you didn't have to. Again, it's not difficult (strategy). It's difficult if you don't have the players. JMO.

Same thing used to be said about Spurrier system at Florida in the 90's. "Not that difficult". For years he was hardly ever slowed down. Malzahn is gifted. It might be the same three plays over and over but coaching it to precision is the true genius.

The only time I've probably ever agreed with something Nick Saban said

@CollegeGameDay: "If Auburn wins I think they should be in the BCS Championship game," - Nick Saban
