    Is Auburn really that much better than last season?

    What's funny is that the wins over Miss State and WVU were the reasons they gave for thinking Auburn had no chance and that our offense was "fluff". If Crompton can manage to be at least adequate for 2 or 3 quarters, and good for at least 1 quarter, Tennessee can hang with and beat anyone...

    Is Auburn really that much better than last season?

    I hope you're right, but if our defensive line can't get pressure on Mallett with our front four, we'll have to score 50 to win. Of course, we may score 50, their defense isn't very good. But at the same time, I figure they are probably getting better after facing Georgia, Alabama, and even...

    Ala. Sports Ed. comments on JC

    I don't think a coach worthy of controlling a top program ever thinks like that. A coach is worried about what he has to do to win the next game on his schedule. Whoever gives him the best chance to win "today's" game plays. That may change at 2-8 or 1-9 in a season, but when you're 2-2, 3-4...

    Is Auburn really that much better than last season?

    Sure, happy. Your in-depth analysis has me convinced. By the way, I wasn't really interested in where we rank in the teams you've played. I was curious to know if anyone's mind had changed about what they thought of us going into the game verses their thoughts coming out of the game.

    Malzahn tells how he mastered Monte's defense

    The thing is, this is exactly our situation too. Coming in, we have a good starting OL, after that, we're screwed, no depth whatsoever. Our leading receiver right now had 3 CATCHES last year. Coming in, we had nothing at the WR position. And I already noted Todd's stats from last year...

    Malzahn tells how he mastered Monte's defense

    I can't believe these poll results. Look at Malzahn's history. He won 10 games at Arkansas with McFadden and Felix Jones, but they had freaking Casey Dick and Mitch Mustain at QB. So they averaged 155 yards passing and led the SEC at almost 230 yards rushing...and that was with a truncated...

    Is Auburn really that much better than last season?

    Did you miss the part where some of the Vol jackasses from last week INVITED us to come back after the game. I was coming back win or lose. I named quite a few ways I thought UT might win the game. Had they happened, I was coming back to say "I thought maybe that would happen". I...

    Even the local media is laughing

    I know it's too late now, but when Auburn's coaches had limited time to decide between 3 guys, they actually ran split practices (doubling the coaches work), but it also gave double the available reps for evaluation. Instead of a #1 guy taking reps, and a #2 guy standing there watching, there...

    Is Auburn really that much better than last season?

    Barn animals? See, this is what's humorous. Most of the Auburn fans that came on here actually BEGAN civil conversation, or at least attempted to, about the upcoming game. I have quite a few posts that were actually discussing what Tennessee might do to win the game. Our offense and our...

    Wisdom from a friend of mine (Auburn fan)

    Exactly. We have some talent, but no more than Tennessee. Look back at recruiting rankings for the last 5 years, but more importantly look at how many of those guys are actually on campus. Auburn came into the season with only 75 guys on scholarship....TEN under the maximum. The reason is...

    Malzahn tells how he mastered Monte's defense

    To say Malzahn "mastered" the Kiffin defense is ridiculous. Just like he said in the interview, he just ran his offense. He had a few things he wanted to try, but he didn't do anything crazy specifically for Kiffin's defense. However, all you guys making excuses need to just take it for what...

    Vols fans bashing Vols fans thread (merged)

    You should be ashamed. What if that last FG was blocked and returned for a TD? Anything can happen in a game. And to complain about UT being embarrassing (?), that's just sad. Have some freaking pride. At Auburn, people are proud of Auburn University, not just proud of the score at the...

    ESPN - Berry OFF Heisman list

    Top 2 player in all of college football? That's a pretty big claim. I would argue that he's actually the second best safety in all of football....to Taylor Mays of USC. Sure, they are both head and shoulders above all other safeties and are both first round NFL picks, but top 2 in all of...

    Even the local media is laughing

    I don't think "the state of the program" is nearly as bad as you seem to think it is. You don't have a QB, plain and simple. Outside of that fact, the rest of the "program" doesn't seem in bad shape....at least not from the outside. They need to start Stephens for 2 or 3 games. Even though...

    ESPN - Berry OFF Heisman list

    I don't think he meant "leads the team", he meant leads the SEC. And look, I'm not here to take all kinds of cheap shots, I thought the article was funny, I hadn't seen any of that Heisman stuff for Berry. And go back and read my posts from last week. I spent all week taking shots at our...
