Dual-Threat Rigby

The only time Saban really gets in his own way is against Gus though. You rarely see him just make outright bad decisions. Now ofc, that could just be from out-talenting most teams, but either way, he rides his philosophy out until it doesn’t work then changes. If Gus had the ability, we’d at least have 2 playoff appearances and MAYBE a ranked bowl win in the past 5 years

The guy lost to a true freshman QB who played awfully against LTech at home...this same team lost 59-0 to UA. And followed that loss with getting almost skunked by a pretty mediocre UGA team. In fact he didnt win another game against a P5 team for that season Gus just has a really bad track record in big games

its crazy how most articles that do these coaching rankings have Gus outside of the top 15 and closer to the 20s (if not there) while Auburn based on merit and talent alone consistently gets ranked top 10 makes you wonder

IDK if its possible to consider NCM overrated. Like its literally impossible to think of him as so. Gus is just awful at using receivers there's no other alternative

He never really got the running game chugging consistently and the OL’s drop off probably was a huge reason why. I felt like they should’ve tried to run some creative sets to get it going other than pseudo read option five up the middle

I’d take a loss to UA but another UGA L in Athens would hurt

Losing to that A&M team here should put every game he ever coaches in doubt, but I’m an optimist

Toughest competition is LSU who should be outside the top 15. The drop off after them is gigantic (A&M)....after them WOW 7-0 should be a formality honestly

I wish Auburn was a bigger city and campus. Because the personnel always has such Grand ideas but constraints usually end up coming back to size I feel (there CERTAINLY aren’t financial issues)

well if you got an offense that only has like 3 routes, you're just wasting time teaching the kids any intricacies

I might have to call an audible on getting tickets to that, especially if the student section is as abysmal as it was last year we better win by 30+ man. After the embarrassment of that last game, I know they'll have this one circled

Hope Harper works on his mid range

I didnt even know this was supposed to be a tropical storm until someone told me lol

I wonder if theres a contingency that still prefers Lane over Malzahn. I certainly wanted him as an OC here couple years back but he wouldve likely had little to no control and there would've been an ego clash

At least count the one in 2004. SOMEONE has to count the one in 2004. And it cant be USC or the team that lost by 40
