doverstutts 1,643 Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 i suspect that we will be the 3rd best program in the state next year, depending on troy.....it could actually be 4th if troy continues as they are Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaitlandTiger 325 Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 I am getting older, and I can tell you one thing about life, you cannot predict it very often. NOT ONE SINGLE HUMAN ON GOD’S GREEN EARTH PICKED AUBURN TO GO TO THE NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP IN 2013. Not after the 2012 dumpster fire. Think about this—-an offensive line that has valuable experience and showed late season marked improvement, returning defensive backs got experience and the freshmen did too. While less heralded than this years seniors and juniors, the freshmen receivers show great promise and better hands. Boobie and Shaun got experience and look good. Losing great LBs but have talent returning there and DL. Yes, we need a QB and it remains to be seen who will get the nod—-nothing to suggest there is a star QB on our roster, but maybe there is. It MIGHT be better than anyone thinks. Say what you want to about Gus, but when he is good he is really, really good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randman5000 4,226 Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 Agreed. 5-7 or 6-6. However if Gus as his own playcaller squeaks out 8-9 wins, does Auburn keep him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do we struggle early but look like we at least have an offensive identity, get better as the season goes on, and then close strong with respectable performances in Amen Corner and a bowl win? That I could live with. Another team that regularly looks completely lost and unprepared, doesn't improve as the season goes on, and gets dragged by our 2 main rivals again?

Turd Ferguson 38 Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 You people obviously have not been Auburn people very long. Don't you realize that anytime the expectations for this team are dismal, we always have a 9-10+ win season? 2000, 2004, 2010, 2013, 2017...I mean come on. There is a pattern here. So flame away with your 6-6 predictions. It makes me cautiously optimistic of a big season. Unfortunately, as much fun as it would be, a big season means the Gus Bus rolls on through 2020. It's your typical "rock/hard place scenario" if you are on the #FireGus bandwagon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shabby 1,956 Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 I have a weird feeling Auburn is gonna have a pretty good season. 8 wins or better. I think the offensive line plan, and running game will be much improved. I just don't know what our answer at qb will be, but quite frankly i don't think we are replacing a qb that was anything more than average.

(Very skeptical it did--it literally makes no sense...if we were either planning on firing him or doing nothing if he didn't accept it, well, it literally would've made no difference!
