AURealist 2,185 Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 If the PTB at AU cared at all if the fans tuned in, they wouldn't be letting this trainwreck continue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
auburn4ever 1,266 Posted November 29, 2020 Share Posted November 29, 2020 You just answered your own question. The PTB don't give a crap about the Auburn family or the football program. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AUFriction 1,179 Posted November 29, 2020 Share Posted November 29, 2020 Dear random poster, If the iron bowl result has at all influenced your opinion on this coaching staff, you’ve had your head under a rock all year. This is possibly the best team they’ve ever fielded, and they’ve won every game this year by double digits. I think they even beat UGA by this margin, and their defense was still trying to figure itself out at the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AURex 1,990 Posted November 29, 2020 Share Posted November 29, 2020 IMO, This game today was embarrassing. However, this game will NOT cause the PTB to fire Gus. Why? The PTB will look at this loss and say, "Gus is 2-2 against Bama over the past 4 years. That's a better record than any team in the country vs Bama. Better than ANY other team against a bona fide dynasty." And Gus will still have Auburn in the middle of the pack in the SEC, year after year, so people will still watch their team play against Auburn, hoping for a win and knowing it is not automatic. It is losses to teams like USCe and TN and the Mississippi schools that will cause the PTB headaches. But even those kinds of losses will not affect TV viewers. Why? Because they will know that Auburn can occasionally pull out the upset, but also that their team might have a chance to upset Auburn. So, IMO, your entire premise is completely off kilter.

aubaseball 2,588 Posted November 29, 2020 Share Posted November 29, 2020 Dear everyone, If you are watching Auburn play this year, you surely can see that it’s a poorly coached team. And if there aren’t better coaches out there than what is currently on the sidelines, you aren’t being truthful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aubaseball 2,588 Posted November 29, 2020 Share Posted November 29, 2020 AuRex, you might have the right view, but it’s the PTB that got Auburn in this position in the first place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And quite honestly, I agree with you. Yes, it is depressing. As an Auburn fan, it is not my happy place. It's not what I HOPE for Auburn football in the future. But I think it is an honest assessment of where we are right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Checked the score few times, on the phone, saw all I needed to see. 7-0. 14-0. 21-3., etc... pass. ( So damn tired of seeing FG's being put up when we need TD.'s No matter what game it is, Gus turns 6's into 3's better than anyone ) AU scored 48 last year vs bama, ( that's 35 more points than this year ) ,held serve and was able to win @ JSH , yet again, But on the road ? Forget it. 13 useless points. Yeah, AU had some players out or hurt, but so did bama. The programs are worlds apart. And everyone knows it.

My thought is that AU will have to replace Gus following the 2021 season. May not make AU better but change will be necessary to energize the fans ,advance offense and bring in top recruits . Look at MR firing at Ga several years ago .Gus is done unless a AU miracle next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
