W.E.D 11,070 Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 If their IOL is as weak as proclaimed, I can't help but seeing Harris, Walker, and Wooten having a massive day especially in passing downs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we can run we'll win if not and we have to be in 3 rd and longs we'll lose. True. If Bo has to wing it a lot to win, we won't. He needs a complimentary running game to make his passing game effective. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMO, One of the things that leans in our favor is the fact that their IOL is weak and just not very good. Our DL and blitz packages should create a lot of opportunities. I think we create enough pressure up front to control the game. imma gonna need golfes stamp of approval on this bird. nothing personal........ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deceptively fast, but our OC has seemed to make it a point to not have him use his legs as much. He had a 60+ yard run last week. As far as the RB’s go we too use rotation and all 4 of our guys who have gotten touches are high caliber. Cain(21) is our starter and is gonna grind yards. Somehow never loses yards and always falls forward. He’ll get majority of 4th quarter snaps in close games. Doesn’t go down to arm tackles. Our receiver to watch is Jahan Dotson. He’s a threat in space and hard to tackle. If he’s in single coverage he’s gonna get open, it’s a matter of can Cliff hit him in stride on time. Really excited for the game and best of luck! i really love your class!i hope it is a fun game and no one gets hurt. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering it's in Happy Valley and the line is only 5 it looks like it could go either way. I hope we pull it out...(that's what she said) but I wouldn't be surprised either way. If you're going to the game pick up some ice cream at the Creamery and a grilled sticky bun downtown.

Win4AU 4,045 Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 Ground and pound and take the crowd out of the game. One of the most jacked up Auburn games I've been to was against Clemson in 2010. After their first couple drives our fans were not that loud except on 3rd downs. Slow methodical beating. If Auburn gets up by 2 scores early, the game may become a lot more manageable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harsin, Mason, and Bobo have all been around long enough, and have coached in enough hostile environments that we shouldn't go up there and have a total meltdown like we did every year in Athens during the previous regime. I'm concerned about Bo on the road and our OL play, but I'm confident that our defense will will play very well. I think Penn State will come out hot and it will be rocking at Happy Valley, so taking their first few punches and staying composed will be key. This. I am very concerned with our Oline getting run fits for Tank and protection for Bo. Also worried about Bo's bad habits and mechanical breakdowns rearing their head if he starts to feel pressure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AuburnTiger4Life 2,225 Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 As some have mentioned, I think the staff will turn Bo loose a bit more this weekend. There were a few times last weekend where he could’ve gotten a big gain if he chose to run, but I’m sure the staff didn’t want to risk him getting hit in those games. I think we will give Bo some easy throws to start off with, which will help Tank and Hunter get going. Expect Bo to take a few shots downfield if we can effectively run the ball the way Wisconsin did. But I don’t think it will be four verticals all game like we had with Gus.

Caldavis 58 Posted September 14, 2021 Share Posted September 14, 2021 8 hours ago, steeleagle said: I think Franklin is a pretty good coach. He took over a NCAA sanctioned team with a ton of scholarship reductions, and eventually he has won 10+ games at least 3 times. No, he has not won the conference, but I think tied once. I think the one area he has not recruited well is at QB, and that is where they have struggled. I like Harsin a lot, but he's only been a good coach in a league that can't compete top to bottom with the big leagues. Harsin now has to show he is a good coach at this level now. I think he can, but proof will be in results. Franklin won the conference in 2016, beat OSU and beat Wisconsin in the title game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't want to assume he isn't vaxxed but if he was you would think he would have been cleared to play by Saturday. Hopefully, that isn't the case and something else is prolonging it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup, I remember when everyone outside of us were picking the 3-0 Freshman-led Vawls and their 110K fans to overwhelm 4-0 Auburn. Then Ronnie Brown became that "train coming.

Thanks I'm not sure why you are obsessing over UGA. The last time we beat UGA was the same year you last beat OSU, 2017. In case you forgot about that 2017 season, Auburn beat both UGA and Bama....both ended up playing in the National Championship. It's heartbreaking hearing you come in talking about "facts" but refuse to do your homework to know what you are actually talking about. Then when real facts are pointed out that disproves your takes, you resort to name calling. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
