*Official Auburn vs. Penn State Game Thread*

This all started with Gus and continued with Harsin. The OL, a product from Gus and Harsin, is the worst I have seen in a long time. Everyone saw this coming years ago. The QB, all 3 of them, a product from Harsin, is the worst I have seen in a long time. 
we are what we are… terrible.

Whoever is blaming Finley needs to stop it's on the coaches and this damn OL. 😒

TJ isn’t helping at all. Holds on to the ball too long or drops it. He’s not any good. 

[SaltyTiger 7,761]

Still plenty of time for the comeback

Finley has made his fair share of mistakes as well ( first half pic)  This is a team mess with the staff needing to shoulder all the blame . 

[Didba 5,256]

Gus created the bad OL situation and Harsin has not been able to fix it. We can still blame it on Gus bc he is the causation of the problem as a whole.  We can also blame Harsin for not being able to fix it.

 

also, again, me:

Finley has played okay despite the line. 

And despite the INT and Fumble. 

[EastAl_Tiger 225]

passes for 1 yd. smh

[Deutschetiger 41]

Finley should never see the field again.

[NoALtiger 3,849]

Got a little spark going at least. 

[Deutschetiger 41]

Same for most of the 1st team OL

This , but Harsin should have made a better attempt at getting Oline. It’s his mess now

[DAG 33,955]

I am so tired of hearing about Gus. This staff did not do what it needed to do to get the boys ready . They are not the staff to rebuild a program. Nice guys but is what it is. Can’t keep blaming Gus.

No I’m blaming it on BOTH. But it is 100% on Gus for our offensive line sucking because it is a position he failed to recruit for his last 6 years he was here. So yeah Gus sucks and Harsin sucks.

VERY important for people to understand that both truths can exist

Multiple things can be true.  Offensive line play is bad.  Some of the play calls have been bad.  Finley has made bad throws and bad decisions.  But given the known weaknesses at OL, we can't afford to also have poor QB decision making.  Gotta try something.

[tgrogan21 6,198]

I appreciate Finley for having heart and trying his best but with this OL he can't be behind it. Robby can at least escape the pressure and keeps the defense honest with his legs.

I get it but damn he can't do much more then what he is doing. He should throw the damn ball away but really other then that I put this on the damn OL and the coaches. I feel bad for TJ should have stayed at LSU or went somewhere else. 

[SaturdayGT 719]

Come on baby...find something here!!

[NoALtiger 3,849]

Can we not run the option a see what happens? God I can’t stand our playcalling.  

[W.E.D 11,070]

Lol now we call a screen

[keesler 5,922]

These linemen are QB killers.

seriously this is worse than I’ve ever seen

[Dual-Threat Rigby 8,640]

There's some "getting the offense together" things that I feel like Robby needs to improve on a bit (a lot)

The crazy part is this team is doing enough to give the defense a break. Previous defenses were subjected to a lot of 3 and out. Some of them were light speed 

Thought the same thing earlier. Defense is just bad. Not as bad as the offense but nothing to write home about at all. Most these guys would be practice squad elsewhere. 

[GTNupe11 2,033]

So does Harsin "make a change" at Oline coach like he did after the 3rd game last season with the WR coach?

True, what I was meaning though we can't put it all on him. Sorry guys should have clarified.
