When CBM first got thrown out of the game , my first thought was "How juvenile, this could cost AU this game". I then thought about myself at that age. I got tossed from a football game and baseball game in the same year in high school. May be the record still today. A lot of emotion, adrenaline and testosterone running through you at that age. No need for us to be down on him

Now we know what Aaron Rodgers will look like when he gets older.

No matter the institution, organization, school or whatever, if they are living off donations, they never have enough. It is how they continue to operate. Can you imagine if your local church tells it members " we have made our budget for the year" and only 9 months into the year, then donations cease for that year and will be reduced for following year. I don't imagine Ohio State and LSU are telling their fanbase that they have enough NIL money. I am sure they are still begging also.

I liked AU football in the mid sixties as a kid, but Terry Beasley and Pat Sullivan were why I LOVED Auburn football and Auburn.

He is not the best kicker in the league for sure. Depending on whatever metric you (attempts, makes, length) he does not lead in any category. UGA kicker had more attempts, more makes and higher percentage.

Lots of assumptions here and I won’tcomment on them except the last sentence. These are not first year coaches. They have coached at this level before. They have been in pressure situations before. They should have performed better. With the exception of Harsin, you could see and feel AU teams get better in the first year of Dye, Bowden, Tubervillle, Chizek and Malzhan. That’s what avid football fans see.

I think C is being generous. I would grade him C- to D. The complete lack of preparation for the NMSU game and the rushing of 2 men (before the play , everyone in the stands around me said the same thing; put pressure on the QB. Do not give him time to find an open man) indicates to me that this staff is below average for this level of football. This team would have the opportunity to play for their 9th win in a bowl game if we would have had decent coaching this year. That would have been huge. But now, we have the possibility of a losing season. I was very much pleased with Freeze hiring initially, but I have been severely disappointed over the year. No real improvement on the offense from game 1. We are still a terrible passing team. There was a thread a few weeks ago about wanting players on your team that know how to win vs more talented players. That same thought can apply to coaches and right now we have coaches that do not know how to win.

Hear about the UA players out hunting and came to an unfortunate end. They were following some tracks and got hit by a train.

We were fortunate to play vandy this year. Ever other east team beats us. After yesterday you don’t think this years team is any better than last year

Back to the Birmingham bowl

Wow. I know there was bad games under Harsin and 2012, but this ranks up there as one of the worst. Complete failure in every phase of the game.

Game over

So no first downs for us in 3rd quarte

Just at a loss of words

Well Al least that takes all the BS talk about beating Alabama off the table
