Clear foul lol what are these commentators talking about

Don't think Lior needs to be on the floor after this TV timeout comes back lol

Tre Donaldson is a true point guard. Love seeing him operate

Virtually every AU men's basketball fan (including me) is still upset with the way that final 4 game ended.  But in fairness, it wasn't UVA's fault...blame rests with the officials.  If the shoe had been on the other foot, we would have gladly taken the W and moved to the finals just like they did.  Sucks, but it is what it is.

No dude it's F Virginia 24/7! PUT IT IN THE CREED

Critical defensive possession here

He did not make the decision.  The conference did.  Know the difference. 

This was from yesterday

Nope, I will continue to talk about it because it was a completely ignorant decision. Who at the SEC made the decision and why? What was their reserach based on? Why did SEC head coaches not have more input on that if that is true? Considering the NFL has been using it for years the decision is completely stupid. Is that the sole reason we are losing? No. But you cannot say it is not one of the reasons we are getting drilled right now either.

 

Lmao exactly. Like this is some new tech from a far and foreign land. Ooooo it may be unsafe 😂😂😂

To me it's more disappointing because the guy leading our program made such a poor decision. 

Does it mean we wouldn't be getting slapped 21-0 right now? Not necessarily but intentionally putting the team at a disadvantage and failing to see that is the worrisome part for me. 

The year the Rams went to the Super Bowl with Jared Goff, word was that Sean Mcvay was getting the play call in as fast as possible so he could literally make Goffs pre snap reads for him before the mic shut off at 15 seconds. 

And with the mic not shutting off.... C'mon

And as @GwillMac6said agreeing to let them use it while we don't was even dumber

Totally agree. I don't understand this decision either. GIven the fact that it never is turned off, unlike the NFL, I cannot see a reason to not use it, especially knowing the other team is choosing to do so, thus given them an obvious advantage over our defense.

Honestly one of the dumbest things I've ever seen. Not even like an in game coaching blunder but a calculated decision. I'm floored

I can kind of see why they elected not to use it.  The team is used to doing it one way all season so it could potentially not be good to change it two or three weeks before the game.  Just my thought.  

So has Maryland. 

It is an insane disadvantage. Look at this during the check with me's. It's a whole process instead of just saying it in 1 second into his ear

The game hinges on this drive right here. Yup with 5 mins left in the 1st quarter here we are

I can't let this helmet radio thing go. You're telling me.... the coaches intentionally opted to be AT A DISADVANTAGE?? 

Like, we want to use sign language instead of speaking directly into the QBs ear. I don't see how any coach would ever consider the NFL way of play calling to be more difficult than the college way of signals. And in this case the mic doesn't shut off lmaoooo I'm too inebriated to wrap my head around this 

The football gods don't want auburn to win this one. Look at that fumble 

So dumb to not utilize the helmet speaker technology. So freaking dumb.

IT DOESN'T TURN OFF

Honestly, all judgement is absolved from any player that left the program during the Harsin era.

Lmao Lior really tried to catch a body there. Hilarious I love the confidence

Kentucky went 10-3 and then 7-4 the second with Levis and no legit hardware to show for it. I have no idea what they paid but I’m not sure I see a return. 

LOL those types of results get you a parade in Lexington my man. Will Levis will probably never have to buy a drink when he visits the bluegrass state putting up 17 wins in 2 years

Maybe "undecided" is a negotiating tactic, because I don't think he's on any NFL Draft boards at this time. 

And to be clear, I'm not one that thinks you have to be regarded as a high round pick to leave early. Sometimes things in life dictate those decisions.

No disrespect but Zion isn't a super sought after prospect that only has something to lose in the bowl game. 

A big game from him next week could earn him some extra cash next year. I hope he balls out

I will literally never step foot in Huntsville for the rest of my life just because of The Next Round

Their hoops fan base is comparable to our football fan base. They take their hoops seriously. That seemed like a fun environment for a neutral site game

Should be a pretty entertaining game. If the defense shows up (which they most likely will), then I'm going with an Auburn win of something along the lines of 31-14.

We only put up 31+ against 2 teams this year. Vandy and Arky. I'd be ecstatic with your score prediction

I think part of it came with trying to make the big play vs just trying to get yards. On the sweep you mentioned, I believe he ended up taking it like 1-2 yards wider than he needed to when he could’ve just cut up the field pretty short on it. 
 

I feel like some of it has to be attributed to the ongoing QB “competition”. He did the same thing on a couple of what little passing attempts he had 

While that's some insight on to why that may have been case it doesn't really excuse it IMO

I thought ashford was pretty horrible tbh as a runner this season. Thorne though not as fast and quick as ashford did a better job of seeing the field and knowing where and when to run.

Robby was making wrong reads all year in the running game man. Super frustrating from the "running" QB 

Robby has really good speed for a quarterback

He did not look so fast running a speed sweep given the opportunity during the Iron Bowl. People think you can just switch a guy to another position, when it just doesn't work like that

The NCAA gave Cliff one of the most unfair shaft jobs ever. If they had been even the least bit reasonable, Cliff might still be coaching Auburn. It was another one of those "OK, we've got to kick somebody, lets do Auburn again" deals.

Honestly ok with it in hindsight because if we don't spin out as a program after the Ellis/NCAA thing Bruce likely never gets here and our ceiling as a program remains where Cliff had it.
