"It shouldn't have even been that close. Fire Jay Jacobs" -Unrealistic Auburn Fan

Without an apples to apples comparison, his stats are worthless. You say the point's the same regardless of including 2013, then why not include it? And overall winning percentage ISN'T what's important to Auburn fans, it's what's happening now and where's it likely to go. THAT'S why Chizik got fired. And by that measure, Gus is so far ahead of Chizik (I don't recall Chizik getting to the Sugar Bowl in 2012), the two coaches aren't even comparable.

This is the most (i.e. only) intellectually dishonest thing I've ever seen StatTiger publish. For years, people have cherry-picked Chizk's worst years, and omitted 2010 because it suited their argument. Now, StatTiger has done the same with Gus by omitting 2013, a season that is just as legitimate as any other in his time at Auburn, while conveniently including Chizik's best year in a sad attempt to make Gus's record seem worse than Chizik's. His use of truncated statistics to serve an agenda is shameful, and it makes me think less of him as a writer and analyst. Until that paragraph, I have always appreciated StatTiger's objectivity, but I now feel betrayed. He needs to reconsider if he truly stands behind that paragraph because it is not up to the standards of his years-worth of quality work.
