  1. Much akin to Saban getting rules changed related to HUNH offenses. “Is this what we want the game to look like?” Give me a break!
  2. No. I was simply putting that out there because 83 had already been covered. After seeing the product that Oklahoma put on the field in the Orange Bowl 2004 was definitely an injustice.
  3. I’m surprised this hasn’t been mentioned. I saw where Mike “Captain Crunch” Kolen passed away at the age of 76. He was an AU great and also a starter on the “No Name” Miami Dolphins defense when they went 17-0.
  4. The 2004 Auburn team not being able to play for a national championship.
  5. I coached Stutts when he was in high school. I’m so stinking proud of that guy!
  6. This was the beautiful sky as we hit the practice field in Killen this morning! 62 degrees was the temperature!
  7. No doubt. He was a major part of the heartbeat of the team
  8. Has anyone mentioned Quentin Riggins? I believe there was a stat mentioned on him once that he made a tackle every 3 1/2 plays
  9. I am pretty confident in saying that was the 1970 Iron Bowl where they were down 17-0 and came back to beat Bama
  10. Two other guys I wanna mention. Tony Richardson: classic Fullback, huge part of the 93 team, great NFL career! Anthony Harris: quietly one of the most consistent and toughest AU Linebackers ever. 3 year starter. I think it was him that made the 4th down stop at Vandy that preserved the 14-10 win in 1993. He also had a huge game in the Iron Bowl that year.
  11. He also got knocked out by Spencer Hammond in the 88 Iron Bowl. He came back in and ripped off a 25 yard run on Auburn’s only TD drive of the game.
  12. You beat me to Stacy Danley. Bama killer and the dude got knocked cold in two different games then came back in and played meaningful roles in both games. They don’t make ‘em tough like that anymore!
  13. I say the OL that year deserves a TON of credit. That is one of the best O lines in AU history.
  14. I’ll add a play to that. Ricardo Louis dropped a potential TD on the first possession of the game. It at least would have put them in FG range.
  15. You’ll never again see a Senior class that came in as Freshmen and bonded into a “family” and led the program to unprecedented heights. (i.e. 1983, 1988, 1993, 1997, 2004, 2010, etc.)
  16. I vividly remember sitting in the stands before the game my wife, knowing we had Cam, asked me “Does Georgia have any good players?” I pointed at A.J. Greene and said #8 right there is a great WR. Little did I know he was going to go off and have us down 21-7. Thankfully Cam got us going and Chizik had the guts to call the onside kick.
  17. Think about the 86 team. They lost 2 games. A one point loss at Florida and a 4 point loss at home to UGA in a game where Brent Fullwood was whistled dead on what should have been a TD run. I believe if the 88 team had won the LSU game they probably would have matched them and ND up in the Sugar Bowl for the title. The offensive woes during that time are still a head scratcher. They had some great weapons to work with, and just were stagnant a lot of times in the big games.
  18. Let’s be real. Free throw shooting has been an issue for a while. The 2019 team probably wins the whole thing if they shoot better at the free throw line. The Virginia game should have never came down to the end if they made FTs down the stretch
  19. For real. IQ tells you to stop challenging their big guy down low when he is throwing everything you put up out of there.
  20. My son is an 8th grader and I am always harping on him about practicing free throws and layups
  21. Collis actually started out at the school I graduated from before moving to Coffee. He was a couple of years behind my father there.
  22. Yes. Yellow Jackets. Collis Campbell came out of there.
  23. My wife and her whole family are Coffee grads. Goes all the way back to the 1940s.
  24. 😂😂. We bought it when we were 19 (shhhhhh) from G.W.’s on the right just after you cross the state line.
