Auburn4life 24 Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 How does it feel to know Auburn can't win a national championship this year? "It's dreadful," Marshall said. The fans agree too. wonder if this is why the team was down for the GA game. The players can't focus on this. They must focus on the next weeks opponent.

TigerOne 1,148 Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 I would be surprised if Auburn beats Samford by more than 14-17 points. Not because of our issues but because of the respect Gus has for Coach Sullivan. This game is about the seniors and Pat Sullivan not the score.

Not because of our issues but because of the respect Gus has for Coach Sullivan. This game is about the seniors and Pat Sullivan not the score. It would be an injustice to this team if the coaches don't try and improve, meaning a score north of 42 points. Now if you're saying you think Samford can score 28, I understand.

3rdgeneration 6,469 Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 Is Coach Sullivan's health okay right now? I had heard rumors that it was declining. I hope and pray that's not the case. He is such a great Auburn man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gulftiger66 166 Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 I think the score will reflect how hard the Auburn players want to play, not the coaches trying to hit big plays. There may be a couple of impact plays early but after that that it will be all CAP, Roc, Corey & Co. When JJ gets in I would expect him to throw a few short passes but let the RBs do the work. The score will only be lopsided if the players are ready to have a big game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

war eagle6 0 Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 I won't, I'll be disappointed though. I'm tired of not seeing AU defense year in and year out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I must remind myself of Gus' sucess and hope he has a grasp of the situation. I just hate to see back to back ELITE offensive teams that don't even have mediocre defense to lean on.
