***Auburn vs. Mississippi State -- Game Thread***

[auburn4ever 1,266]

Your up 18 and you just held MSU on a 4th down play. What does Malzahn call 2 freakin run plays right up the middle. And on that 2nd run play lay in on the ground and State recovers at around AU's 40. Gus, love your play calling.

Martin and miller time

Or as Gus says, KJ time or bust! Lol

[JDUBB4AU 5,121]

Gotta close . Coffee is for closers 

[ClaytonAU 4,606]

Our offense hasn’t looked bad imo 

[Auctoritas 2,828]

Yeah, our run game is disappointing to say the least. I think it will come along - as Stat had said in a post a couple of weeks ago, they changed to zone blocking. If thats the case, that means not only do the OL have to get used to it, but the RBs are seeing things they aren't used to as well. Not a fan of screwing up what was working well.

I hope our d doesn't get tired. Been out there for almost 25 minutes already. O needs a long drive time wise

[WarEagleHunter1221 1,690]

Ok seriously, we joke about Martin but is there word on whether he is actually hurt or is just riding the bench? Seriously I loved Pettway last season but he has nothing in him this season due to possibly injury of whatever reason. Why are we putting him out there at all? Even if both are hurt Miller is not and he’s a good between the tackles kind of guy. Jesus just get a capable back out there.

It actually Chip that called those plays, but since he is a hand picked Gus-guy like Kodi, I get your drift.

Pettway's 30% at best in my mind. That kind of injury though he has to be telling the coaches. His pride is probably keeping him from telling them how bad it's hurting.

[CountStandya 81]

I think Pettway is in the dog house. Seems his mind is elsewhere

[MaxP 137]

Pettway needs to sit until fully healthy.

Somewhere between bad and good definitely 

[AUinfusion 390]

So is Gus still messing with the offense? Run, run, pass, punt is Gus ball. We are keeping an inferior team in the game. We should be passing to set up the run, not grinding out tough runs every 1st and 2nd down.

[WFE12 9,191]

At some point you gotta show confidence in barrett and run him and not just on obvious swing passes! 

[The Freak 2,528]

What's better than running out the clock?  

 

 

Oh yeah... touchdowns.

[WarTiger 3,901]

4th quarter begins.    and its 4th down

Not good enough. Tired of being curb stomped by Bama. 

[j0hnnyRingo 1,445]

Great play by Davis.

[AUIH1 1,515]

MSU gifting us.

[OnthePlains 2,014]

Give credit to Carlton Davis there, nice play to stop the 4th down conversion. 

[DAG 33,983]

Our DB coach doing work

[WarTiger 3,901]

wow. thought that was a 1st down...but he never caught it.  Auburn takes over on downs AGAIN and with great field position.

It can't be both ways. Chip is getting credit when plays work and Gus when they don't. 

[johnnyAU 3,630]

Again no Miller, but Pettway puts it on turf

Bama on your mind and it’s only week 5? A shame I only see you on gameday.
