MylesJBryant 23 Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 I wouldn't give up on your interior oline yet. Media has been overselling the impact of Vita Veas loss. He had freaky speed in the middle and better at finishing plays but our current starters have always gotten more consistent presure. No one mentions how Vita was Greg Gaines backup in 2016.

So, he was practically predicting they would lose with all 5 of their Derwin James caliber DBs? Kept my prediction in the prediction thread. Was spot on. Maybe I was wrong about the Derwin James comparison, They are more of the Earl Thomas types. Either way you should be feeling good about beating them.

I have no doubt Washington will win the pac 12. USC looked alright today . The true freshman made some plays but I don’t know who will stand in y’all way . I am not sold on Oregon even though they had a solid game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also can’t see them getting challenged in the SEC-East. UTenn is physical , but they just don’t have the talent. Same thing with USCe. Hopefully LSU and UF does something... its actually laughable how long its taken UGA to contend in the East...they essentially had to wait until USC, UF and Missouri completely died out to contend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good approach to have. I used to be more of a half empty kind of guy in just about anything. I met my wife and through her example she taught me not to worry so much whether the glass is half empty or half full. Be grateful for the glass itself. It will be full sometimes and empty at others but that's okay. It's just great being an Auburn Tiger, period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, I kind of love that we went for it twice and when we went for it on 4th and 1 (which worked if I recall correctly). Disclaimer: I love when we play gutsy. Disclaimer 2: I have zero coaching experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Browning is a stud competitor and tough as nails. I’m glad we dont face him again. Sports fans are ridiculous now, including us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably not but you're in the minority. Since the second time was dictated by the first then no on the second one. The first one was just pointless (no pun intended). Big game, big stage and you ARE a big-time program. I see why the second tier teams do that but you have to kick the extra point in that situation if you're Auburn playing Washington. Opening drive, you got what you wanted and there is no sense giving them a hint of momentum there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He, like the other backs, were having a hard time finding a hole to run through. The UW Dline was very good and our OLine still has a ways to go. I'm OK with him getting the ball occasionally in short yardage situations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. I liked the aggressiveness and surprise element but the play call on the first one made no sense. You have one blocker in the middle where the defense is and you run up the middle. The second TPC was because the first one failed. Knowing Gus, I'll be surprised to see it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That leave 7 for 18yds. That's 2.5 ypc. I enjoyed the toughness he showed on his TD run, but the other 7 left me wanting substantially more. I thought Worm looked really good in his 1 run. Planted his foot in the dirt, got up field with a quickness and finished his run with authority. I'm not sure how his blocking looks, but I look forward to seeing more of him.

AUBwins 10,075 Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 Btw, I loved the fake kneel/Woody play. If Ryan was a little more patient, I think he gets a lot further or even House Call. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
