Nice drive by Stidham and the offense

Do you disagree? Kam Martin was solely responsible for 2 consecutive pressures. And it was due to his lack of bulk and inability to anchor. The defense was obviously targeted him on the second one and Gus responded appropriately by pulling him. 

So what's your reasoning for the multiple double A gap blitzes? They must be targeting something right?  Must be that OLine that is doing such a fine job.

Said Auburn by 30, need atleast 2 more TD's

[TAYLORKEETON 800]

Is the game still not on DTV??

[Farmer Brown 2,391]

Come on Bird, give us more comments. I like a comment that has some insight into the game.

Kam maybe small but at least he runs hard this offensive line is horrible. They do not have a clue of what their assignments are from play to play.

Please I just want this game to end... and for us to find a new o line and a run game...

[Zeek 16,660]

No one going to say that Stidham underthrew Slayton there?

My question is if you want a big back then why not play Harold Joiner.

Never said that. Just an observation that players with small frames in high school struggle to develop enough physically to become reliable contributors.

Folks...I love everyone....Gus lovers, Gus dislikers, Gus haters...but regardless of what you think the problem/problems are...this is not a top 10 football team right now...and in year 6, there really is no excuse for this. Whether its a scheme issue, a practice issue, an OC issue, a recruiting issue or an internal strife issue...the buck stops with one man. I know some of you think I’m just out to get Gus and want to see him fail...NOTHING could be further from the truth. I want him to succeed and shut me up...but folks, if major changes aren’t made it ain’t happening. And if he gets 9 wins out of this team, it will say more about the SEC than it will Gus...now, please Gus, make me regret this post...

Replace the Guards with their backups and find a new OL coach who can actually recruit.

Yep.. slayton had to wait but he caught it.. better than an overthrow where he has no chance

A winning season isn’t guarenteed I’ll say that much

[aubieclawz 30]

Bird was basically right

Oline will become only more experienced. Kam Martin will always have a small frame.

Agreed, I’ve been harping for weeks he has to get his timing down with them. The more I wstch LSU the more frustrating it is we didn’t beat them and beat them by a big margin.

[Farmer Brown 2,391]

So that's how he got that open.

Well considering their play the last few drives, I think you need a new line of attack.

It’s not a solution for the current situation but I cut the cord and got a 300mbps WiFi signal and have streamed all season. I’m streaming via a Roku and ESPN app now with a great signal. If you can, you might check into that as an option. 

[WarTiger 3,916]

Thats a terrific call.  Offense is responsible for avoid the defense on that.  That was completely on the offensive player.  Great call.

More blitzes than blockers. Kam did his job picked up the free man ... horribly of course. Because he is too small. 

[WarTiger 3,916]

Auburn with great field position here.  Need to put it in the endzone again.

Is the SEC network games always on the ESPN app? If they are, I am spending $35 for nothiing.
