its amazing Gus's  end of half offenses are almost like he wants to give up and go into the locker room.   

Exactly!! It use to not be that way. If we had a minute+ on offense, I always felt like we were playing to steal a score right before the half.

Thanks, in 2016 he let SW die on the vine during the UGA game and he was done for the regular season as I remember it.  The Vandy game in 2016 was the last one.  Thanks again.

Not defending Gus, but I seem to recall SW playing hurt and not telling the staff. Should Gus still have pulled him, probably, but SW is equally to blame.

I can’t see the game, can someone tell me how the offense is looking? Obviously we’ve scored 17 but how are we doing in a general sense?

Bout the same

[JDUBB4AU 5,129]

Gus is always doing stupid stuff with time left at the half . He never does anything to try to score points

like he thinks we are going to rack up 30 the next quarter.   we need every single point possible

[smackydoodle 200]

AU's last offensive series before the half was the single worst coached series I have seen in recent memory.

[wareagleguy 1,393]

Block it again

We were doing it the first couple of years of Gus’s tenure as well.

Not telling the coaches?  I sell life insurance for a living, never coached or played football and I was sitting on my  couch watching on TV  in Maitland Florida and I could tell he was hurt… Pretty sure the people right next to him watching him play and practice all day knew he was hurt. Remember the pass where he geared up and threw it as hard as he could and it went about 15 yards?

Iggy kick return TD let’s see it 

[DAG 34,027]

Good kick 

[doug3020 842]

Ole Miss will light our secondary up. 

[doug3020 842]

Hurry up take a knee offense

Well, that’s kind of my point.  Gus just lets the QBs roll no matter how bad they may be as he either does not monitor their performance or he doesn’t trust the #2 or #3.  Oh, and Gus blaming SW for not tell him he was hurt is the lamest excuse I have heard a coach use.  Threw SW under the bus.

[JDUBB4AU 5,129]

They get the ball after half too. Damn Gus . AU could have scored 

[auburntiger1987 759]

thats what smart coaching looks like. keep the other team from being able to sniff a return.

[WarTiger 3,924]

Tigers lead 17-13 at the half.

[Brad_ATX 13,654]

So instead of letting our other track star field the kickoff and seeing if he can break one, Cox fair catches.  Great.

[DAG 34,027]

Dog fight with the volunteers 

[wareagleguy 1,393]

Have to come out strong on D to start the 2nd half
