tigerbrotha12 2,362 Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 If we hold TAMU under 7 points we will most certainly win. AU will be up 7-0 to begin the game if they are on offense first, bank it. After that, who knows.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's Shakespearean when it comes to those. But he's whoever wrote "Human Centipede" when it comes to having to call plays inside the 25 second playclock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gr82b4au 5,568 Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 What would you say if we came out with Willis starting, we ran the read option with Asa in the backfield and Schwartz on the speed sweeps, and we coasted down the field to multiple touchdowns?

I'd say "WHERE IN HADES HAS THAT BEEN THE LAST 5 YEARS?!?!?" But I still wouldn't trust Gus to keep it up moving forward. He'd have to show an entire season of "finally figuring it out" before I trust him again. I thought he figured it out last November too....

It's a damned trilogy!!!!!! ...When approaching investors prior to filming, Six did not mention the mouth-to-anus aspect of the plot, fearing it would put off potential backers. The financiers of The Human Centipede did not discover the full nature of the film until it was complete.

Much like we talk about rumors and insiders now, the talk then was Malzahn wanted to open up the passing game a bit with Trotter and that Chizik handcuffed him.

Couldn't every bad NFL say this as well? This is not combative btw, I'm really asking No, "any" team that's performing poorly isn't just a few plays away from an outstanding season. This Auburn team is just those few plays away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking back with 20/20 vision, Cam just left and we had three QBs (two of which were Gus’ guys) and as we know now, Auburn didn’t have a SEC QB on the roster. Gus’ evaluating and development of QBs showed and everybody seemed to blame Chick. During the season, Gus used all three QBs as starters. Trotter was the starter from day one, but was replaced by (IIRC) Kiehl Frazier in the Arky game. That game killed any confidence KF had in his abilities. I think Clint Moseley started the LSU game and he didn’t stand a chance. We muddled through the season as opposing defenses knew we didn’t have a passing attack. Even with Dyer and McCalebb we couldn’t have a sustained running attack against good defenses. We held our own against teams with no defense, but were blown out by good teams (LSU UGA Arky and Bama). We did win the bowl game, but Gus started Clint Moseley. He got hurt and Trotter came in and pulled the game out with a good performance. Gus’ parting words at the end of the game when asked who the starting QB would be next year; “Kiehl Frazier, no doubt”. Gus was still the QB guru then. A foreshadowing of what was to come for Auburn, but no one was paying attention. We even finished 8-5 that season. JMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AuburnNTexas 7,154 Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 Maybe we will try something unique if a play works we will run it again. Sometimes we might do something like Miss. State if a play works we repeat it over and over until D proves they can stop it more than once. Nuts what am I thinking Gus is in charge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gus winged Frazier into playing by having him line up in shutgun, take a snap, find a running lane... Frazier progressed into a guy who took a snap and watched the rush....

Could be a combination of all three. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gus hand picked this entire offensive staff and it is a disaster. Why would AU let him fire and hire another staff? And no OC with a future in coaching will touch Gus after seeing how Lashlee and Chip were treated. "Treated"......come on...guys making more than a half million a year. Scapegoat? .....the coaches who are directly responsible for development of the players on their side of the ball? . Folks wanting Gus to be a CEO type coach......so who is supposed to be teaching these young guys the game? ......y'all need to get your stories straight. JMO As for Lash....I liked the guy but he's yet to show he is a real Div 1 OC....was here too long and Gus's failure was keeping him too long.
