This should of been competing for a sec championship berth come Saturday, but it’s not, and that’s where a lot of frustration comes from I saw the oline deficiency preseason and predicted 8-4. This is the SEC. Games are won and lost on the line of scrimmage. That some not so skilled at analysis missed the deficiency is laughable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In a perfect world both sides would be expected to pull their own weight. Totally agree at this point we know we aren’t gonna roll up 40 on them with our O. Everyone is gonna bitch and complain about pass coverage and pass yardage but for me the one thing you can’t do is let them run. Hold them to 3.5 yards per carry or less and make them have to pass.

We had always recruited and developed o-lineman until then. However there have been strange circumstances along the o-line as well. Horton and Harrell have seemed to regress. Brahms and Troxall both came to Auburn with significant knee injuries. Hamm and Manning had cancer. I feel that we have the talent, just have very little confidence in Grimes being the right guy at the right time. I think they need a younger guy who has done it before with a Muschamp personality to bring out that mean streak. As far as o-line recruiting, I have said it for years and see it happen where they preach it. Recruit athletic and high football IQ players for your o-line and don't worry about star rankings and you will succeed JB wasn’t even here the past 2 years. We are now trying Hands guys out. Not sure how you put this on JB because his guys were fine even under mister give up a billion sacks a season Hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree with you many were singing the same tune but hoped JB could come in and whip them in proper form and Stidham could lead us to some victories early. Didn’t work out.

Or play it close try to limit mistakes try to control the ball, try to win special teams and see what happens at the end if we still have a chance? not saying either gives us a legit chance but which do you think gives us the best chance? If you don’t think either gives us a chance then why in the heck are you even asking the question? I’m sorry but I sure don’t see why you waste your time on an Auburn board.

Anyway, I expect us to play damn good in the first half. Wouldn’t be surprised if it is a tie or one score game going into the half. However, the inability to stay on the field and depth will do us in, come the second half. That will be all she wrote. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So in 6 months he has had the time to develop them like he'd never left. Yes I am a baseball coach but I prefer not to watch college baseball. I used to love it but now it's like the MLB strikeouts and homeruns. I mean half the players don't even know how to bunt barely even run bases. And since you think I'm so unhinged why not just ignore me. Stop acting childish with the name calling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WarDamnEagleWDE 12,737 Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 Better odds of winning powerball than AU beating bama this weekend. Going to be a 38-3ish bloodbath.

JB hasn't coach any of these players until this year you fool. No one is saying that Tega, Harrell and Horton don't have talent, or that Kim was a 4 star center, and Driscoll was a GT pick up to fill in for the young tackles that haden't been developed in Ashley and Troxell. So learn something about football, coaching, and development if you wanted to challenge me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He wants AU to keep Gus and the score will reflect this. But it's going to be a buttwhipping. IMO anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
