Farmer Brown 2,391 Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 Just face it. Nothing has changed. Gus has been calling the plays all the time. The only hope we have, is that he will be fired at the end of the season. Patrick Nix is a better offensive coach than him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WarEagleHunter1221 1,690 Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 it’s not Joey vs Bo. It’s this Auburn team vs Gus. He’s trash and unfortunately for us we’ve been stuck in this cycle of holding out for better in hopes we don’t have to self implode and suffer through years of losing while we try to find a head coach. I honestly rather lose because winning like this ain’t it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The man is not a major college football coach. End of story 7 minutes ago, Zeek said: The receivers are hindered by having no route tree and a position coach who, though I love the man, didn’t really earn his job. RBs aren’t being rotated out despite an Auburn legend expressing his desire to do so. One should have transferred a while ago and could have killed it a group of 5 school (Kam), one Gus doesn’t trust as a full time back (Shivers), the other is fumbling and exhausted (Boobee), Joiner and Malik might as well transfer the way they’re not used and then you’re left with two injured studs (MAR and DJ). Plus, even Cadillac would struggle behind this OL Responding to both these comments, this is the last year Gus gets to pull this act of doing just barely enough to keep his job. We lose ALL our starters off of this line next year and half our defense. The buyout will have dropped another year too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tbone4jc 2,252 Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 If we play the same next week against a very weak team I will be concerned. Tulane is not that bad of a team. We covered the spread of 17 so that is positive. 2-0 . Could be Tennessee though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nix kept a ball tonight and had a good run.. I guarantee CGM dictates that.. he should let him run more often. And we have a freshman QB so teams are going to make him beat you.. it would be so nice if our head coach would actually plan a game to play to our strengths.

Our D is good, no doubt, but even they played sloppy tonight. Two dropped touchdown passes by Tulane and several more elsewhere. Plus, their QB couldn't the broad side of a barn.

Boobee was averaging less than 2 yards per carry in that first half. Come on now. The problem is our qb’s aren’t being asked to go to reads so the receiver is all but predetermined. They pigeon hole receivers into only being able to do one or two things. The second party you’re proving my point that we have a receivers coach who isn’t pulling his weight. We have to stop hiring quarterbacks for the WR coach position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarEagle1983 2,185 Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 I knew Tulane wouldn't be an EASY win but the as many have stated....yeah our offense is hot garbage. I would be more understanding about the offense if defenses were actually hendering much of what we do. However, it's the same old mess....no offensive innovation that fits our players. Granted our WRs have to do a much better job to get separation. Our best WR is Hastings and that's by far! Kid is always open. If he had size he'd been even more deadly. We have to find better ways to get the ball to our play makers in space. We don't attack the middle of the field. Same ol same ol. It's a win though. We could be Tenn right now! So i'll enjoy another win before killing my kidneys when we play A&M. WDE! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
