Wont get one.

That’s the problem. Malzahn having job security. Gonna be a chit show.

This one about to have a fork stuck in it.

Gus takes that as a challenge.

Once he is done at AU, he will most likely have to take a small school coaching job. Not sure Morris will make that big a difference if his hands are tied by GM.

Is it really play calling?. Line cant protect. Rbs cant do crap.  This is just abysmal all around. How do you play call around that?

Well he recruited all of these players. He needs to scheme around his deficiencies then. Did you not hear what the announcer just said about Minnesota leading WR? He couldn't get off the line so they moved him to the slot? Pretty simple adjustment.

Sorry but very stupid comment

That’s your opinion. Nothing he has shown me shows any willingness to put himself in danger for the team.

Yep it's standing on the sideline. 

That's loaded. There are TWO sidelines. Yet only ONE mismatch. 😉

You don't go for stupid fake punts.....

[The Defiant 133]

New year, new bowl loss, same old Gus Malzahn. He was outcoached, outschemed, and outclassed....Gus cannot hold Flecks' jock strap when it comes to scheming and set up plays.

2 fluke wins against Bama and Oregon will allow this atrocity to continue for at least 2-3 seasons and there’s nothing we can do except hope Chad can break the wheel like Daenerys 

I hope he has more fire under him than she did

I’d be happy trying anything at this point. I don’t think chad would be this dumb play calling with our talent. Much better fit and talent than ark mart. Gus is an idiot

Even if we pull it off the future isn’t very bright

Doesn’t matter. Chad Morris crapped the bed in the SEC and hasn’t done anything notable in nearly a decade. Not sure why anyone feels he’s some major upgrade, even if Gus let him do his job.

This needs to be sent to Gus! 

[fishepa 1,904]

And their OC bailed a couple of weeks ago. We’re getting worked.

There was no way we were going to fire him this season.

[NoALtiger 3,862]

So our D has given up 76 points the past two games. Those are not elite D numbers. Very disappointing performance today. 

[Farmer Brown 2,391]

Gus has just taken the life out of this for me. I don't hate him, I just can't stomach him for another year. 

[auburn4ever 1,266]

Auburn doesn't just need a new play caller, but the Tigers needs a new HEAD COACH. BTW, Gus will always be the "REAL" play caller. The OC is by name only. Just ask all the OC's we've had since Malzahn took over in 2013.

we deserve to lose.

Hopefully he is smart enough to know you can't run up the gut when the defense is selling out against that.

And Fleck let's his OC and offensive staff game plan.

He is a CEO hc

[jptiger 481]

Minnesota has a coach. We have a Sunday school superintendent.

Does one decision mean it's been bad calling all game? Not enough time to take deep shots. Mid routes and tight ends are being utilized. What would you do that's not happenning?
