Popular Post tomcat 569 Posted October 16, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted October 16, 2021 We are all fans, and some are more easily frustrated than others. The more easily frustrated tend to indulge in the blame game. I am certainly no more than a fan, and the next game I coach will be my first. However, I’m seeing discernible improvement in this team from week to week. To a degree I cannot recall in many years of Auburn teams. I hope this is sustainable…especially with Bo. I’m also thinking that many of us should sit down, STFU, and enjoy this team improving. 31 4 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me it's the defensive adjustments as the game goes on. Reminds me of Ted Roof. That guy figured you out in the first half and the second half was shut down ball. Mason and team are doing the same. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bobo takes longer than I would like to pull the trigger after setting up the big play. But dang it's SO open when he does. Bo threw 2 bad passes all night. But as a whole he was really good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn’t pretty but a solid showing for a first year staff. I just hope his D isn’t bend don’t break forever. It’s my least favorite philosophy in all of football. But you’re right. I should’ve been better 😌 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed. I hope and pray he develops a better running game soon but he’s working with what he has a heck of a lot better than what we’ve been used to.

au302 2,669 Posted October 17, 2021 Share Posted October 17, 2021 Kiesau is coach of the week hands down. Just drastic improvement in that group it's hard to fathom. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, there has been opportunities out there where our RBs can have long breaking runs but an arm here or an hand there trips them up..I don't think Tank is 100 percent TBH because little arm tackles have been tripping him up lately. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eagle-1 3,821 Posted October 17, 2021 Share Posted October 17, 2021 (edited) I'm just glad we don't have to argue ad nauseum about who is calling the plays, or who should be calling them.😁 Seriously, anyone who can't see that this coaching staff is getting about all that could be expected out of this team is just not paying attention.

I'm pleased with him too. They've been better than people think imo. Not great, but that was expected. They create pockets for the most part. I think run game will improve if we keep stretching the field like today, but maybe I'm too optimistic 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's great to see the improvements, and the issues that had me the most concerned have apparently been addressed. That's really what people wanted.....fix things that need to be fixed before a whole season is lost to them. These coaches seem to be able to recognize the problems and come up with ways to improve the situation or eliminate the mistakes. That really is a good sign. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AU9377 4,978 Posted October 17, 2021 Share Posted October 17, 2021 The biggest change in what we were doing offensively came in the LSU game. I thought it was pretty obvious that Harsin or one of his long time assistants was involved in the game plan enough that it impacted the calls that were made in a positive way. We continued that approach in a positive way thru yesterday. What Harsin has done offensively in the past is much closer to what the previous staff did than what Bobo has a history doing. It looks like we have finally meshed the two in a way that we can get production, provided that we avoid big mistakes and too many drops. Changing what you do to fit the talent on your team isn't always about not having talent on the team, but it's more about knowing and doing what that talent does best. Doing that is a sign of good coaching and I give the offensive staff props for that. I feel like we are heading in the right direction. That said, time will tell if the actual results differ from recent seasons. After winning this game in 2019 at Arkansas (54-11), we were ranked No. 9. We finished the regular season 9-3 with a loss to uga and a win over bama. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many OC's have we seen in the last 6 years and hoped for this outcome, to only run the same O. Much needed breath of fresh air. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree. He looked stronger this week than the last two. Maybe two weeks off will be the secret sauce. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
