Gus is too hard piped into what he wants to do. The announcers tv/radio are all saying what is so obvious. Lack of a big boy passing attack. We don't have the talent to just run over people. Not many teams do.

I would not let my son come to Auburn if he were an outstanding WR or QB. He would just be frustrated for 4 years.

I love my Tigers and will always support them, but Gus needs to let someone else run the offense if he wants to stay at Auburn. Everyone knows what we are going to do, and when. Not hard to figure out...

...in terms of how often we win championships or how many games we win in any particular year. But da#@ if being an Auburn fan doesn't usually feel like being held hostage.

Hard to put into words what I mean by that, but I'm betting most of you know what I mean.

What I don't understand is that I have witnessed some of the best offensive production under Gus that AU has ever seen. The play calling was imaginative and fairly unpredictable--we had a balanced mix of power up the middle, speed around the edges, and smart use of tempo. That all just seems to have stopped in favor of--well, I don't know what. Watching the offense these days is just like banging your head on a rock over and over again expecting it not to hurt. What happened?

Chiz won with Cam in 2010, then had no QB, changed O and didn't have the right personnel to run it. Then he totally lost control of his team. No interference there.
Gus then won with a converted DB at QB in 2013, and hasn't developed a serviceable QB since. No interference there, either. Just incompetence on the part of Gus, not to mention the last two coaching hires by Jacobs.

We hired a scheme, not a head coach. When there were guys who could run around the perpetual pass rush living inside Gus' bizarre blocking philosophy...we looked good. When we could run hurry up and defenses weren't allowed to sub but we were, we looked good. But this isn't the Sunbelt. Defenses adjust. Rules change. At this level, Gus was always going to have to make the transition from a scheme to a head coach and he isn't doing it.

He is recruiting well, but how long is to offensive talent going to want to play in this offense? I agree that poor decisions are happening at the top, but it starts with the ongoing thought process that there is some scheme or shortcut to success in this league. You have to be prepared, we too often aren't. You have to get the most from the talent available, we very much don't. You have to be fundamentally sound and our OL has been reliably inconsistent. What we have is a formula for 7 or 8 wins and that's what we'll continue to get unless real changes are made.

One poster wonders if Petrino has distanced himself from the motorcycle incident enough to come to the barn. Wow. Sit back and watch what happens if that would ever come about.

This is the third time in the last six games that Auburn has produced fewer than 200 total yards. This is the seventh time in the last 15 games that Auburn has produced fewer than 20 points.

Since the start of the 2016 season, Auburn has lost games in which Kevin Steele's defense has held opponents to 19, 13 and 14 points.

Mike Leach could be a target for some SEC schools this year.  I like Mike but don't want him in the SEC unless he replaces Saban in a few years...

In this year's opener, Clemson beat Kent State 56-3. The Golden Flashes had 120 yards of offense - or 3 more than Auburn did in Death Valley.

???  Uh... no thanks.

???  Uh... no thanks.

There would be a lot of nasty losses but that would be offset would some weird pirate stories.   :wave:

Wut?!?!

You can't sleep in and expect to keep up!

Even if your excuse is some former hurricane.   :lol2:

You've got to quit seeing through me like that. You're tarnishing my cred.  :lol2:

Let me get this straight. After going through an entire spring practice and fall camp and playing two full regular-season games, Gus Malzahn finally has things figured out.

After the worst offensive performance of Malzahn's college coaching career in another inept loss to Clemson, he's addressing the issue by swapping the game-day locations of offensive coordinator Chip Lindsey and offensive line coach Herb Hand.

Next up for Auburn is Mercer. Mercer will get blown out and Auburn fans will be giddy about the great offensive showing by Stidham and the rest of the offense.



 :lol2:

Mercer? Is that the little school by Atlanta? RTR!

Not that little, about the size of JSU with 8500 students. They beat JSU in the first game of the year. Oldest private college in Georgia

They need to put Chip Lindsey on the sideline and Gus Malzahn in the parking lot.

They beat Jacksonville University (FL) not Jacksonville State (AL). Jax St would beat the crap out of them.

...

Thanks to you both. I use to think at one time Mercer was a doctor and nurse school. RTR!

 :lol2:

.......warming up the Gus Bus to vamoose before the lynching.

Stop bad-mouthing Gus.  I like him right where he is. 

That campus is in Savannah.  HTH

Charles Barkley didn't take long to turn the tables and start asking the questions when he joined Kirk Herbstreit on ESPN radio earlier this week.

"Can we change a blocking scheme, keep a tight end in or keep a running back in," Barkley asked of his Auburn Tigers.

It would suit me just fine if the booger eaters lost the next 2,000 games and the whole d&*^*& place burned to the ground.

Starting to wonder if this is the Auburn forum.   ???

It's actually in Macon.

Med schools in Savannah. Ricky was talking drs and nurses.

this ^^

Maybe he will beat Kevin Sumlin in this year's "Loser Leaves Town" match.  :lol2:

That would be very entertaining, but even Gus hasn't led his team to blow a 34-point lead .... yet.

He may not ever score 34 points again.  :dunno:

Med schools in Savannah. Ricky was talking drs and nurses.

Main campus is in Macon, Med school in Savannah and a third campus in Atlanta. I had to look it up. Like Ricky, I thought the main campus and Med school were in Atlanta.

It is kind of funny to schedule a team where nobody can for sure figure where it is located. lol, but hence goes auburn. what if auburn beats them like 14-13? That would really be sad. RTR!

Before you make fun of Auburn for scheduling Mercer you need to look at our schedule. We play them later this year.

FWIW... Sean White DUI...

Two men - both Tiger Transit employees - are charged in the sexual assault of an 18-year-old Auburn University student.

The Auburn Police Department on Monday announced the arrests of James Don Johnson, 32, and Tony Martin Patillo, 51. Both men are charged with first-degree rape and first-degree sodomy in connection with the attack that happened Friday night on the campus shuttle.
