We'd be discussing how aTm may very well beat us. I've been seeing folks talk about our sched being a cakewalk until UGA, but it wouldn't take much for Gus to Gus it up against this aTm squad..
If @Slippin Jimmy were still posting in boogville...

Guys- Kellen Mond is the real deal. That last pass he threw was very impressive.
We could easily lose any of these next 3 ball games.

There was a reason Sumlin didn't choose Stidham. Mond got some real DTQB moves.
I brought this up a week or so back and was told there wasn't a chance. And this was on The Greg.
I just don't think anybody thought Mond had enough experience to go toe to toe with Bama's D.
Obviously that isn't the case.
Boogs have a way of thinking that only the boog squad improves as the year goes on
They probably are not impressed with GA either.
Well we need to snuff out this buffoonery ASAP. No room for such silliness on The Greg.

Boogs and cfb fans in general think if they have a good team they should win every ball game. Of course this is laughable. Sure we should be undefeated right now but crazy stuff happens when mildly coordinated youngsters compete.
What's frustrating as a Boog is our corch loses us more ball games than the youngsters.

I fully expect Gus to be 1-3 in the month of November. I just hope we beat lsu so we're not the worst team in SE Alabama.
THRUST and I were discussing the schedule this week. I really think Boogs drop one before UGA before getting their poopoo pushed in. LSU or aTm, obvs. Arky is pitiful.
You may not be able to see it, but the top of the bus is bald.
Kellen Mond has displayed an impressive arm in every game this year. He threw some bullets against Arkansas that were really eye opening. I don't give A&M much of a chance of beating auburn though
The biggest thing that worries me about upcoming teams is pass rush. We've played 3 of the statistically worst pass rushing teams in the conference. Stidham has had lots of time and made some plays
I'm more worried about A&M pass rush than their offense. Lead the league in sacks by a wide margin. LSU right behind them.
If we can protect Stidham we can play with anyone. I'm just not sure yet we can protect against better pass rush teams

Yeah and Horton may be out which gives Gus another opportunity to force Tega against an elite pass rusher without help. Or maybe we pull a guard from the other side of the formation...
Mond is getting better and better but their D is pretty nasty!!! We don't have a Jalen Hurts and we don't have running backs of their (bam) skill/power either. It will be a tough out for AU
bingo... I assumed they’d take a hit after losing Garrett, but they’re still pressuring like crazy
if LSU is as bad as everyone thinks and we somehow win in Baton Rouge, a loss to aTm would be the perfect transition from Gustober to his November collapse... pop the balloon and then have him go full Gus for UGA... and BAMA finishes the job 2 weeks later...
everyone convinces themselves 8-4 is acceptable because 3 of the losses are to top 5 teams... and we start the process all over again
it’s too perfect
You left out Gus getting an extension
I think most boogs are expecting to cakewalk until UGA - and I bet a concerning amount expect to win out rather easily until BAMA
not talking about fellow Greg’ers, obviously
I predicted 10-2 before the season and I’m still sticking with it unless there are some crucial injuries
I still think we lay an egg somewhere because we're good but not that good. We can't play our B- game and win all the way too UGA. We need the B- game to show up vs Arky maybe cause we could survive that one playing poorly. B- loses to LSU or A&M.
I'm not all in on this "Kellen Mond is great" thing. For me he still makes more mistakes that good plays. He's gonna make 2-3 great plays off the scramble every week. He's gonna make a few nice runs. He's going to hit a 5 yard out or at 8 yard hitch that is open by design on a smart play call. He doesn't make many other of the ordinary plays IMO. He's not processing anything past one read before he bolts on the pocket. He, like a typical true freshman, is holding the ball till he sees guys open, even on stuff like quick hitting WR screens.
I thought they stayed with bama because they had a great defensive plan. They sold out to stop the run, kept Hurts in the pocket for the most part and that works. If you eliminate that 75 yard run bama ran 43 times for 157 yards. That's winning football vs bama. That's the recipe. They basically blew their chances by giving up the one big run & fumbling twice. Our issue is going to be that if they can stop that run they'll probably stop ours. The good news is they suck in coverage, blowing assignments often and Stidham could kill them if we can protect him long enough.
