Haven’t even been bothered to look up the spread but Boogs cover. Zahn gonna try to make up for that shit loss by blowing his load in this one. Boogs by 40

At first I predicted a huge blowout due to Arkansas being trash and this game being Gus's Super Bowl. I had forgotten though that Gus likes the new head coach there and they are friends. In the high school world, things like this matter and Gus probably adheres to some stupid code. He will probably put Malik in and not let him throw (as usual). Boogs still win bigly, but we may not run the score up as much as we would like. Don't see any way Gus gusses this one up, but I guess crazier things have happened.
 
Boogs had 14 pass attempts against ASU. 1.Over/Under Boogs will pass it 14 times against Ark?

Gus needs a 1k rusher. It looks to be Boobie.

2. Over/Under Bobbie will rush for 250 yards against Ark?

I will take the over on passes, gotta get that Stidham hype back up.
 
Was thinking we played them in Boogton last year. Maybe I just missed that one. Anyway Boogs cruise at home obviously.

No chance The Boob goes for 250. They’ll let him get 150 or so and then start feeding Kam Martin to keep him happy.

Stidham probably goes for around 200 on 15 passes
 
Gus reiterates that he’s not ready to announce Boobie is the starter. I’m sure that vague statement will cause Arkie to completely change their preparation for our offense. Advantage Gus! So lucky to have him!
I don’t think it’s trying to be deceptive or get an advantage. Call it high school or coddling, but I think he’s just trying to be respectful to Kam Martin. Kid apparently has worked his tail off each off season trying to be the starter and then two freshmen come and beat him out after the first two weeks of the season. Kinda sucks for him

He’s a great kid and has a great family. That doesn’t mean that Gus’s bs isn’t tired AF. Kam’s not going anywhere. Also, Gus doesn’t give two shits about being respectful to anybody. How quickly people forget what a POS he was his first trip to AU and when he went to Arkie St. Too many have let the AU family, not a cusser things make them believe Gus is something he’s not. Kinda sucks that people are that naive.

I wished I cared for him as a person and his feelings. I really do.
 
Sounds like we could see several new starters on the OL this week because of “injuries.” Kim’s knee is banged up. Horton is dealing with a hamstring issue. Harrell has a shoulder problem and is almost certainly out. Driscoll is dealing with a leg injury from ASU I believe. Kim not playing is probably as much to do with performance as it is injury, but injury is an easy out. Horton could move to LG if he can play and Troxall to RG, where he’s been repping for a few weeks.

Sounds like it’s possible our starting OL could be:

Tega-Troxall-Brahms-Ashley-Driscoll or

Tega-Horton-Brahms-Troxall-Driscoll

Has an SEC game ever mattered as little as this game?
Maybe the sixth game of the year in 2012? Check out Arky's first five games. Bigger upset, THEN or this week?

That's the year that we quit. I've never seen a team quit like that team did. I've heard those guys still denying it, but the play spoke for itself. They stopped caring early and just waited for the season to be over.

I don't think we're at that point yet. Although I will admit that I would be entertaining to watch AU have a 3-9 type meltdown in year 1 following the Gus extension to $49 million. Glorious.

Absolutely not glorious. I can't think of anything worse to happen to this program than that. Our recruiting would tank, and we'd be stuck with Gus and no recruits for the next 2-3 years. And then when we finally could fire his ass, the cupboard would be so empty, the next coach wouldn't have a chance in hell.

Agreed. It would be very satisfying to watch our program crumble, our town’s revenue be completely decimated and the economy in Lee County completely collapse, all because of self-imposed issues/lessons that Gus would never learn, but that @ThrustMaxwell and I have been begging for him to fix for years.

Would be so cathartic to watch an Armageddon level disaster such to an extent that most Auburn fans give up on us ever being relevant at football again.
