OT: AU Hut Hut Squad
- Thread starter ThrustMaxwell
- Start date
Laughable. What would it take for you to admit you were wrong? I’m guessing 5 Natty’s in 9 years and you’d say it was all talent, he’s still not a good “in game” coach.
For him to stop making terrible coaching decisions and costing his teams wins in big games.
He isnt a bad coach, just isn't a good coach, IMO. Nothing to get worked up over though. We just differ in opinions
it's pretty wild that Cookedw is still on this kirby sucks train that he's been pilfering since before the man was hired. We could easily use the search function here but I'm not going to. It's best for him to just bow out gracefully.
Rumor swirling about Tega being out for the season.
Oh well, at least we have some quality depth at tackle.

lol
The funny thing is the rumor never gave a name and just stated an OL.
Maybe this will turn out like last year when Stidham was suppose to be out for the year with a broken back
Yep, I jumped the gun on that one. I looked on AUF and it does just say "OL Injury"
Not gonna be able to handle the creed monsters blaming OL injuries for this round of 8-5.
Late to the party on Kirby, BUT THAT FAKE PUNT
Lol

Ok
Original poster of the rumor has posted out that he was misinformed. Not a new injury and no starter. Most likely Sammons.
Sorry peeps for the bad info
We should’ve all known Gus would make Nix the starter. Can’t risk someone’s athleticism getting credit for success like NM. Been on a mission to prove he can coach an NFL type QB going on 5 years now
And we know what kind of coach he actually is, so we know what's coming.
Gatewood to the transfer portal by game 3. Nix injury by game 4. CS leads us to that 5-7 record. Adios amiga.
Bo doesn’t suck. The job was there for Joey to take, but he can’t read a coverage to save his life.
For example, Joey had a cover two look with a fly up the sideline and a post route. Joey threw the fly. WR got @died. He threw into the flats against the same look several times instead of a slant or dig to exploit the middle of the field.
He just doesn’t have it.
True but our defense should win us 5 games. Interesting read in the West.

It was always gonna be a 7-5 8-4 type season no matter who was goosing the center. Just would have enjoyed JG running it more than watching Bo Nix throwing the same type of routes Stidham did. Gonna be a yawn fest for most of the year.
True but I'm going to believe we've got a shot until the game where we score a TD on the first drive and then get past the 50 one time the rest of the game
Eek. 7-5 looking out of reach. Prob gonna hope for the complete unraveling if we can’t get a dub against Oregon:
Even with an improved offensive line, hard to imagine we won’t take a step back offensively. What offense are we going to run? 2009 Auburn? Sean White AU?
Not sure why you think its hard to imagine we can be better on offense, especially if the OLine improves.
the QB and receivers will be worse... if Tega is limited the line will be worse
the backs should be deep and talented and complement each other nicely, but wouldn’t seem to be standouts compared to the top half of our schedule or capable of “winning” games for us
there’s a difference between having a unit that you can win with - or having a unit that can win for you
we’ve got a group of units that you can win with, but none who will win a game for you... and that’s just not going to get it done with Gus calling the shots
So. . . . . I'll put you down for an 11-1?
Not sure how anybody not named Rice thinks that a true freshman QB is going to be close to playing as well as a guy that Bill Belichick thought was worthy of a draft pick. And we couldn’t beat good teams with him last year. You can say Bo is a running QB til you’re orange and blue in the face but he’s not going to be a “Gus” running QB. We have questions at WR as well. As far as Oline improvement, they could get better and still be below average in our league.
To think Bo or Gatewood will win at LSU, FL and TA&M is probably sunshine city. Two of those will be really good defensively. We should physically whip Oregon. We should beat the MS schools and Arkie. And we have 3 games that we could coach and win. I think 8 is possible and 9 or more would mean Nix is special or Gus figures some things out. Just don’t see that second scenario playing out.
We could win 9 and it just be that someone out Gus’ed Gus see TAMU 2018. LSU, GA, and AL are the only teams that should beat us and that is based on Defense.
I think we'll be better offensively and defensively this year. Maybe I'm deluded in thinking that, but we get a big step up in the receivers and return all the OL. And it's easy to forget that Driscoll was a first year dude in the sec, and both Kaleb Kim and Nick Brahms were comning off of serious injuries last season. Both are healthy now. I'm also excited to see year two of the Boobee and I think we actually have some nice depth there too. I guess it depends on QB play but this team is super talented and we have seen some true freshman/early enrollees lead teams to great heights recently. Maybe that's just the homer in me but it really woulnd't surprise me if Nix does better than Stidham did last year just because he has much better tools around him.
I get what you’re saying but I got our total wins at 7.5 so Vegas disagrees even if I don’t.
