Trying to Be Reasonable

[The Prowler]

Wow lots of chicken littles running the coop today.  Lots of season yet to be played.

Yup, one game where Auburn had the lead late in the 4th qtr. against the reigning ACC Champs and #14 team in the Country (we also had a new starting QB, basically a new OL, and two new Coordinators...also a change in philosophy on Offense). But, we got beat down towards the end of the game. We will get better, those that are writing off the season already need to sit the fuck down and shut the fuck up...it's the first game, wait until latet in the season to make your statements of doom and gloom, if it comes to that (which it probably won't). Because right now, you just sound like a retarded bammer with your doom and gloom bullshit.

I didn't see an offense that could beat a high school team last week.

I disagree. Had we committed to the run game with Prosch and Mason, we would have won the game.

I agree with this.

Very possibly. They really couldn't stop us and running it effectively might lessen the time we are forced the opposition is forced to see our defense. Only I thought that's what we attempted to pull-off last season. There was a key 3rd and 4 when I thought we could see a run call but I think Loeffler would never consider such.

Fuck yall. 
I think we win the rest of them.

Fuck "analysis"...what this guy said!^^^

There he goes with the fancy lawyer talk again.

I have a weird feeling... I don't know why...Can't really explain it with analysis or logic...But I think we get a lot better.

Not saying we'll get THAT much better, but the 2010 team wasn't a great team until after Clemson, and they discovered what they really had in Cam and Fairley.  These new coordinators have just gotten their first taste of what their talent can do in reality, not just in practice.  If they're good, we'll improve.

My question is, how in the hell could we not? Half serious here. This D surprised me at how many yards we gave up and we did look improved over last year but only slightly. Really all that I was disappointed in on O was Frazier's passing. If we are going to make a run for a bowl game--we need to win Saturday. Not saying we couldn't get to 6 if we lose but just believe we really need it as a building block win.

I think our QB started pressing after he missed on some, his footwork got sloppy and he held the ball too long for some loses where he gave way finally to the pursuit but he wasn't really sacked in a classic sense. State will test him but I suspect Kiehl will eliminate a good deal of those errors we saw in the opener. The kid will improve.

Not only that, but Coach Loeffler will also improve in his playcalling, remember he's still learning about his Offensive players against live competition.
