Thoughts - Week 2

[wesfau2]

Oh yes he is. Just ask that little whore in Tijuana.

Best $5 I ever spent.  Still have the occasional flare up as a souvenir.

Unless you are in NOLA or Vegas, please stick to the fatties. Big girls gotta eat.

[AUChizad]

I'm not saying he's wrong.  We're talking past each other, arguing two entirely different points...and I AGREE with his.

Agree except stating with confidence that last year's AU would trounce last year's ASU.

While technically an unprovable hypothetical, it's as asinine as saying this year's Auburn would beat the Denver Broncos.

[JR4AU]

We don't know where Auburn is now for sure.  I agree with those that see certain improvements in areas that can be coached.  Discipline, conditioning, technique, etc.  We still lack talent in certain KEY areas, Linebacker, QB for instance, and we've beaten nobody yet.  Don't care how good ASU was in the Sunbelt.  Yes, they're a "good football team".  But they're Sunbelt good.  Well coached, but Sunbelt talent.   We'll see how good this vaunted Auburn run game is against a better, though not SEC Elite level defense this week.  MSU may be so bad on offense that they make our defense look good, including Holland.   IMHO, best thing that can be said thus far, is that at least Auburn is able to win games they should win on their worst day, and not look hapless doing it. 

[Catphish Tilly]

Again.  Disagree. 

Even at our worst, even last year (the worst AU team I've ever seen) we beat ASU.  Bank that.  And move on.

No way (ok not NO way but definitely 99.99% of the way) one Eugene Chizik, in all his cattle-less glory, out coaches Gus in that matchup.

Did you pay any attention to last year's team? Did you watch the ULM game? ASU's team this year and last year is/was better than that team...actually good bit better last year. You might want to consider changing banks.

[Godfather]

Fuck I can't believe we lost to Arkansas State...gee I hope we can hang with Mississipi State this week.

[Jumbo]

Sorry Godfather State hangs 49 on us this weekend and we start the year 0-3.

it was a moral victory. 

[WiregrassTiger]

it was a moral victory.

I thought it was a big win. Who were we talking about?

[jmar]

I thought it was a big win. Who were we talking about?

Suwanee or maybe Gardner Webb, I forget.

[WiregrassTiger]

Suwanee or maybe Gardner Webb, I forget.

Regardless, I'm sure it was a big win. Like we had. We did decide it was a big win, didn't we?

[Kaos]

No way (ok not NO way but definitely 99.99% of the way) one Eugene Chizik, in all his cattle-less glory, out coaches Gus in that matchup.

Wouldn't have to.  Better talent. Can't coach speed.

[jmar]

Can't coach high, hapless, helpless, undisciplined, out of shape...either.

[War Eagle!!!]

Can't coach high, hapless, helpless, undisciplined, out of shape...either.

This.

[WiregrassTiger]

Can't coach high, hapless, helpless, undisciplined, out of shape...either.

I mostly disagree except the high. We wond  a BCS with a bunch of high players in 2010, no?

[Kaos]

Ya'll need to get your heads right.  ASU doesn't beat Auburn ever.  Not last year, not this year, not in 1979, not in 1998, not in 2008.  Not ever.  Our worst day, their best day.  It doesn't happen. 

Well, okay it could. But it wouldn't 99.97490% of the time.  It would take a fluke miracle and special circumstances, not just a record disparity.  Last year's AU team goes 10-2 with ASU's schedule.  That's just the reality. 

It's offensive to me to consider anything else.  It's why their chirping pissed me off.  I KNEW better -- and was right.  When all ya'll were worrying about just winning or winning by a TD or less I said we'd thump their butts.  Me. The guy who worries about everything, the guy who is always cautious.  I told you we'd bludgeon them.  Because it's what real teams do.  And even as bad as we were last year, we were still a real team.  ASU isn't and won't ever be.

So, you wanna play Troy or not? Stay on topic please.

I said 3 + TDs and I still think we struggle this year.  So nanny-nanny boo-boo
