Let's Talk Football

August 31st at 6:30 p.m.  Pat Dye Field at Jordan Hare Stadium.  The 2024 season kicks off for YOUR Auburn Tigers against Alabama A&M.

Okay, a little too dramatic.  It is AA&M.  Obviously, most people look at this game as a tune up.  A chance to pop the pads against somebody not in orange and blue on the practice field.  And it should be a game that’s well in hand long before half time. I’ve seen point spreads ranging from 32.5 up to 49.5, and yes, that should be the case.  But, it’s still hard to get those flashbacks of New Mexico State out of our minds.  We hope that Co U Free has figured out that there are 12 football Saturdays, and he needs to have his team mentally and physically prepared for every single one, regardless of the opponent.

As for the opponent in 17 days, they’re coming off 3 consecutive losing seasons.  Last year, they were 5-6 with an opening day, 47-13 loss to Vandy.  They gave up 37 points per game and have 30 new faces on the roster this year. Their outlook for the Auburn game as stated at their Media Days…we know there’s a bigger picture, and just don’t want any of our best players hurt in that game. 

What I want to see is, some of these stud freshmen show out, and serve notice to the SEC, that they can come on around here.  Come on, Cletus.  You walkin’ over, butcha’ limpin’ back.

Oh, and the A&M Band.  Definitely the A&M band.  Who is gonna’ be on teh Planez?

My doctor told me I needed to stop masturbating.  I asked him why, and he said, "because I'm trying to examine you."

Even at 6:30 it's going to be far too hot to be in the stands for AA&M.

I'll take a dub, but I'm with you: let's let the kids do what they do.  I wanna see some fireworks.

You can keep a wooden stake in your trunk
On the off-chance that the fairy tales ain't bunk
And Imma keep a bottle of that funk
To get motel parking lot, balcony crunk.

I lucked out for this one and got the good orange fold down seats, and a parking pass a block from the stadium.  As long as I don't have to lug a cooler all around campus in that heat, I'll give it a go.  Otherwise, I'd have my fat, happy ass parked at home.

The only game I have on the radar, so far, is the Woopiggies. I'd like to make it to the TA&M also. My calendar doesn't go that far...

Those are the only two I'm attending.  I would choose neither, but familial interests/obligations take precedent over personal opposition to the Beav.

Nah.  I'm still antifreeze. 

Youngest daughter's boyfriend wants to come to Arkansas game. Oldest daughter asked me to go with her and some of her friends to A&M as a late birthday present. I'm happier not being obsessed and controlled by it.

I'm lifelong cultured Pearl, though!

Attending the Arkansas has almost become a tradition with us, due to the timing mostly. I would love to take my youngest back to the TA&M. 2022 was his first Auburn game at JH and was freakn awesome for him for many reasons, but most importantly he learned how to freeze his nuts off like a man...
