The Under Center plays that we ran in the first half were nearly all the same, except for the four that were run on the 2 yard line...and they were the same as well.  Talk about being innovative....LOL, Mother Fucker.

Here's a quote from Kodi:
Quote
"We've got to figure something out. This -- man, I don't know. This isn't the Auburn I saw when I was recruited. This isn't the Auburn I saw last year. I don't know what's going on. We've got to figure something out."

Huh, really Kodi?  The new OC and the Spread isn't the same as last year....WOW, I would've never thought that?

Here's Rod Smith:
Quote
"There are times out there when I'm a little confused about some of the play-calling. It's a lot easier when you get in the huddle because he just tells you the plays right then and there but that's no excuse. I think we prepared well all week and I thought we were going to come out here and play a great game, which we did in the first half, but in the second half it just went away. I'm just speechless, really. We've just got to get better in the second half."

Also, Rod Smith said he was told, by CTT, to expect Major Changes tomorrow and, RS also said, that he isn't sure if Auburn will be running the Spread as of tomorrow.

Sen'D said that he's going in for X-Rays tomorrow for his ankle, as he was walking off the field.  IMO, it's just a sprain....how severe I don't know.

Tommy Tuberville:
Quote
"I apologized to the players for not giving them a chance in that second half," he said. "We didn't make very good adjustments. This one is my fault and we're going to go back to work tomorrow."

You guys cheer up, me and my Hogs are coming to town next week, and we can make anyone's offense look good.  We make so many mistakes on special teams, you'll end up with a short field at least a couple times.
Hogwally get this message to your DC......BLITZ!!!!  Tackle the RB on the way to the QB.  Even if the OLinemen and the blocking back pick the blitz up, it'll confuse the Fuck outta the QB and he'll either take the sack, throw into the turf, throw a pick, or throw it way over everyone's head....no matter who's back there.  Also, tell the DT/NG that whenever Auburn lines up under center....be prepared to jump on the ball, because there's a Really, Really good chance that it'll be on the turf, atleast twice.

Burns was 2/6 and Todd 8/16 passing. Burns was -6 and Todd -11 in rushing. Neither QB is really getting the job done when they are in the game, so why not throw Caudle in there and see what he can do? If he could do worse, then I would question why he is even on the team to begin with.

Ben Tate had 108 yards rushing on 27 carries. Lester had 12 yards with 2 carries. Fannin had 8 yards with 3 runs. Tristan Davis had only 1 run for no gain. So, can somebody please explain to me why we are not giving our only play makers more touches? Heck, I would rather take my chance with fumbles then having less then half our passes completed. I also think it hurt us that Dunn was out since he seemed to be the only consistent "big play guy" we have had this year.

Let's not forget that we missed a freakin' extra point that would have at least put the game in OT, not that our offense or kicking game would have won in OT either. Our kicking game has been less then spectacular this year. Missed PATs, FGs, and several kickoffs out of bounds.

Lets not forget this was Vanderbilt.  One of the worst offensive and defensive teams in the nation.  This should not have come down to an extra point or field goal.

This years offense has been the worst fucking product that I have seen AU put on the field ever.  It just makes me fucking sick to watch them stumble around like they are lost out there.  We had the damn ball 1st and goal from the fucking 4, and ran the same fucking play three times for nothing, then that fucking genious OC we have, said hey that's not working but if we run the same formation and play to the other side on 4th down it will.  What a putz.  We never tried to stretch the field when we had Burns in the game.  Why not?  And don't think that I am saying Burns is the answer either.  Neither of them did a damn thing to impress me last night, I agree with someone else on here, lets see what Caudle can do.  Do you think that the coaches noticed how Vandy put on a clinic of how to run the fucking spread?  I hope they did, because the rest of the fucking country sure did.  One more thing, congrats to the Oline, those boys sure manned up and played ball huh.  :sad:

I just hope that this team can make the PapaJohns bowl.   :sad: :bag:

For the first time in my adult life, I actually walked out on an Auburn game while watching. When Auburn came out on 4th and 1 and ran the outside hand off to Tate, I quit. The bad thing is I called my dad and asked if Auburn looked any better after I left, and he said he turned the game off and started watching a movie. he has NEVER done that and my dad doesn't even like movies...

I am with you Jarhead. Auburn football is no longer fun to watch. It is embarrassing and unbelievably frustrating. I am not even looking forward to the rest of the year and that is a sad realization...

It is embarrassing, and I absolutely hate saying that.

But why has no one here mentioned the penalties and special teams play?  We are almost averaging 8 penalties a game, and it killed our attempt for the go-ahead field goal last night.  That average puts us 19th to last place amongst all Division 1-A teams.

Let's not forget a missed PAT...what the fuck is that?  We should never, ever miss a PAT.  It should be the easiest thing to execute on the field.

Damn you Chopper.  Do you want to come over and kick my dog too?

Back on subject...Tonto Franklin needs to be shown the door immediately.  Hell, I could come in and call better plays than what I saw him calling during the 2nd half Saturday night.  Where do I need to send my resume?

Did I miss the point where Vandy was able to stop our run?  I must have cause all I saw was us quit gaining five yards a carry so we could attempt to throw the ball.

"Hey my friends are the ones that wanted to eat at that shitty hole in the wall that only served bread and wine.  What kind of brick and mud business model is that.  Stick to the cart if that's all you're going to serve.  Then that dude came in with like 12 other people, and some of them weren't even wearing shoes, and the restaurant sat them right across from us. It was gross, and they were all stinky and dirty.  Then dude starts talking about eating his body and drinking his blood...I almost lost it.  That's the last supper I'll ever have there, and I hope he dies a horrible death."

Ouch! 

I feel your pain guys, I myself walked out of the room only to walk back in and see it get no better.  I had tics to the game this weekend and it would have been the first game this year that my brother could go, but the wife sold them to some co-workers today.  I can't make myself spend 8 hours driving and have to watch our offense play like they do.  I honestly don't see myself heading back down anymore this season unless something drastically changes.  :sad:
