After this performance, I'm not sure Antoine else wants the job!

Yes!

90 yards memphis and their #1 Draft rated QB had at halftime.

I agree too. There are many reasons to promote Thompson, and the way the D has responded is the most important.

Son, if you want to continue posting here, you're going to have to stay off the drugs.

Somebody please tell me the last time an Auburn defense:

1) Didn't give up big plays because people were out of position and fingerpointing after the fact
2) Didn't concede passes over the middle
3) Played a complete game from the first snap to the last
4) Didn't have a lapse that lasted at least a full quarter where it got gashed and gassed
5) Didn't let a one-legged quarterback escape for long first down runs
6) Slipped blocks and knocked the dick out of receivers on bubble screens
7) Didn't whiff on multiple tackles and allow huge gains from what should have been losses
8) Kept pressure on the quarterback even from three and four man rushes
9) Responded to multiple turnovers by turning the opposition back
10) Held an opponent to well under its season scoring and yards-gained average
11) Got off the fucking field on third down

Seriously. When?

Malzahn just confirmed Steele as DC.

So, the question is whether Malzahn allows him to bring his own peeps in for that side of the ball. Would love to see him retain Happy Pants Lance. Not just because of what he did today, but I really thought our LB play showed solid improvement throughout the season. Frost is what he is. He's kind of penthouse or outhouse. But I'm stoked as hell about the way Tre Williams is playing right now.

Before today....Rhoades was the DC the last I remember.

We have our game of the year WITHOUT our overrated DC, against the #1 rated QB in the country. F that noise that was WM. I feel bad for SC though falling for that hype.

T-Will was the interim LB Coach. I'm hoping he gets a promotion to fulltime LBer Coach.

I have to submit the anomaly that was the mugging we gave Chip Kelly and Oregon in the 2010 Championship Game. That was perhaps the only other great defensive performance in the last seven or eight years.

They should have done it in the A-game after seeing this offense all year.

Coach Steele has been a part of some great coaching trees.

Johnny Majors at Tennessee
Tom Osbourne at Nebraska
Bobby Bowden at Florida State
Nick Saban at Alabama

I'm wondering what Brandon Marshmallow will write in his next hit piece on Auburn...probably something about how LSU didn't really want Coach Steele or how he isn't a good coach.

Sadly I think he gets to own that 73 or so that WV put on Dabo in the Orange Bowl a few years back. Other than that he's pretty solid.

The angle will be Steele's run-in with Kevin Green on the Panther's sideline when Green jacked him up.

"Is Kevin Steele a good fit for Auburn?"

Yup, would not doubt it.

I want the Green Machine to coach anything at Auburn one day.

As for Steele, it's a considerably less shitty hire than I was expecting at this point, so there's that. Certainly serviceable.

I'm gonna call it now. Kevin Steele will be the new DC.

Skreets!

Well, Lance Thompson is gone to USCe.
