Hog Week

[The Six]

No, it's not time for you to break out the Honda Goldwing...or unzip your pants and give it a rub...it's time to hate on some Hogs and hope we can rebound.

Arkansas is improving (harder to get lower than the whale shoot program they were the last few years). They aren't particularly good at anything which may mean we can get a rebound and look like a football team with a plan again. Hope the coaches can develop a better plan that flinging it deep on 3rd and 3 and giving up on the run half way into a quarter this week. Would also like to see our defenders not commit stupid penalties that get them ejected since we are two for two on that this season. Here's hoping for a bar-b-que rebound.

Mostly, we can all join in hating the Hogs because twice they refused to take this high school coach off our hands!!!!

I'm just damn happy they broke that losing streak on Saturday, because they sure as hell would have this Saturday otherwise.

Yeah, now I'm worried about them starting a winning streak.

Gus said that they are going to look at the film and make corrections. There are a lot of guys in that locker room who are hurting. They fought their guts out in the second half. 

Maybe this changes the way that jarhead feels?

Only if they have a good week of practice.

Seriously. Fuck him

Auburn is a 14 point favorite currently. We opened at -16.5 but the monies have backed the hapless Hogs to narrow that gap considering we are playing 6 on 11 when we are on offense. I think that's fair. Honestly, I can see Auburn winning this 40-3 or 17-16. Neither would surprise me.

I think the kids that went winless under Morris probably have an axe to grind and want to vent some frustration on him.  That said, I think we can out-athlete this team.

17-3.

[GH2001]

That'll be the ONLY advantage Auburn has. 

[Snaggletiger]

What about Gus and Chad and.....oh hell, I can't even try to make a joke out of that.

Ohhhh, Chad was an advantage for Auburn....when he was still in Fayetteville.

In all srssniss, the guy did a solid job at Climpsum and SMU.  I have no idea what happened at Arky. Not making excuses, just honestly have no idea.  Maybe he actually was in waaaayyy over his head being the Big Cheese at an SEC school.  For whatever the reason(s), he sucked.  However, even last year, during prime suckage time, his TE had 33 catches and one running back had 29.  I believe CJ O'Grady (TE) got injured as well. 

How many catches do our TE's have through 2 games.....one for one yard?  I was genuinely chub-worthy pumped at the prospect of getting our tight ends and backs incorporated into the passing game. That must be where Gus said, "Look, run your offense, but cut out all that TE and RB shit.  That'll never work."

Its when he's in a big boy league with even or inferior players. Otherwise, sure he's fine. Its pretty obvious Clemson as a program is far more than Morris. If anything, they're better than when he had his stint there. And SMU now? Well...not bad at all. I really do think he and Gus are two peas in a pod. Gimmicky high school coaches who flounder when they're in way over their heads and the talent level on the other side of the ball is remotely close to equal.

DON'T GET SUCKED BACK IN, DAMMIT.  

It's not worth worrying about.

I'm merely trying to get the blind to see. I know I'm preaching to the choir on this board MOSTLY....but its the rest of the fan base that needs to hear it.

My pitch fork is out and its not going back in the shed this time.

Malzahn feels like one of the biggest con men I've ever seen. He knows good and well he's garbage but in his schizo nature has managed to convince himself that we all buy that load of garbage every time he talks at a microphone. Who is still believing this stuff? He will have taken Auburn University for 50 million dollars when its all said and done....and other than some lightning in a bottle when a scrappy brass balls Qb named Nick masks all his weaknesses - it feels like a monkey from the zoo could have won the same amount of games drawing pictures of random shit on paper during the game.

The pitchfork is just getting warm.

So here it was a few short years ago that the PTB were trying to decide whether or not to let him go to Arkansas. Most likely, Gus' agent was playing their asses like a cheap fiddle again.  Hey, hold my beer.  I'm gonna' tell Auburn that Arky wants their coach again.

So he goes out and beats FUGA and Bama, two number ones.  Great accomplishment, indeed.  Instead of doing what I was hollering from the mountain tops, write the man a big bonus check and say thank you for the wins, Auburn gonna' Auburn.  One euphoric moment and the PTB beg a coach to go in dry.  How many times has it happened?  And this time, they painted themselves deep in the corner with no way out.

He is a 4 to 5 loss a year coach.  Period!!!!  Always has been and always will be.  Oh, but we're Auburn, right?  Who could we possibly get that's better at Auburn?  Fuck you.  I'm better.  At least I know what a tight end is for.


Wait, I'm talking football.

68/8 is 8.5. Mr 8.5. 

32 losses just at auburn / 7 seasons = 4.6. 

I got tired of The Who’s better argument. Many are better. Patterson could have been gotten in 2013. Lots of sharp coaches in 2019-20. That one is old and tired. Probably gets peddled to the masses by Sexton.

Shit. It will be pushed in on Saturday!
GUS has screwed us in the trenches!
