Half of college football live episode designated to AU troubles. Fans screaming, Gus apologizing, 7 straight home losses.. A ton of pressure on them to win


A ton of pressure on both teams to win. Fans are screaming here too for Miles' head, but should wait till the season plays out to rant. LSU fans have reason to cheer, Aub fans are looking for a reason, hopefully they will still be looking after this weekend.

If Malzahn loses this game, Auburn fans will be calling for his head... only problem is, his buyout is through the roof

Also, did you see pollock and finebaum? Pollock legit hates him. He looked like he was ready to blow after he called Gus's apology pathetic


I saw that yesterday on my lunch. Finebaum had also just said that USC is not a coveted coaching job and Pollock was just shaking his head like wtf is this old man talking about

as hungry as they are they are gonna over Pursue and key on LF like a mofo. Cam needs to dial up some screens, mis-direction and play action.. Use LF as a decoy some because we all know they will key on him. They were embarrassed last year. Hope we see Guice in the slot some. With LF in backfield going to end around and WR screens should be effective


Well, great. Way to give away the game plan, Les.

You're absolutely right. For some reason, Gus' seat looks hotter than Les Miles right now. I don't know why.


7 straight home losses to Power 5 conf opponents and something like 2-10 in his last 12 SEC games. That's why.

Auburn has not lost 7 straight home games


I think it's 7 straight home conference games. They're also 2-10 in their last 12 conference games overall.

I know. That's so silly! I mean, he only has a more recent SEC championship, a more recent trip to the natty, and a more recent win over Bama! How silly.


Auburn's last 5 seasons...

2010 14-0, 8-0
2011 8-5, 4-4
2012 3-9, 0-8
2013 12-2, 7-1
2014 8-5, 4-4
2015 7-6, 2-6
2016 1-2

Are people REALLY arguing that they'd rather have this type of life as a fan...? To call this type of program a fricking roller coaster is an insult to real roller coasters. 3-9 and 0-8?!? Miles wouldn't have gotten death threats...he'd have been fricking murdered. Looking at that run, it's hot, then warm, then shitty all in the span of a single player's career. That's just not a program I'd want to emulate at all.

For all his faults, and there are plenty of them and many are legit, pretending that we'd be better off with this type of inconsistency rather than what we've had here since 2000 in absolutely absurd. Even accepting that Miles' tenure in BR has now gotten stale and change is in order, why pretend his stay has not been tremendously better than this manic shite right here?

And when we win Saturday I will revel in it. Auburn is one of the most awful fan bases and arrogant programs. Remember the shirts they had "fear the thumb" back when they owned bama and were going for 6 straight wins. The cigar game 1999. The kicker and LSU band incident. Too many to list. Glad for them. Bring on 8th home loss. :pompom:

Watch out for biased officiating. The SEC usually favors Bama but they've been known to cheat for Auburn too. Always remember refgate 2006.

Tammy is the captain of that fan base ...
We have to jump them early and not let em hang around late. That's when I would worry

No matter what, Jordan-Hare will be rocking and loud and those fans won't give up.

Jordan-Hare Stadium and Auburn fans make Tiger Stadium and LSU fans look like children. It is probably the toughest environment in the SEC to play in.

LSU will need to be ready to get punched in the mouth. Their desperation is only going to fuel their fire. Their whole season is on the line. If LSU plays like we played in the second half last week or at Wisconsin - undisciplined and lethargic (see the onside kick at the end) - we could be facing disaster.

I hope that LSU is focused and intense. If so, yes, LSU could run them out of the stadium. But, that will be the difference, I think.
