Do you guys think there is something wrong in the locker room at Auburn? The defense continues to save you guys but really thought Stidham and O would show out after having a year to learn Gus system,whatever that system is. Reason I ask is last week Stidham got his helmet pulled off and NO lineman picked it up for him and it was 5 yards downfield right beside them. They all turned around and walked by it.Then Steeles press conference was so out of his character,and then the struggles on offense. No doubt Kerryon was a stud but this year there is something wrong on offense. And still Top 10 in country and has the season in hand with wins at Georgia and Bama and the world is upside down again!!Gotta love the SEC and state football ...:0074

I think it begins and ends with coaching. The team seems lost on O, and the penalties are a true sign of a lack of discipline. Players leaving the program and bad coaching decisions are ridiculous. They may be ranked as top 10, but they won?t be soon as I see them losing at least 3 more games. The players see it and the coaches have lost this team on Offense. Jacobs did his final dagger to the program by extending The HC?s contract. Stidham is an average QB in a spread offense. I will be fading them most of the games remaining. JMO
Hopefully the defense will continue to hold it together until O figures it out. The D swarms like bama and Lsu...:toast:
I'd be careful doing that... have you seen the SEC this year?
I think it's an OL problem. I think everyone was blindly hoping we could just piece together a brand new OL and throw them out there and not skip a beat on the run game. We haven't gotten a push up the middle all year. Pass protection has been pretty bad too. Yesterday our OL took a few hits and our offense was just hamstrung in the 2H. Hopefully not major injuries or we could be in serious trouble... if the guys that went out yesterday are okay, I think our defense is good enough to win every game through A&M.
MSU is a really bad team with one player
Vols and OMiss are at program lows
A&M looked really bad yesterday, and I think the Clemson comeback is losing it's splendor since Clemson looks kinda rough
I don't think we'll be favored by more then DDs in MSU/A&M and probably 10-14 in the other two... I'll probably be just looking at Team Total Unders for our opponents.
We'll get beat by 35 in Tuscaloosa and 21 in Athens if we don't see some serious improvement. D can only do so much to keep these games close without a little help. Reminds me of watching the 2016 team that couldn't ever get it together on offense.
Crazy that this has been the recurring theme of our teams in the Gus Malzahn ("offensive guru") era since Nick Marshall left :shrug:
