A little something from Ryan Pugh
Remember him? The Tigers' starting center was very outspoken after the Vanderbilt game. He was confused about the play-calling. He certainly wasn't the only one.
He made a return appearance today. Pugh had a few interesting things to say.
He made a return appearance today. Pugh had a few interesting things to say.
- On if Auburn will return to its 'smash-mouth' roots: "You'll see smash-mouth. We're going to throw it. We're going to do what it takes to win the game. I think everybody's just excited about it, really."
- On how things have changed for the offensive linemen: "We've still got Coach Nall there, so things aren't going to change much. Same old, same old."
- On the team's recent practices: "As a team I know we've looked better at practice and we've just had a little bit more bounce in our step. I felt good at practice today. I felt like I had a good practice. We've just got to keep going out there and keep working."

Hmmm...
I was just about to call it a night and you put this up there. I still won't believe the smashmouth stuff until I see it. I mean, we had this opportunity to be 6-1 right now, even have given away the LSU game, and we continued to run an offense that everybody pretty much protested.
Awesome quotes from Burns:
“I think we should take a lot of criticism,” Burns said after Sunday afternoon’s practice. “That’s not Auburn football, losing two games and being 4-3. That’s just not good enough for Auburn. The criticism is good, but we don’t need to listen to it. We know it’s there. We just have to go out and prove to everybody how we play and what kind of team we are.”
To Ryan Pugh: WORD
Hope that doesn't make your life too hard, Jay G., but it had to be done.
You're on fire this evening, Sense.
I'm always supportive of a Run-DMC joint.
I like all of that except "same old same old". Hmmmmmm....
Monica trivia: I met DMC last year.
HAve no idea what same old same old means.
Nall was a drive blocker coach last year and a back up and pass block this year.
I bet we drive.
I never noticed how many white people were in that video...granted, I was pretty young back then, were all run-dmc videos infiltrated by whiteys?
Practice?
Sounds like Nall with have the line ready to go. I really believe in him.
I think Pugh is being straight; just not informative. That is the way it should be after an open date. I can't wait until Thursday.
We will hit them hard.
We need a "nothing to lose, leave it all on the field attitude" for the rest of the season"
