Second quarter, AU 20-13

We're discussing the second quarter of Auburn's game against UT-Martin.

  • AUBURN 20, UTM 13: Cade Thompson hits mike Hicks for a 7-yard touchdown pass. The PAT kick missed. Auburn conceded 70+ yards on that drive.

  • AUBURN 20, UT-MARTIN 7: Brad Lester scores on a 1-yard run. That was a long, methodical drive: 85 yards in 16 plays. Auburn converted three third-down plays. No penalties. Unusual.

Auburn is going reallllly basic on offense. I think I've seen maybe five different plays.

AU needs to pass the ball on 1st down..

Don't Cory...I admire it.

I agree with whoever said the only thing worse than watching these games is listening to them.

TOTAL OFFENSE in 1st:

AU -- 17 plays, 70 yards
UTM -- 18 plays, 75 yards

Vanilla = "College Football for Dummies"
Not, calling our players dummies. Just illustrating a point.

Kris - I have a girl crush on Coach Tim Brewster. I really dig his coaching philosophy so I sorta adopted him.

That pass to Hawthorne should have been a big gain; Burns threw the ball high.

So Jay are you saying we have scaled the playbook down again? I mean by now it can only be a piece of notebook paper.

LSU fans need to GTHO it.

2:36 PM

I don't think they've scaled back on the number of available plays ... they're just running fewer than usual today.

We're discussing the Auburn game? It's a game alright. A game of just how bad can this team get?

It's time to lay the facts out there. Auburn's OL is horrible. The reasoning as to why they're that bad is irrelevant. They're just awful. Nothing else needs to be said.
Kodi Burns didn't learn anything from his previous two "first starts". Of course that statement borrows logic from Tuberville's ever changing philosophies on out of conference games being "pre-season" and tying for the SEC West means something when you don't earn the trip to Atlanta.

Special teams is nothing without Tristan Davis. He has a career as a return man waiting for him based on pure talent on his part. Beyond Tristan AU special teams creates problems, not field position.

There's a myth out there that Trey Blackmon isn't a big time football product. Hilarious. This defense is average without him. There are too many players out of position on any given play. Blackmon could shore a lot that up by sticking a play before it happens.

I'm fine with AU WRs and tailbacks. They would play at a lot of places. Especially Terrell Zachary, who rides the pine.

I'm fine with AU DBs. Powers is top notch. Thorpe looks to have a bright future and Hood may be better than him in technique and instinct.

AU's D line is top notch as a unit when healthy. When were they last together though for all they're worth? It's been since the UT game?

Auburn's coaches? I'm not ok with Nall, Knox, and I'm not enamored by Gran. Who is and why?

Tubs? Undecided. Although I'm almost positive he's stepping down, if he doesn't my opinion on his rests on his firings and hiring at key offensive positions

The End

The big loss ... it was a designed qb draw. Burns kept scrambling backward.

Byrum missed that FG attempt. Plenty of leg, missed it right. It was 45 yards or so.
