AUBigCat said...: lets go defense!; 7:58 PM
Miller said...: Ziemba is expected one False Start per game, and I guess McFadden is expected to get 1 PI per game....; 7:58 PM
Unknown said...: well, walt got his PI. now, we need Ziemba to get his false start, and we will have those two things out of the way for the night; 7:58 PM
Unknown said...: miller, nice thinking; 7:59 PM
AUBigCat said...: welll i almost cant blame the coaches for going for it on 4th a long. Our special teams is really bad. But man we cant afford these injuries; 7:59 PM
Unknown said...: Tebow is being taken to the locker room in a golf cart. His backup is playing.; 7:59 PM
Kathy said...: That ref came close to pulling his flag on that pass; 8:00 PM
Scott Coats said...: Tebow has a back-up?; 8:00 PM
Miller said...: Then he remembered that Walt already got his obligatory PI for the game.; 8:01 PM
Kathy said...: The stands are clearing out!; 8:01 PM
Unknown said...: Why do I expect to hear that Tate and FAH are day-to-day?; 8:01 PM
Kathy said...: I thought I saw Tate come back in for a play.; 8:02 PM
Scott Coats said...: Tate back in; 8:02 PM
Unknown said...: Why is Tate out there? Get Eric Smith in the game.; 8:03 PM
Wakeriderof87 said...: Why is Tate back in, lets ride Smith and Fannin.; 8:03 PM
Kathy said...: Don't think we'll see Ontario any more tonight. Hope he's OK for TN; 8:03 PM
Miller said...: JGT,
Any word on FAH's injury yet?; 8:03 PM
Scott Coats said...: The energy seems to have been sucked out of the stadium...; 8:03 PM
Wakeriderof87 said...: That was a hard earned reception for no yards by T Zach; 8:04 PM
Miller said...: Stallworth with some moves!; 8:04 PM
missinit said...: This doesn't feel very fast paced to me tonight!; 8:04 PM
Unknown said...: Hotdog!!! Stallworth with a catch!!!; 8:04 PM
Wakeriderof87 said...: Wow Stallworth is making a impact before Blake or Benton.; 8:04 PM
Jet said...: I am sorry, but that was as stupid as anything I've seen in a while.

Quit out-thinking yourself. You've got a lot to play for, Coach.; 8:05 PM
Kathy said...: Stallworth's first catch as a Tiger; 8:05 PM
missinit said...: this one minute drill ain't looking too good!; 8:06 PM
Scott Coats said...: I thouight Tate got the 1st down?; 8:08 PM
Kathy said...: 325 yards in 1st half; 8:09 PM
Unknown said...: Jay, will you go tell Gus to sit Tate and Todd for the rest of this game please. Tell him Steve said so.; 8:09 PM
Kathy said...: 255 in 2nd qtr; 8:09 PM
Kathy said...: And Kathy concurs; 8:09 PM
Scott Coats said...: Let's squib every kick from now on.; 8:10 PM
AUBigCat said...: Was that a Wade Christopher sighting??; 8:10 PM
Miller said...: going to cook dinner... be back in the second half...; 8:11 PM
AUBigCat said...: I like that plan Scott!; 8:11 PM
Scott Coats said...: CGC's talk of sloppiness makes it sound like starters will be back in the 3rd Q; 8:11 PM
Unknown said...: Let's spend the rest of this scrimmage working on special teams. They really need the practice.; 8:12 PM
Anonymous said...: Wonder if the coaches will chew butt with the Auburn Everyday cameras rolling?; 8:13 PM
Jet said...: Tony Franklin Day in the SEC for coaches.

1. Dan Mullen's play-calling on the goal line.

2. Meyer having Tebow in during a 31-7 game when he's already ill.

3. Chiz either calling or allowing a fake punt and exposing McCalebb for no good reason in a 30-7 game.; 8:14 PM
Unknown said...: Arkansas' tackling is worse than ours.; 8:17 PM
Dear Leader said...: I have a big concern on the running game... we will not be able to pass this easy against TN....

they will shut us down.; 8:19 PM
Scott Coats said...: Is there a game on where it is not raining? Happy Valley is getting drenched.; 8:19 PM
AUBigCat said...: I think we need two more scores before handing the keys to Caudle. He is usually good for at least one pick soo we need to pad this lead; 8:20 PM
FSJ said...: After today anybody believe the B.S. that was being thrown around about how hard the Arkansas QB throws a football?; 8:20 PM
AUBigCat said...: I want this dude to put an "s" on Plains we he talks about us; 8:21 PM
Scott Coats said...: Given the audience of this game, was there any doubt AU would win the poll?; 8:22 PM
Unknown said...: If Tennessee can't shut Ohio down, I ain't too concerned about that.; 8:23 PM
Jet said...: Scott ...

I just told my wife the same thing.

That's just silly.; 8:24 PM
Jay G. Tate said...: Sorry I couldn't run a campfire tonight. I have an extra story to handle for Sunday's paper and it's being written right now.

Piece!; 8:24 PM
Unknown said...: The announcer is irritating. Weazener says so.; 8:24 PM
IV said...: No campfire tonight?; 8:25 PM
coosa said...: I love the Fox coverage of the game - they haven't missed but one snap and they were showing a replay. No constant pictures of 2 morons talking, no looking at some guy eat at a restaurant, not even showing Bo Jackson giving a speech, they just show the game.

Course I have no idea what they are saying; got it muted and listening to our guys.; 8:26 PM
Unknown said...: I can still believe we take Tennessee if Tate and FAH were to go down, but at present if Todd goes down, I would count us as screwed. Burns is apparently hurt and Caudle would to have to pull splinters out of his butt. We need to get him some snaps in this game.; 8:27 PM
Scott Coats said...: Coosa, is there not a timing difference?; 8:27 PM
coosa said...: I also like the fact that Fox takes short commercial breaks, and even skip some opportunities. espn could learn a lot about how to broadcast a game from these guys.

The fake punt was the dumbest move of the year.; 8:28 PM
Jet said...: The game on my TV in the Gump is apparently about 30 seconds behind the reality as ElTurbo texts me well ahead of important plays.; 8:29 PM
Unknown said...: Pickem has been a mess this week. Most of us haven't picked half the games right and those that have aren't much over 50/50.; 8:30 PM
coosa said...: I still think Todd will be the All-SEC QB, but no longer sure that the FL guy will finish second.
;); 8:30 PM
coosa said...: Scott - WJOX - 94.5 is on time with DTV.; 8:31 PM
Kathy said...: Ontarrio walking around with no ice on his ankle; 8:31 PM
Unknown said...: Todd has surprised me. I expected the smart decision making, but his TD/INT ratio is looking pretty incredible. And with all the deep balls he throws, the completion percentage isn't bad either.; 8:32 PM
Scott Coats said...: ankle tackle saves 6; 8:32 PM
Anonymous said...: Wanted to listen to AU radio, except they are 25 seconds behind the TV broadcast; 8:33 PM
Unknown said...: I hope they get the subs in after the next score. I like stats as much as anyone, but if getting players carries ends up costing you a game, carries don't mean squat.; 8:33 PM
Scott Coats said...: time for Tate to take over the game.; 8:34 PM
Unknown said...: I expected more ints, but otherwise this is what I thought a healthy Todd would do.; 8:34 PM
Unknown said...: Yea, Smith!!! My man!!!; 8:34 PM
Wakeriderof87 said...: I like Eric Smith, I think he's going to be big in the next few years.; 8:34 PM
Jay G. Tate said...: New thread UPZ.; 8:34 PM
Jet said...: I don't give a rat's backside about about point spreads, style points, or hair styles.

Get a score, get the front liners out.; 8:35 PM
Unknown said...: I like the idea of the Tate/Smith combo when the defense is tired.; 8:35 PM
AUBigCat said...: get it down todd; 8:36 PM
Anonymous said...: WJOX on the internet is 20 seconds behind the tube...dangit; 8:37 PM
Dear Leader said...: ok time to get the starters out; 9:03 PM
Dear Leader said...: catch the ball; 9:04 PM
