First post: Wednesday of Week Two

Hey everyone. Sorry for not blogging more yesterday. Tuesdays have to be very productive for me in regard to newspaper stuff. Them's the facts. Once I get beyond Tuesday, though, I'm in a much better position to give the HOTTIES plenty of attention.

I was very excited last night when Madison Bumgarner made his major-league debut for the San Francisco Giants. Long story short: I'm a roto baseball geek, I drafted Bumgarner while he was attending a North Carolina high school, I have him now all these three years (three) later. I spent a lot of time worrying over his minor-league numbers, so I was very happy that he pitched fairly well last night.

Here is Madison, as Auburn would say, doing what we do:


As a side note, if you see those t-shirts Auburn players wear that say "DWWD" ... now you know what that means.

Here's the Auburn situation at this moment:

TODAY'S SCHEDULE
A quick glance at the schedule below should give you a good idea of where I'll be today. Hint: It won't be at Auburn. That doesn't mean I won't have some goodies for j00. I have a lot of video footage (40 minutes) that need to be dissected and given to you as Distilled Video Goodness®. I'll have to set aside a little more time for uploading since I'll be at HABOTN Headquarters and not on Auburn's mesmerizingly fast network.

That's not a joke. Auburn has the best internet access I've ever seen.

Here's what the next few days look like. All times are CDT:

Wed., Sept. 9, 4:30 p.m. (Wifey's birthday; Beatles Rock Band is released)
Thu., Sept. 10, 4:30 p.m. (No interviews allowed; Tiger Talk at 7 p.m.)
Fri., Sept. 11, OFF
Sat., Sept. 12, vs. Mississippi State, 6:05 p.m. (Fox Sports South)
Sun., Sept. 13, 4:30 p.m.
Mon., Sept. 14, OFF
Tue., Sept. 15, 4:30 (Chizik presser at 11:30 a.m.; Players available at 11:50 a.m.)

Blogger coosa said...

Sensi - frontline was a poor choice of words; shoulda said first string. In other words I believe our first 22 are better than the first 22 of our first 7 opponents. Not sure about depth as compared to TN or ARK, and maybe even KY.

Basing a lot of that on what I saw last year and may be wrong, but I don't think I'm too far off. I thought we had better players than WV last year WITH Pat White. Only our dysfunctional coaching staff kept us from winning that game easily. We beat TN and should have beaten ARK.

If any of those teams are better than us, it can't be by much. It is a stretch to think we can win all 7, but I think there is a chance. And if we somehow do, our confidence level will be on the moon and give us a chance in every game left. Beat Furman, then split the other 4 and we are 10-2. I'd think we would win at least one of those 4 if we are good enough to make it to 7-0.

But the key is winning the first 4 at home, and that means that this week is a must-win for a really good season. Lose it, and we are again fighting to be bowl eligible.

I thought Kurt Cobain invinted rehab and everything else musical according to VH1.

For a period of time it seemed that Nirvana or "Smells Like Teen Spirit" topped every one of their lists.

Best Hard rock band
Best hard rock song
Best song
Most outlandishly insane use of a janitor in a video
Awesomely cool videos
Best Country song
Best soft rock song

I think it was on all of their countdowns like that.

I have horrible memories of Octopus' Garden.

New Years Eve 1995. Me and my mom were coming back from church and I was driving with that song playing and as we take a curve on the way back home the car in the opposite direction decides instead of taking the curve that they would try to run through us a guardrail and into a field. (Or they just forgot to brake into the curve)

As we sit there my mom says "get out and make sure they are ok" since they hit my side I tell my mom "If I could open my door, I'd be in their car right now."

I'm glad my mom didn't just beat me senseless right then.

However, that song is indestructable. I still have the CD and it never skips despite the impact of the wreck while it was playing.

Even with Stafford and Moreno last year, UGA only managed a 14-7 win in Columbia. Hard to see it being much different. I'd take UGA in something like a 10-7 game.

I must say that I am very impressed that this team came together as a team out of the blocks. I am so use to Auburn's offense taking 4 or 5 games to get it together that I thought it was inevitable.

Sean, I think depth will be the only reason we don't contend for the West title. We could probably get through the season at every position except linebacker. There just isn't enough depth there. When Freeman and Pybus get back, it will be better, but I think this defense ends up getting worn down as the season progresses. At the moment any scholarship linebacker we have healthy will play.

Hopefully a walk on will step up, such as Wade Christopher, but it is hard to see us making it through the second half of our schedule without more depth at linebacker.

Against LaTech Etheridge was very aggressive because of their confidence in Bates. He could help out the linebackers if we are in a nickle package.

I just call 'em like I see 'em.

As for who the number 2 QB is, I thought the coaches made it very clear that it is Caudle. Burns is on the field a lot, but not as a QB. Even when he is in the wildcat, he is behaving like a runningback.

1:06 PM

Why worry, Kathy? Unless you are concerned about how well MSU's running backs are coached.

1:38 PM  
Blogger Kathy said...

Greg Knox admits Saturday's Mississippi State-Auburn game will be a different experience, and it's easy to see why: He spent the past 10 seasons there as the Tigers' wide receivers coach and recruiting coordinator.

Knox was part of the staff that departed Auburn in the wake of Tommy Tuberville's resignation last December. He soon landed at Mississippi State, where he's the running backs coach. As the Auburn recruiting coordinator for every class signed on the Plains except the most recent one, he has an intimate knowledge of the Tiger roster.

"A lot of good talent on that team," Knox said. "That's still a team that — most of those seniors have always been to bowl games, most of those seniors have always been winners. Matter of fact, that senior class has only had one losing season, so there's a lot of winners left there. A lot of kids who know how to win."

Knox shared an office building with current Auburn head coach Gene Chizik when Chizik coordinated the Tiger defenses from 2002 to 2004. "I just remember him being a technique, sound, fundamental coach," Knox said. "He really paid attention to all the little details. He really coached his kids -- he was kind of a player's coach. The kids really liked being around him. I would imagine he's doing the same thing."

Don't believe her Hoopie. She penned that and directed it at you personally.

Scottie..I'm withya. Just the prescense of Knox could set our veteran WRs back to pre-spring status.

Steve would then have to re-evaluate his season predictions...again.

if the WR's go down, we'll just keep C.Todd out wide in the Wildcat so he can use his supreme athletic ability and put double-moves on all those DB's. no fears Hoopie.

Didn't Knox give the WRs bubblegum before the game? I think he said it made them faster. They'll have to miss that.

Sensi.....I get the feeling that with Coach Troop's encouragement....the WRs are mostly worried about route-running, getting off jams, downfield blocking and ...NO DROPS.

our WR's will see Knox, cringe in fear at the thought of ever being coached by him again, then catch every freakin' pass thrown in their direction!

NO DROPS!

i wonder how many up-downs D.Adams & Tate had to do after their drops on saturday nite. hmmm....

Safe assessment, Hoopie. I agree based on what I've read.

And the word on the skreets

By the way, if anyone is considering a pay site, forget Auburnundercover and go with Rivals!!!!

Anyways, I digress.
