Gus Malzahn earns his first Auburn honor

Hey everyone. Auburn's offensive czar has been earned National Coordinator of the Week honors from our friends at Rivals.com.

His nomination was no surprise.

The Tigers rank No. 2 among the 120 FBS teams in rushing offense (345.5 yards per game) and fourth in total offense (572.5 yards per game) so far this season.

No team has run more plays from scrimmage than Auburn's 162.

FSJ said...: That depends D. Miller..

If she likes cool friendship bracelets and pins..I'm her guy..; 9:41 PM
Quitstina said...: Well since Jay G sent her a private email, I assume he wanted it to keep whatever it was private...Just sayin'; 9:42 PM
Jet said...: The 1981 Sadie Hawkins dance was the same day as the UAT game.

My date was a fellow AU fan. It was a tough night.; 9:42 PM
Miller said...: I hear she has a swell collection of slap bracelets; 9:42 PM
Jet said...: And loves hickory grilled swine.; 9:43 PM
Kathy said...: Can't we all just get along?; 9:44 PM
Unknown said...: RK, I think we should let Jay G and Monica deal with their business.; 9:45 PM
FSJ said...: Friendship bracelets and hickory grilled swine..

Niceeeeeeee...

Can I propose to this chick?

Someday my wife will understand.. :-p; 9:45 PM
Miller said...: I'm guessing if it was meant to be public knowledge then it would have been posted here to the blog...
But hey... that's just me.

Maturity rules the day!; 9:46 PM
Unknown said...: And we do have a heck of a football team this season. I am now predicting 9 wins. If we get 10, we might be in the SECCG.; 9:46 PM
Unknown said...: I am feeling a group hug coming on.; 9:46 PM
WarEagleRK said...: Sorry that people missed out on my Beverly Hills 90210 = HABOTN 36101 comparison.; 9:47 PM
WarEagleRK said...: You can't post anything on here without being scrutanized.

It was a joke, geez.; 9:48 PM
Quitstina said...: I got it RK and thought it was funny. My post wasn't intended for you.; 9:48 PM
Jet said...: My Chargers are not playing well. Marcus McNeill didn't finish a block and Rivers got sacked.; 9:48 PM
WarEagleRK said...: Everyone back up from the ledge...it's a blog...it's supposed to be fun.; 9:48 PM
FSJ said...: New topic..

The Holy Roman Empire was neither Holy, nor Roman, nor an Empire...

Discuss..; 9:49 PM
Miller said...: Jet,
Rivers fell asleep in the pocket on that play...; 9:49 PM
Miller said...: WERK,
Who's on a ledge? I'm on my couch.; 9:50 PM
Jet said...: He must have had one of my Lortabs.; 9:51 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: oh...so Mon wasn't kidding around?

well it aint none of my bidness, so back to AU Football talk.; 9:51 PM
Norm said...: Jet - '81 Sadie Hawkins, I remember that well. Good times indeed. I can't remember who your date was though. I remember Homecoming too. At least I think it was Homecoming.; 9:51 PM
Anonymous said...: FSJ,

I did not do the reading on this.

Is it on the syllabus?; 9:51 PM
WarEagleRK said...: Everyone seems a little edgy today.

I know it's the first work Monday in a couple of weeks, maybe that's it.; 9:51 PM
Peter Frankenschmidt said...: Bye.; 9:52 PM
WarEagleRK said...: D.Miller,

If you are on your couch, watch out for the WVU fans.; 9:52 PM
FSJ said...: I remember the 81' game..

If Del Greco had made a few more kicks it would have been a close call for the good guys (well in my opinion anyway)...; 9:52 PM
Unknown said...: Ah, I think it is just life, and possibly the internet. You have to understand people's perspectives to understand what is going on. It is easy to be misunderstood online. I prefer to think everyone is a good person. When it doesn't seem that way, I assume I just don't understand their perspective and give them the benefit of the doubt.; 9:54 PM
FSJ said...: Pop Quiz Sensi.; 9:54 PM
IV said...: Good point Steve FC and I truly believe you mean it.; 9:55 PM
FSJ said...: Chuckle...

You know who you are..; 9:56 PM
cincytiger said...: FSJ,
How did everyone like the cowboy caviar? Good stuff, hmmm?; 9:56 PM
Jet said...: Norm ...

Sadie date was MD ... who was a year behind us.

Yes, you remember my Homecoming date. It was memorable.; 9:56 PM
Miller said...: WERK... my couch has a restraining order against all west virginians... No west virginians are allowed within 20 feet of my couch.; 9:56 PM
FSJ said...: cincy..that stuff is AWESOME..

Thanks so much. It was very well received.; 9:57 PM
WarEagleRK said...: I just assume everyone is here because it's a fun place to talk Auburn and really anything else and that nobody takes life too seriously.

Once this place becomes serious, I'll probably just pack up the interwebs and go back to using heiroglyphics.; 9:58 PM
mytommyd said...: So much for my first week of Fantasy football, unless mr rivers can throw for about 400 yards and 5 touchdowns. Who would have thought Matt Forte Dallas Clark Steven Jackson and Jason Elam would not show for week one.; 9:59 PM
FSJ said...: I don't think things are overly serious on HABOTN..

Heck...people put up with me..; 10:00 PM
Jet said...: Tommy ...

I think your dreams are just a fantasy to be unfulfilled.; 10:00 PM
Kathy said...: Back to football, everyone is talking about being afraid of West Virginia, but don't you think they might be a little scared of us now? This is NOT the same team as last year!; 10:00 PM
IV said...: I do think that we all take ourselves a little to serious at times. I am guilty.; 10:00 PM
Unknown said...: RK, agreed. I like the environment here. This is the only Auburn blog I comment on regularly, although I visit many.; 10:00 PM
mytommyd said...: Umm thanks jet, I think.; 10:01 PM
WarEagleRK said...: Kathy,

I'm with you. It's time for other teams to fear us instead of us being worried about what other teams can do to us.; 10:01 PM
Quitstina said...: I agree RK. I mean, yes this is a community and you will inevitably have disagreements, but there are certain ways to handle them and still maintain the spirit of the community.; 10:02 PM
mytommyd said...: Any idea when the HABOTN pickers will allow us to make our choices for week 3?; 10:02 PM
IV said...: And because Auburn men and women believe in these things, I believe in Auburn and love it.; 10:03 PM
JgobravesHAG said...: So Im hearing Michael Dyer and Trovon Reed are both taking unofficias (paying their own ways) WOW; 10:03 PM
Miller said...: Tommyd,
The games are usually up on Tuesdays...

IV,
Amen! WDE!; 10:05 PM
Kathy said...: jhag, i knew they were coming this weekend, but I just assume it was an official. I hope they commit this weekend. I saw Ladarius Owens at Tiger Walk this past week. The coaches stopped and talked to him as they walked through.; 10:05 PM
Miller said...: Am I the only one just a little bit weirded out by the new Nike/Adrian Peterson commercial?; 10:06 PM
Unknown said...: I read a blog that is concerned over our defense. Am I mistaken that our defense is ranked in the top 10?

Also, we have been playing a ton of young players on defense. I read somewhere we played 21 or 22 players on defense against MSU.

This defense is solid. As long as our linebackers hold up, we are good to go.

As for the secondary, I love them. With Bates coming around, it has become the strength of the defense.; 10:06 PM
Peter Frankenschmidt said...: I try to model my life after Corso. Work my butt off, but don't take myself too seriously. Unfortunately, like Corso, people take me too seriously.; 10:07 PM
cincytiger said...: Is anyone hearing anything new about recruiting? Do you think anyone is close? I was kind of hoping we would get a recruit after every win :); 10:07 PM
Miller said...: Trovon Reed making ANOTHER trip on his own is a huge positive for AU.
Dyer, Mosley, Whitaker, Thornton, Reed... going to be some studs on campus this weekend.; 10:07 PM
mytommyd said...: Thanx D.Miller!!; 10:07 PM
WarEagleRK said...: Steve, I think our D is 8th in the SEC, not in the nation.; 10:08 PM
Unknown said...: I would like to see Dyer or Seastrunk commit because I think it will help in our recruiting of offensive linemen.; 10:09 PM
JgobravesHAG said...: How could Dyer say no to this offense? Malzahn is his favorite coach too...The coaches are just waiting IMO; 10:09 PM
WarEagleRK said...: Big Snacks,

I'm always amazed at how seriously people take Corso.

Corso is the opposite of Lou Holtz. Corso says crazy things because he thinks they are funny. Holtz says crazy things because he thinks they are true...usually in relation to teams he has coached in the past.; 10:09 PM
Peter Frankenschmidt said...: Yeah, don't think there's any way Auburn's D is top 10.; 10:10 PM
Unknown said...: No way are we eigth in the SEC. LaTech was basically shut down and MSU didn't do much better.; 10:10 PM
Peter Frankenschmidt said...: Texts From Last Night (404): i hope kanye doesn't show up to patrick swayze's funeral. " i'll let you get back to your funeral in a minute...but michael jackson had the best death of the year. just sayinnn "; 10:11 PM
AUfan said...: I'm putting my faith in wtc and his recruiting predictions. He seems to really know his stuff.; 10:12 PM
Peter Frankenschmidt said...: Steve,

Didn't Auburn surrender almost 300 yards and 24 points to MSU?; 10:13 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: Yes, SteveFC, our legendary AU defense is 8th in the conference at the moment.; 10:13 PM
Quitstina said...: Total Defense Rankings

I think I found the right stats, if not well find them yourself :-P; 10:14 PM
Jet said...: We're 8th in the SEC in total defense, scoring defense, and rushing defense. We're 7th in pass defense.; 10:15 PM
wtc said...: SteveFC-It is true. Au is ranked @ 60th inthe nation in D. 8th in the SEC.; 10:15 PM
Unknown said...: We are averaging giving up 131.5 yards rushing per game and 139.7 yards passing a game. That is about 271 yards given up per game. Is that really 8th in the SEC?; 10:15 PM
Quitstina said...: Well never mind, I guess I didn't have the right stats.; 10:15 PM
JgobravesHAG said...: The fact that they are on unofficials should mean something; 10:16 PM
Peter Frankenschmidt said...: according to the 8 people that responded, yes.; 10:17 PM
wtc said...: I'mbetter at recruiting stuff than knowing stats.

Even though i do not follow recruting that much.; 10:17 PM
Kathy said...: It's just week 2. Still a lot of football to play. Some teams haven't played anybody yet. Those standings will change.; 10:18 PM
Peter Frankenschmidt said...: Think UT will still have the #1 D in the SEC after game 3?; 10:18 PM
Jay G. Tate said...: OK. So we say goodbye to Monica ... and hello to a new future without her fine contributions.

On with the HABOTN.; 10:19 PM
Norm said...: And on that note, it's time for your favorite Hottie (ME, and DON'T YOU DARE SAY DIFFERENTLY!!!) to go to bed.; 10:21 PM
Peter Frankenschmidt said...: Please don't speak at my funeral. :-); 10:21 PM
Miller said...: D rankings don't mean much this early in the season... Some teams haven't played a game... and some others haven't played a team that could make it a game.

You say goodbye, I say hello.; 10:22 PM
FSJ said...: Peter..

Jay G is a man of words.; 10:22 PM
Unknown said...: Wow, do I feel stupid. We are eigth in defense in the SEC. Never thought I would see that, but it has to be partially due to the way we have shortened games.; 10:22 PM
JgobravesHAG said...: Where have I been? What happened to Mon?; 10:22 PM
Jay G. Tate said...: We're watching the final ep of Hard Knocks, which aired days ago.

I still don't want to spoil it, but my two favorite "bubble guys" made the team. It's a happy time!; 10:23 PM
FSJ said...: Well u may be 8th but it is not like you are sucking..

Like Luv said..things will change when teams actually start playing somebody.; 10:23 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: we're 48th in nation in scoring defense, 8th in SEC

we're 39th in nation in total defense, 7th in SEC

I think we're 8th in SEC in rush defense, which is somewhere >50th in nation.; 10:23 PM
Norm said...: Just so I'm clear, the timing of my post immediately following Mr. Tate's post has no significance to anything whatsoever. I've worked long and hard for the man today and tonight which is why you've missed me here.

I'll try to do better but as I mentioned to someone else earlier, as much as I try to forestall the man, I'm reminded that I have a lot of nice things that I'd really like to keep.; 10:23 PM
FSJ said...: Sorry..that was Kathy.; 10:24 PM
wtc said...: I use this site for the stats info:

http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/football/ncaa/stats/2009/divia/team/index.html

Krisitna is correct in that we are ranked 39th while giving up 271 yards per game.; 10:24 PM
JgobravesHAG said...: No one person is bigger then the HABOTN; 10:24 PM
Unknown said...: I will chalk part of the defensive number up to the number of players we are playing. I read that we played 7 linebackers against MSU. I didn't realize we had 7 healthy linebackers.; 10:25 PM
Jay G. Tate said...: Monica says I attack her on the blog.

I don't. I may spar, just as I did with Allen a few days ago, but it's hardly aggressive or mean.

Mon has bid adieu to the HABOTN.

Summary over.; 10:25 PM
Quitstina said...: So I wasn't completely off with my link. You guys were looking at scoring defense and I posted total defense...; 10:25 PM
mytommyd said...: Kristina, you got the right stats, but everyone needs to keep in mind Kentucky leads all defenses in the SEC - cause they haven't played a game yet. Just sayin.; 10:26 PM
wtc said...: Kristina was right also.
:); 10:26 PM
Unknown said...: We are 8th in the SEC in scoring and yardage on defense. Grrrr.; 10:26 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: Arizona State leads the country in rush defense, allowing MINUS 5 yards in ONE game vs I-AA Idaho State Potatoes

oops, they're the Bengals.; 10:27 PM
Miller said...: well.... let's not get carried away; 10:27 PM
JgobravesHAG said...: First AU game in HD for me Saturday!; 10:29 PM
Unknown said...: Jay, just leave it as a misunderstanding and move on. I hate it, but that is life.

Hey, you give me crap. I give you crap. It is all in fun. Heck, you threatened to banhammer me after about 3 comments on a campfire recently. I knew you were kidding.

If people take this too personally and it upsets them, then moving on may be the best thing. Some people are more sensitive. I am not saying that to be critical. It is just easy to be misunderstood online.; 10:29 PM
JgobravesHAG said...: Also I think Im going to make the 13 hour drive to the AU/UK game; 10:29 PM
Miller said...: I have 1 rule when sparring... wear headgear.

Well, 2 rules... Wear headgear, Wear a cup...; 10:30 PM
JgobravesHAG said...: 5 star RB Marcus Lattimore has scheduled an official visit to the Plains for the Ole Miss game on October 31st.; 10:30 PM
WarEagleRK said...: Everyone who is making a big deal about stats, it's just week 2.; 10:31 PM
mytommyd said...: For some perspective WVU is
29th in Rushing and Pass efficiency (whatever that is ) defense
35th in total defense
55th in scoring defense
54th in pass defense
And tht was against Liberty and ECU so we may be two very evenly matched teams on defense, but our offensive numbers a far higher than theirs.

Not sure if that means anything though.; 10:32 PM
Jay G. Tate said...: Consider me "moved on," Steve.; 10:32 PM
Peter Frankenschmidt said...: JHAG,

if you guys have an extra seat in the automobile, give me a shout. I'll bring the snacks.; 10:32 PM
JgobravesHAG said...: WVU gave up 20 to Liberty, 20 to Liberty; 10:33 PM
JgobravesHAG said...: The Jay G bus stops for nobody, he is truly the man; 10:33 PM
Unknown said...: Hey, don't knock statistics. There is nothing more important in life than cold hard facts.; 10:34 PM
WarEagleRK said...: 131.5 yards rushing per game is more than I'd want to give up. We need to try to keep that number at 100 or below.; 10:35 PM
Peter Frankenschmidt said...: lies, damn lies, and statistics; 10:35 PM
WarEagleRK said...: Stats

Most important points and points allowed.

We're doing pretty good in those.; 10:36 PM
WarEagleRK said...: 87.215% of all statistics are made up on the spot.; 10:36 PM
Peter Frankenschmidt said...: The ONLY stat that matters: W-L

...unless you're getting screwed over by the BCS, then some other stuff matters, but that is a rare thing.; 10:37 PM
Unknown said...: Wow, Alabama is ranked 9th in pass defense. We are 7th. That means their defense must totally suck.; 10:38 PM
Norm said...: Just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in.

I just thought I was going to bed. "Mrs. Norm" beat me to the punch and doesn't look too favorably on me if I turn on my bedside light to read after she's already asleep. I have learned this lesson well.

So, since I've been away most of the day and night, what's been happening? What are we talking about?; 10:38 PM
Quitstina said...: Statistics and what they mean, Norm.
Or don't mean.

The only stat I care about right now is 2-0.; 10:39 PM
Unknown said...: We are talking about statistics and how I plan to use them to rule the world.; 10:39 PM
Miller said...: There are some weird looking peeps in Oakland.; 10:39 PM
Jay G. Tate said...: We're talking about how Gus Malzahn has been coaching his contract off and how Lee Ziemba used to suck but doesn't now.; 10:39 PM
WarEagleRK said...: Well I'm off to bed everyone.

If we've learned anything today we've learned:

Lee Ziemba = good player with a habit of drawing yellow laundry.

Two games does not a season make, stats really don't mean anything until you are deeper into the schedule.

West Virginia may or may not be a threat depending on if we are for real or not for real.

And finally...

The HABOTN as in life, sometimes you have to say goodbye.; 10:40 PM
Kathy said...: My sister and two daughters will be coming with me to the game. My sister is already getting my oldest daughter primed for the yelling of "Hottie Hooooooo." So if you hear them, please amuse them by repeating the call!; 10:40 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: I sure wish I knew why my email accounts go "offline" on my mac for no apparent reason.; 10:40 PM
Unknown said...: Gus needs a raise. I want that guy at $2 Million a year before the end of the season. He is gold.; 10:41 PM
FSJ said...: THT..I have that problem on my AT&T account but none of the others.; 10:41 PM
wtc said...: I'll take points scored and points allowed over all the other stats for now. Wait until about 6 games in and the stats will work themselves out.; 10:41 PM
Norm said...: I like Coach Gus. I hope he can hang around awhile. I wish I knew what he was thinking. I'm liking LZ more and more. I didn't like much of anyone last year and he could see the top of the list.; 10:41 PM
Unknown said...: Wish I could help THT, but I don't do Mac or Windblows.; 10:42 PM
JgobravesHAG said...: I want Gus as HC before someone else snatches him...wont be long before Memphis comes calling...this is also his hot bed for recruiting; 10:42 PM
FSJ said...: It usually happens when I check the AT&T account from my iPhone..; 10:43 PM
cincytiger said...: THT,
My Mac mail has been doing that, too. Just lately.; 10:43 PM
Unknown said...: jhag, I think Malzahn will have a shot at bigger gigs than Memphis. When you make such a total change in an offense in one season, you get noticed.; 10:44 PM
Unknown said...: What is the name of the Mac app for reading mail?; 10:44 PM
JgobravesHAG said...: Nobody in the SEC will gamble on him..eh maybe USCe; 10:45 PM
FSJ said...: mail; 10:46 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: It doesn't happen very often, but when it starts happening, it keeps doing it over and over even though I keep selecting "Take all accounts online".

Haven't been able to find a fix via the interwebs.

I think I'll shut this thing down and let it rest for awhile.

Good night Hotties.; 10:47 PM
Unknown said...: Hmmm, it could be spun off from Evolution, the app I use on my linux box. I have no problem with Evolution and recommend it highly. It will read mail as well as RSS feeds. It is likely available for the Mac.; 10:48 PM
Unknown said...: Goodnight THT; 10:48 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: or LSwho if Miles blows another season.; 10:48 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: Good night SFC. I'll check that out tomorrow.; 10:49 PM
IV said...: 'Night THT; 10:50 PM
Unknown said...: jhag, I could see him going to somewhere like Texas A&M or Miami. If Georgia had an opening, he could end up there. If Petrino fizzles at Arkansas, you can bet Malzahn will be there.; 10:50 PM
Peter Frankenschmidt said...: Did someone say Mr.United was here?; 10:50 PM
Unknown said...: Good point. I am sure Malzahn would jump at the LSU job too.

Some got mad when guys like Chizik and Boom left, but I don't mind coaches furthering their careers.

I do hope Malzahn is around for a long time though.; 10:51 PM
Jay G. Tate said...: I had a Mr. U sighting on Friday night.

Didn't get a chance to chat. I was busy being Wifey's henchman. BACK TO WORK!; 10:51 PM
Norm said...: Speaking of Mr. U - what'd he do Friday to get the 740 ban?; 10:51 PM
Peter Frankenschmidt said...: I think Malzahn goes to the Big East from here.; 10:52 PM
Kathy said...: Texas will probably come calling for Gus.; 10:52 PM
Jay G. Tate said...: Mr. U, as I understand it, made a controversial statement about 9/11.; 10:54 PM
IV said...: Texas already has "Boom" as Coach-In-Waiting.; 10:54 PM
Unknown said...: Keeping coordinators is something Tuberville could never do, so I imagine Chiz will have the same problem. It would be neat if someone like Troop took over as OC if Malzahn left.; 10:54 PM
Jet said...: Can we say that Mr. U was "Kanye-d?"; 10:55 PM
IV said...: Goodnight all,

It has been an interesting night. However, at the end of the day, we are all Auburn people and that is why we are here.; 10:55 PM
Jay G. Tate said...: Keeping coordinators is bad in a sense. Head coaches, in my opinion, should be grooming those guys for better gigs.

I suspect Tuberville's inability or unwillingness to do that sent some people packin' through the years.; 10:56 PM
Kathy said...: We could make Gus our coach in waiting. It's there a term limit on coach in waiting status?; 10:56 PM
Peter Frankenschmidt said...: Didn't hear Mr.U, but did have a discussion with a buddy about when 9/11 jokes would start making their routes on the comedy circuit. Every major tragedy in history (some which I consider way worse than 9/11) has passed the "too soon" mark and become a source for funny, but of very bad taste, jokes from edgy comedians.; 10:57 PM
Norm said...: I think CGC assembled his staff with the full expectation that not very many would be likely of becoming tenured with RSA. Long term outlook, I like that.; 10:58 PM
E-Bro said...: I worry less about coordinator turnover with Chiz. Not saying it won't be an issue, but I don't think it will be something that defines Chiz like it did Tubs. For one thing, I think people will like working for Chiz more because he'll do them the favor of making sure they get where they want to be: a head coach somewhere. That's something that Tubs didn't do for his coaches and it's a big reason why Chiz left for Texas.; 10:58 PM
Unknown said...: It is also possible that Gus would love to stay an OC in the right situation. Take Borges for example. I don't think he was interested in doing the HC thing any longer. I got the impression he was wanting to settle in a long term position as OC.; 10:58 PM
E-Bro said...: Wow Jay, great minds...; 10:58 PM
JgobravesHAG said...: Pretty sure no SEC school is going to take a risk on a coach, 4 years out of being a High School coach, yall are being delusional; 10:59 PM
Jay G. Tate said...: What Mr. U said wasn't a joke. It was a controversial statement. I don't really think it was worth banning him, but that's not my call.; 10:59 PM
Peter Frankenschmidt said...: I don't think there are term limits on CIW. Jimbo'll probably die with that title.; 10:59 PM
ADP said...: What sections do the visitors sit in?; 10:59 PM
JgobravesHAG said...: Why isn't AU selling out this WVU game? this is the biggest game probaly since 2007; 11:00 PM
Kathy said...: Well, I'm not going to worry about who leaves, who stays, and how long they are going to be at Auburn. I'm enjoying the moment. I like what I've seen. I'm enjoying the games again. And I'm looking forward to Saturday! This season is flying by too fast when it took so long to get here.; 11:01 PM
Jay G. Tate said...: I think Jimbo gets $5 million if he's not the head coach in 2011.

He has a provision.; 11:01 PM
JgobravesHAG said...: Jimbo gets 2 million if Bowden stays after this year...; 11:01 PM
JgobravesHAG said...: Yeah what he said ^^^; 11:02 PM
ADP said...: somebody answer my question dangit.; 11:02 PM
Quitstina said...: I agree, Kathy. I am just excited to be excited for a change!; 11:02 PM
Jay G. Tate said...: It's actually $2.5 million.; 11:03 PM
E-Bro said...: One interesting thing about Muschamp and CIW. Say the crazies somehow get their way in Athens and Richt is gone in the next year or two. You gotta think UGA would make a hard (and very possibly successful) push for Muschamp, especially if it looks like Mack Brown is sticking around for another five years.; 11:04 PM
Unknown said...: One of the more interesting things is what is happening with the NFL. I don't think coaches are as quick to jump to the NFL as they use to be. There have been a lot of great college coaches become unemployed NFL coaches.; 11:04 PM
Peter Frankenschmidt said...: by the way, 6 game season ticket packages are still available for $300 bucks, no TUF donation required.; 11:04 PM
JgobravesHAG said...: Ugh it angers me theres still season tickets available.; 11:05 PM
Peter Frankenschmidt said...: Phred, I think like 35-36, then somewhere up top in the east.; 11:06 PM
ADP said...: I know, that's why I'm asking about the visitors section. I can get one ticket in sec 12, row 19. Is that visitors?; 11:06 PM
Jay G. Tate said...: Unlike Fisher, Muschamp doesn't have a timetable guarantee. He could take that Georgia job ... and I'd have to think UGA would be interested.

Though Mack Brown is smitten with Muschamp, as he should be. Dude can coach em up.; 11:07 PM
Peter Frankenschmidt said...: I'm with ya, JHAG...; 11:07 PM
Peter Frankenschmidt said...: Section 12 is most definitely not visitor.; 11:08 PM
Jay G. Tate said...: Auburn has some deal going right now where $300 gets you tickets to the six remaining home games.

Not too shabby.; 11:08 PM
Unknown said...: I don't anticipate Richt being gone after this season, but if UGA doesn't look a lot better as the season progresses, things could start to heat up.; 11:08 PM
Quitstina said...: No it's not PF; 11:09 PM
Kathy said...: Phred, I think those are Auburn sections. Visitors are on the other end.; 11:09 PM
Norm said...: I'd be surprised if Boom does actually wind up HC at Texas. I think someone else will snag him. But what do I know?; 11:09 PM
