I’m Sorry Coach

We think Coach Chizik has done one hell of a job.

Thinking about Auburn’s situation 3 years ago and our coaching hire, I was not far removed from the fan that booed Jay Jacobs as he emerged with our new Coach Gene Chizik.    Now as he begins his 4th year on the Plains I thought it was worth taking a look at his first three years to see where we are as a program.

First, let me say I was wrong.  On a lot of accounts.  My logic was sound but there were obviously things there I failed to see.

What has Chizik actually accomplished in three years:

1) National Championship.  The magnitude of this can’t be denied.  Pat Dye tried in vain for 12 years.  Tommy Tuberville came close but had no cigar to show.  Shug Jordan only managed it once.  Some of us honestly thought we’d die without ever getting the chance to witness a national title at Auburn.  Now we won’t.

Thoughts Week 11 – Aww f@#$ It!

Lee Corso cursing on live TV somehow exemplify's Auburn's Season this year.

Lee Corso set the tone.

Auburn…

- Auburn hasn’t played this season.  I didn’t go to any games, so I can’t be sure that what I’ve seen on TV wasn’t some fancy PIXAR presentation.

- I saw Auburn play four games last year.  I know Cam Newton exists.  Whether or not he’s a cyborg is a different topic.

- Because Auburn isn’t playing this season, the Iron Bowl must not be happening next week.

College Football…

- Robert Griffin III is the best player in college football.  Baylor?  BAYLOR?  I mean, come on.  We talkin’ bout Baylor.  Baylor.

- Trent Richardson is going to win the Heisman.

- Alabama is going to have the easiest path to the BCSCG.

- LSU may or may not beat Arkansas and Georgia.

Auburn Positives

McCalebb has shown time and again that even at 170 pounds he is a force in the SEC

#1. We got a W vs a team many had us losing to.  And, MSU is a legit team, but they’re also still MSU.  They may win 9, but they could also be a 6-6 team…doubt it, but they could be.  We got their very best Saturday, and they came up short.

#2.  59 total Off. snaps, 35 points.  Not bad.  This offense is ahead of schedule.  They’re not hitting on all cylinders yet, and still scoring points.  That was a pretty good, very fired up, and very physical defense Auburn faced.

#3.  The OL looked much more cohesive in week 2.  Definitely not on par with last year’s veteran group, but way far ahead of where I expected them to be this early.
