These are probably the same people that think that Holloway is an every down back and Kivon Coman is Ronnie Lott 2.0 correct?

Auburn doesn't have near the holes we do. We might fill them- but right now- a lot to be concerned about on our end
Roc Thomas transferred from Auburn leaving them with two downhill runners. That should bode well for us. Their secondary was much worst than ours. We sucked at safety last year. They were terrible across the board in the secondary. Good safeties make up for a lot of bad play with corners as you already know. We'll have some of the best safeties in the SEC.

I think we'll be better at safety for sure- but we are 12th at best in the SEC at CB- so that will negate any progress. We got torched after Redmond went down. Jiles has trouble staying healthy, Cleveland is too slow, and Lord knows what's behind them.
I think we'll be physical enough upfront that teams will start slinging it- and we get torched

By all accounts, Durr's the real deal and will start at CB. Buckley seemed more excited than I thought he'd be in some of the Spring interviews

I think Tiano has the higher ceiling although I think it's Fitz's job to lose due to him having more experience but Tiano has it. That kid will be special watch! If Mullen will play the better player I think Tiano will take the job unless Fitz just blows us away. If either happens idc as long as we are winning. Staley was way overrated due to his size. He's just simply not good. If we were Alabama and had a great OLine and could just sit back and throw bombs to a deep threat receiver I think Staley could do something but everything he does is just too slow. And I don't even think we should even be talking about Williams. Glad to have his experience as a backup if something happens but he should never play other than mop up duty.

Jiles has been good when healthy. Damn I hope the team has better spirit than we do on this board. 6-6 would be bad if you ask me with this schedule

We should be 7-8 wins with a chance at 9 just from all the toss up games are at home. If we don't win 7 it will probably be because our Oline sucked.

I was talking 2016 season today and the one term that a buddy of mine mentioned was playmakers. Who besides Ross will be a playmaker for us.
AJ Jefferson?
Richie Brown?
Nick James?
Brandon Bryant?
Games are decided by playmakers and we lost a few : Jones, Redmond, Benni, Dak, Wilson, and Calhoun.
Who steps up? I think we find out quickly.
