to beat Auburn for a while. I'm a big time Gus believer at this point. Dude can sure enough engineer some offense.

Stuff changes. everyone thought OM was going to have an unstoppable offense as well.
Injuries happen, DCs make adjustments, luck turns against teams, and Auburn will have to go on the road to Bama, us, UGA, and OM next year.
Auburn is a good team, but we'll still have a chance.
Your absolutely right 12 months is a long time.
Nick Marshall will be a senior and he's not going to all of a sudden learn how to become a better passer. He hasn't done it in 13 games so far. I like our chances next year at home with our front 7 and a healthier, improved secondary.
He doesn't have to. I'd venture so far as to say not a single DC is worried about his passing ability. They're a predominantly read offense. Very, very few passes.Quote:

Gus was also the OC at Auburn for some pretty mediocre teams. He runs a great offense, but they're not going to become an Alabama-style juggernaut.
We played Auburn this year with a QB making his 1st SEC start on the road, a green Secondary that was injured, and still should have pulled it off. We stuffed their run game.
We will be at home next year- makes a huge difference
All of their luck occurred at home- they play us, Bama, and Georgia on the road next year- plus the BearSharks, who should be pretty good on D alsoQuote:

That will be a very fun game.
Agreed. Our personnel match up extremely well and actually cause match up problems for Auburn.Quote:
