Auburn, looking for an edge against Kentucky. My, how times have changed.
Filed under Auburn's Cast of Thousands
“We remember the Sugar Bowl, I think it my junior year of high school, we let Alabama beat us twice,” Brinson said of a team that also lost to the Crimson Tide in the SEC Championship game. “We’re not letting Alabama beat us twice. In the Sugar Bowl in 2018, they… thought they should have been in the playoffs and lost to Texas.” -- AB-H, 12/27/23
My future is so bright I have to wear shades..?

I’d laugh but I’m suddenly worried we won’t beat them like a rented mule.

I am not too sure we beat anyone like a rented mule the rest of the way.

I agree, but I really enjoy beating Auburn like a rented mule. Maybe that will be our “where did that come from?” game.

O.K. Just beat’em. I’m not picky!

I’d be completely okay with two of their over-eager DBs tipping a Hail Mary into Malcolm Mitchell’s hands for a one score win. 😈

You know…we need to root for the idiots on the plains vs. Kentucky. I really can’t do that, so let’s just say I’m hoping Gus & Boom wins one to keep his job.

There’s no way they fire Gus this year. They can’t show themselves to be that kamikaze and expect to get top flight coaching talent. They canned the guy that brought an actual factual national championship to the plains. If they fired the guy who was seen as the mind behind it (and the guy who took them to another title game), then sweet mercy, what exactly are the expectations over there?

Yeah, but it’s Auburn. They’re not exactly the brightest lights in the football firmament. They’ll worry about the money, but also say “well, last time we had a coach go from championship, to 5 loss season, to losing season, the new coach brought us an SEC title his first year, so clearly it can happen.”

Half the commentators around here believe this should be our strategy.

The same half would want us to hire him as head coach.

If they fire Gus, they may have to take the steak and lobster off the athletic meal plan every day and substitute it with Spam and mullet to pay the buyout.

No worries. Word on the street is that Auburn just tithed $100k to Will Grier’s church.

The two quarterbacks are equally awful, probably best to go by gameday gut

Just do the Spurrier and rotate each between plays.

While always enjoyable, making fun Auburn tends to be less fun when we are just as awful.

And same goes for UF’s off field problems. Do I wish them the worst? Of course I do, but our on field issues take some of the fun out of it.

After 2010, when they acted like they beat the Miami Dolphins of 1972 when they beat us, I’ll take any pleasure about misery on the Plains.
WarD Eagle is an exception of course. He’s good people.

EE, I can not argue with that. Prior to 2010 I viewed Auburn as a friendly rivalry. However, our recent misfortune does take some of the fun out of it.

That’s very true. I did take a lot of enjoyment about the @$$ whipping we put on them last year.

I’m in that same camp, and there are a lot of other Dawg fans who agree.
