Gus Malzahn was caught muttering something on his way to greet Kirby Smart after last night’s game…
Welp, that’s one interpretation. Here’s another.
He’s unhappy, so I’m good either way, actually. Your thoughts/interpretations?

Quote Of The Day
-
“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

Yeah, geez it was a joke.
Sorry if you found offense, it was a play off a previous meme that made the rounds a few years ago showing a picture of the Auburn locker room with the caption of “first transgender restroom “
Was supposed to be a light hearted jab at Auburn

i get are “they better not fine me,” but i don’t recall any moments to which that would apply.
he could be saying “they better not find me,” which would be apt once they fire him and he heads to an island with his buyout.

I’d need to confirm when this actually happened. My thought was that this was after the targeting call when he ripped into the officials.
And it looks like “they better not fine me”, which would make sense in that context.

It was after a penalty when we were called for illegal substitution and Holyfield left the game and was upset on the sideline. Kirby said “Calm the f*#k down!”

Other misinterpreted lyrics:
“Better not fine me” (SEC office or his targeting tyrade sidline explosions on refs) which was the typical Auburn Fairley-esque spearing on Fromm by the dumaass Auburn Dlineman.
“Better not Find me” when I run off to a deserted island with Auburn’s next 10 years’ Athletic Dept.Fund.
“They Better not Hire Me”- thinking Louisville

Could it been “better not flag me”? Or was this after the game was over?
I could also see “They better not fine me” as UGA ’97 pointed out above.

Was he thinking Auburn would use his behavior on the sideline as cause to fire him without the buyout. Every week coaches behave that way (on the sideline) but they’re not fined nor fired for it…but Gus knows there are over 30 million reasons that the Auburn administration might look differently on his behavior now than they did, say…last year.
To be honest, Gus is a pretty decent guy. He was cordial to Kirby after the game. He gave more than the quick “congratulations” and spoke with Kirby with a pat on the back to boot.
It’s easy to, and I guess we’re expected to raz him over this year’s shortcomings, but I don’t think he should be fired. He’s had some success at the Barn and given a couple of years will turn them around. What coach would do better in the short term?
Yeah, I heard his smart remark after last year’s game. He’s paid for that one.
And making the money he makes, why should he concern himself with a fine?
Maybe he was thinking the school could use his behavior on the sideline to fire him “with cause”, thus avoiding the buyout? If so, he would be looking at millions circling the drain.
While I enjoy the Dawgs beating all of these guys, their schools would do well to hang on to most of them and allow them to finish the building process.

It was at the 12:04 mark of the 4th quarter after an Auburn punt. Swift had just scored on his 77 yard TD run the series before. After the fair catch by Godwin and the game was going to commercial, they cut to Gus on the sideline…

Better not fire me is the best interpretation.

Someone elsewhere said it was immediately after him yelling at the refs.
