Auburn continues to get no respect - we're not flashy and don't have a true star, but we're playing great team basketball which is what takes you a long way in March.

Hugh Freeze's class still looking thin? We've flipped 4 stars from Ohio State and Florida State and are sitting in the top half of the SEC and #16 in the nation.

I agree, based on the OV's this week I think it may be Grayson McCall that comes in

I don't think the QB is going to be a main target. It seems more likely to me that Freeze will develop Ashford (who has a ton of upside) rather than turn to the portal for one.

Yeah exhibitions are pretty meaningless...I hate Kentucky basketball, but I'm willing to bet they fall a pretty meaningless amount in the rankings because of that loss. At least it's not losing to Colorado....

Really hope the next coach stays on. Goes to show that if players really love their coach they'll go out there and try there hardest. I'll be the first to say I was a Harsin supporter (until about Week 3 of this season), but the national media calling the Auburn job toxic were wrong. The coach was toxic, not the university. Watching Auburn go out and win a game (albeit a rough one) with fired up players and fired up fans is all the next coach should need to see to get on board.

I don't think the loss to Michigan State can be considered ugly. That's the same team that lost to Gonzaga by one. They're a very good Power 5 team that's going to make the tournament as a higher seed.

Auburn is going to show up and PLAY this weekend. The team has some hope. We roll A&M 34-21.

I'm encouraged on the defensive end. Wendell Green and KD Johnson are still throwing up ill-advised threes, which was part of our struggles last year. I think Chance Westry, if he exhibits the leadership and play making Bruce Pearl has talked about, will be essential to get our offense on track in the coming weeks.

"Auburn will be spotty" - From the offensive end, yes. However, the defense is going to be winning us games this year. Unreal how well we shut down a projected conference champion, even if it's the A10.

Funny you say that. I went to the game last year and experienced the worst fans of any of the away games I've been to. Got cussed out and had plenty of folks try to fight without provocation. I've had a better time in Tuscaloosa and Athens as an Auburn fan.

Great comparison JTF! I think this is a really stupid take on Hayes part. If they're getting paid for their star power (i.e. the NIL deals they sign), then why on God's green earth do we have to pay them for playing the best. We don't pay Cy Young winners for being the best pitchers in baseball, the NFL doesn't pay the MVP, and so on and so forth. The Heisman is the hardest trophy to win in football and the prestige of winning it is all you should need.

I agree with this sentiment. The media always pegs an auburn coach as "on the hot seat" (Malzahn every year), but I think the boosters, administration and fanbase know that we would set ourselves back 5 years in the SEC if he's fired in year 2

And it might be 1 or 2 a game in college but that isn't bad.

They're still amateurs dude...Control Problems are just part of the game, that still happens in the majors.

That's how other teams hope it works but Calzada who is not a great quarterback but a good enough one would slice up teams with 9 in the box. Dare him to throw and he will. Yes they may split carries, but it is more than conceivable that Tank puts together a 1400+ season while doing that.

Honestly one of the worst comments I've seen on here...pitchers hitting batters sucks for the batter (potential injuries and it hurts), but 4 bases???! That's just crazy talk. I could see that in an intentional hit batter situation but sometimes a pitch just gets away from you. It being the same as a walk (you get one base) is just fine with the entire baseball community minus you.

I disagree with the rushing leaders. While Auburn isn't gonna be a great team, they do have the most dynamic rushing duo in the country in Tank and Jarquez. Tank takes the most rushing yards in the country behind a hugely improved O-Line. Plus the fact that neither of them have been mentioned much will be all the bulletin board material they need.

Absolutely...I think Derek Mason leaving is huge for us. Plus, the guy who called the Alabama game (Jeff Schmedding) is our new defense coordinator and it looks to me (off a small sample size) that he might be pretty good.

Usually it feels like there's a clear favorite and honestly there's not this year. Anyone and everyone could win.

I doubt any of the Auburn fans on here would claim him...but there's always a few in every fan base

What's your reasoning besides distance? Auburn is red hot on the bats, pitching is doing just fine and Oregon State is very much a whittle away at runs kind of team. Can't wait to prove you wrong.

Love this take...it'd be awesome to see 5 SEC teams in Omaha GeauxTigers8 - lots of doom and gloom from you...I think the SEC has great chances among all teams minus Ole Miss, they were too much of a sneak in to make a lot of noise in the supers

Cold take here...Sec puts at least 3 in Omaha - I'm guessing Tennessee, A&M, and Auburn.

"Auburn never scored fewer than 11 runs in winning their regional. Oregon State never allowed more than 8 runs in winning their regional." The good news here is that the same statement holds true for Auburn...we never allowed more than 7 - good offense and defense

I was rooting for Vandy just about as hard as you can for a team that's not your school...really wanted them to win so Auburn could host the super. It's a tough draw to go play in corvallis.

I'll be sitting in the newly coined "Yeti-Land"

Hoping for a big Vandy win and Auburn to take care of business with UCLA...would love to see the Tigers hosting a super!

No, the idea of a beloved rivalry being taken away by Greg Sankey causes the rioting. You're one hell of a useless troll on this site, wonder if there's an age limit.

As much fun as this would be, I'd hate to see the results on the hunt for a CFP Bid with Bama, Georgia, Auburn, and Florida in the same division. It'd be carnage every couple of years.
