post game thoughts

That's more like it but this is still New Mexico State we're talking about.  We need more playing like this.

Star-divide

Well, it seems like the defense is playing like an auburn defense. I nearly forgot what an interception looked like (unless you count the ones our offense gives away) That was a rough first half though.

As for Cox, its good to see he didn't screw up too badly but honestly he owes a lot to the great field position that our defense got us. His success makes me a little uneasy because I think we'll abandon the Kodi Burns idea until Cox screws up royally again, which is a problem because this would essentially be a waste of a year for Burns.

So, Bama goes down, and it seems Lord Saban isn't an infallible Man-God. Its kinda funny though because both UGA and Bama think their Auburn game is in the bag, which will only work in our favor.

We can only go up from here even if we will lose some more games, our team on the whole will improve little by little. We have to wait for our starters to get healthy.  We have to get Kodi Burns to learn more offense and make something out of his first year. We have to light a fire under the coaching staff's asses, they seem complacent with mediocraty in a year that Auburn cannot afford to be. This is what I've been most dissappointed with. Borges's playcalling has sufficiently lacked balls and Tuberville has made stubborn bone-headed decesions (He has essentially tied his career to the success of Brandon Cox now)

Oh, and that Wilhite one-handed pick? Awesome.  If only our WR's could catch like that. And hey, no more booing or no more chanting Cox's name. I will admit that I like many booed him off the field that MSU game, but he was terrible and Kodi Burns played his ass off. But it does make us look like Bama fans and shouting "Brandon, Brandon" when he does well makes us look like a bunch of fair weather fans and hypocrites.
