While 4-8 would be gut-busting hilarious. I think they end up 6-6 beating Ole Siss and losing to A&M/UGA/BAMA.

Not sure about Lowder but I know that Jimmy Raine (Yella Fella), Pat Dye, Bo Jackson and Charles Barkley are all involved. They treat the program like it's their own NFL franchise. Malzahn is their puppet. Same for Chizik and Tuberville before him.
I agree that Gus is not very smart when it comes to leadership. Honestly, he is a poor leader. That is obvious and I knew that in his second year when things started going "not his way."
Today he parroted the "we have to improve" and "we have to get better" while saying "we are going to finish strong." So, basically he is saying the same thing he said before the Tennessee debacle, but today he added "Championship hopes are gone but we are playing for each other and the fans."

It amazes me that anyone would want to coach there with such a good ol’ boy network. Money talks I guess but I wouldn’t want to be anybody’s puppet.

Auburn is a strange program. It's almost as if they have a great team once every four years. Last year was their year. They had an all senior offensive line, great defense, stud running back and a reliable senior kicker. Stidham was also red hot the last half of the season. It was similar in 2010 and 2013. I honestly have no idea why people thought they would contend for the playoff this year after losing so much off last year's team. Alabama, on the other hand, contends every single year no matter what because of the man in charge.

Don't forget, the Barn has had back-to-back 10-win seasons exactly once in their history.
They typically sandwich one good-to-great season between a couple of slightly above-average seasons and follow that with one or two terrible seasons - then rinse and repeat.
It's been decades since they've had fewer than three head coaches on their payroll in some form or fashion.

Tubs record was 85-40 in 9 seasons & other than the 13-0 & 11-2,he never won over 9 games. Passion is 100% - the only thing that kept him employed over the long haul was Bama’s down period and the fact that the never wanted to fire anyone that could beat us consistently- no matter how pedestrian most of his seasons were.

Now their boards are roasting Gus over the handling of freshman RB Asa Martin. They are saying the plan was to play him sparingly, redshirt him & give him a chance to get bigger and stronger. They now realize he has already played in FIVE games so redshirting him this year is out the window.

You know the Goobers could never take advantage of Bama going through the dark ages. Somehow they managed to blow it on the grand scale. True they had a winning streak against us but they did not take over college football. They blew it. Well not really. I guess I can't blame them for thinking they are like Bama when then are not like Bama.
