Your Weekly Auburn Zen: Meltdown Edition

Last Week on the Zen: Auburn fans voiced their opinions about the national championship game by talking about Alabama, ESPN and stats galore…

As the final BCS Championship Game ever was wrapping up, Auburn attempted to pull off one final “miracle” play before having their hopes and dreams thrown to the ground and shattered by the Florida State Seminoles and the ACC. The loss was monumental, as it ended the championship streak not only in the state of Alabama, but of the whole Southeastern Conference. Plus, the way Auburn lost was pure karma in and of itself. Absolute. Meltdown.

So, that brings us to the message boards. They were and are still loud and full of excuses, overreactions and a few, ahem…”professional” analyses by the Auburn faithful. We picked some up from the grapevine and placed them here, as always, for your entertainment. Spelling and grammar, as per Zen tradition, are in the originals.

"Stadium looks extremely small. Hell, our stadium looks bigger. How many does it sit?"

"Welp, good thing is they’re defense has to go right back on the field so we can run and score the game wining FG just like in 2010"

"Stupid decision and where the heck is our band"

"Please Auburn Jesus just help us win one more game and we’ll spend the whole off season learning to throw and catch the ball . . . In cam newtons name, Amen"

"We should have won. Offense played poorly. Defense played their hearts out. Hate losing a game we should have won."

"Yes, brother. Never would have thought in a million years Codey Parkey’s s****y kicks and s****y kick coverage would frick us. 🙁"

"Bad play calling. Bad decisions by Marshall. He guessed wrong on the read option all night."

"We rustled a lot of jimmies along the way"

"Haven’t been near my phone all night but am I the only one who feels it’s a little bull shite to call PI on an un-catchable ball with the game on the line??"

"You aren’t sad we didn’t win? That doesn’t make sense"

"Seriously. What a hell of a ride. Yes I’m pissed as frick but I’ve never had a more fun season as a fan. I’m beyond thrilled Gus is the leader of this team and where he is going to take us once his players are here. I said it since he was hired. He is a WINNER and will be the best coach in CFB for years to come. War damn eagle you guys"

"I’m hearing mason would’ve broken the lateral for a td but one block was missed, true? already erased the game."

"Anyone else sick of seeing the midget as a commentator? This doesn’t seem right that he gets on ESPN every year his team isn’t in the championship. It seems like an unfair recruiting advantage, but mainly he just makes me want to puke."

"But damn I am in some pain right now. To be this close and lose in the title game just hurts. It honestly hurts worse than going 3-9. It was a great season but I am hurting right now."
