It’s that time again, where we throw gasoline on a dumpster fire, by taking a look at what they’re saying on the Auburn message boards. Auburn is 0-2, and Tiger fans are going to watch Saturday’s game standing on their chair with a rope around their neck. As usual, spelling and grammar errors are in the originals.
"This team sucks, offense and defense, I could care les of you blow me up or not! This is te fourth year of Genes career at Auburn no more excuses it’s time to go, Gene did not win a NC CAM NEWTON did! That’s the truth get out of your closet and realize it! We suck! Don’t except mediocrity expect success, this is not success this is pitiful! That is all for really care what any of yiu think f you disagree because yiu should pull your head out of your a$$ and realize how bad we are"
"Now we know why Dismukes was out drinking"
"Oh I certainly agree, without Cam and Nick we’re another 4 or 5 loss team easily. 3 straight top 10 recruiting classes and still look pathetic. New coordinators, who cares, I believe the turds have a new off co and they still clicking right along. I say keep Chiz another yr and secure this top 3 recruiting class, and then hire someone who actually knows how to coach players up and not down. I do think VanGorder is the real deal and will turn the defense around within a yr or 2, but not sure on Loeffler, his offense pretty much sucks, of course he is at a disadvantage with Frazier running it. I think Frazier is talented and I know only a soph, but a lot of girls could play better than he did today. PATHETIC!!!"
"this is the problem with the AU family man… you can’t ever question the coaches… that’s why we’re 0-2 and the turds will probably win another NC… at the very least be in the hunt for it…"
"FWIW, this AU staff has not fielded a competitive team since the former staff’s players left after the 2010 season, much less sniffed a MNC. Yes, it takes some time to recover from the 2008 recruiting void, but one might expect that in a staff’s 4th season after 3 consecutive years of top 10 recruiting classes we would at least field a team that is competitive vs Mississippi State. Barfield’s final team lost a 24-21 game in Jackson to a MSU team that went 9-3. We didn’t even give them a game yesterday. Fans tend to get upset when we can’t even compete with the SEC’s perennial cellar-dwellers. If we had been playing a good team yesterday like UGA, bama, or LSU, we would have been obliterated just like Barfield’s team against UT in 1980. Unless we improve, we have several thrashings coming later this season from teams like those. We’re looking at the likelihood of this staff being a combined 3-9 against those teams at the end of this season. That sort of thing causes the natives to get restless. And it won’t just be the fans. People who make decisions start to get restless over this sort of thing, and understandably so."
"I see no wins besides next week. And that may be in jeopardy."
"Dear god, just shut up. Are you seriously that ignorant that you think only “fair weather fans” can see what an abortion this team is? Are you seriously that dense?"
"Brother when you hire Gomer Pyle as your head coach generally speaking you should expect Gomer Pyle typ results. Say what you want,even call me a bammer, but thebammer rank and file from the bubbas to the multi-millionaire of the REC are afraid and unified behind of Lil’Nicky.On the flip side, name one AU alum, fan or sidwalk alum who is in any way intimidated by CGC? We do not have a strong leader in CGC who can unify the Auburn Family.In fact CGC has a bunkr type mentality and delegates almost every thing to Tim Jackson to handle. When you add in the fact thta CGC has aligned him self with some of the most disliked people in and around the AU Athletic Dept tp piss off multiple AU donors, cut off former players ability to even visit practice unless formally approved by Tim Jackson and you will understand that CGC is on a very short leash — and that he created the short leash."
"Chizik is more concerned with being a youth minister than a football coach, and with our arrest record the last 2 years he aint doing too good with that"
"Jake Holland couldn’t start at the 2A high school I went to. The fact that a player of this caliber is our starting MLB says enough about the state of our team. If you disagree with this you obviously know nothing about football and don’t understand the concept of attacking the line of scrimmage. Pathetic"
"I never envisioned a game vs. Miss state where we were playing to keep the score respectable. This is nowhere near what Auburn football is about. A game like this shouldn’t happen, no matter how young or inexperienced we are."
"Time to circle the wagons, folks these kids are sweating and bleeding for us, and it’s not their fault that they lack leadership. All we can ask for as fans is that they give max effort. We were a tired bunch out there today, and tiredness manifests itself in poor tackling defensively, but we kept on fighting. It might not get any better this year. Most of us have seen the days when Auburn football was an afterthought. I am confident that we’ve come to far to ever go back in that direction. We will improve. Yes, nobody really likes to hear this sappy, sentimental stuff…but we ALL NEED to heart it. Auburn is so much more than what happens on a football field in the fall. These players didn’t come to Auburn just because of football. They came because when they set foot on campus, they knew, deep down, maybe even on a level they couldn’t recognize until later on in their recruitment, that Auburn is special, enduring, nourishing to the body, the mind and the soul in a way they can’t even explain. I don’t know what might come to pass. Sure, we might have to get to the back of the line for a while, but we’ll be back sooner than later, and this season isn’t a loss just yet. A little confidence is a powerful thing, and Mr. Frazier needs it. Hopefully we are able to right the ship next weekend and then give LSU all it can handle. Playing at home vs. on the road is a very different proposition, and I look forward to next weekend’s game. Say it loud, say it proud … WAR EAGLE!"
"Kodi Frazier is not a SEC level QB. Accept it and move on."
"I’m just not a fan of bad head coaches who make $2 million plus, putting a shitty product on the field in year FOUR. We are going backwards and any fool with eyes can see that. All the excuses in the world don’t matter. It’s HIS program to run like he wants. He has been given EVERYTHING he needed to win. And he failed save for one year of catching lighting in a bottle. I was told by numerous coaches outside of Auburn, that Chizik was in over his head, and I didn’t want to believe them, but the truth is on the field right in front of you. He may turn it around, but I really doubt it."
"Our season is over but team is young period. Whether you want to believe it or not, it’s true. This prolly won’t be popular but u just gotta take some punches. Whatever happens war damn eagle"
"We all know Cam was a huge windfall and the coaches did a good job exploiting it. But, Cam is gone, Chizik is not the answer. AU cant wait too long to pull the trigger. A coaching buddy (a very good HS coach) said he doesnt think the kids play well or hard for Chizik and he doesnt think hes the answer either."
"I refuse to believe that a program like Auburn, couldn’t hire a PROVEN winner to be coach. Even if he cam from the small schools. Winning is winning. It’s time for a change; or we will get left in the dirt by the rest of the SEC."
"I will never say another word about Jake Holland again he was recruited, coached, and put in the position he’s in by the coaches. It’s not his fault he’s out of his league, the kid is doing the best he can with what he’s got. Chiz used his get out of jail free card last year, this stops at his desk now."
"IF LA Monroe puts the heat on Frazier, stuffs the LOS and dares him to beat them it could be some tough sledding for us. I don’t know if Frazier truly wants to be a SEC QB. At least his facial expressions and body language suggest he may not."
And finally, one Tiger fan apparently didn’t watch their next opponent beat Arkansas last weekend:
"Ok folks, we have all vented, time to turn the page and get ready for next week. We basically have 2 weeks to prepare for LSU. This team needs a good home crowd."
