Auburn fans have been eagerly awaiting their chance to see their 2016 team and they got their first chance at A-Day today in Auburn.
ICYMI: Banned Satellite Camps Make Fans Think Nick Saban is Evil Again
After last season’s Heisman winner as well as a national championship, it will be tough to match the offensive firepower displayed by the Tigers last season.
Yeah, I know that didn’t happen. This time last year, those two trophies had already been awarded.
With all of the struggles last season, surely things have been worked out and starting to click on all cylinders.
Let’s check the tweets to see things get off to an Auburn fast start.
Auburns first offensive series is a 3 and out. I for one am shocked.

Oh. Well, maybe the next offensive series will turn out a little better.
Two drives, zero first downs. Good news for the Auburn defense!

I don’t think anyone will be able to handle this prolific offense if this keeps up.

There's more hype the Auburn spring game then there is for a home Virginia Tech game! #WDE

No, there’s not. If that was the case, you could at least fill in the lower bowl during such a spectacular day.
This is such a spring game thing to say. Which ever side of the ball is sucking, say other side is on fire.

The quarterback competition is heating up.
That was...a rough series for Jeremy Johnson.

MORE TEMP FOR THE FIRE!
I'm late, who's looking good and who's not? #Auburn #WDE

So far, the grass.
Fun fact: Vanderbilt leads the series.
If you add me laughing, same.
Man these field goals are awesome #auburn
— HoustonAUTiger (@HoustonAUTiger) April 9, 2016
They are definitely looking awesome to other teams in the SEC.
And there it is. The first Heisman tweet. It’s the kicker, but still.
After reading these tweets, I’m thinking they are jealous of anyone currently having a root canal.
I’m in Tennessee, not watching, and could have told you the same exact thing.
Jeremy Johnson is currently 1 for 4 for a 1 yard. He's been sacked and missed badly on several throws. #MGMAuburn

If things don’t improve, there is always next season. No, not the one coming up. I mean the one after that.
