Looks like Tubberville's trying to save his ass. Supposedly a lot of friction b/w the coaches with Franklin being a stubborn ass and wanting to run his spread. Oh, and they lost to fecking VANDERBUILT.

This is what Tubberville likes to do to take heat off his own ass.To fire a guy 6 games into the season is a little quick.

pretty sure this will get overhyped like no one's business. auburn has sucked on offense for years and will continue to score 10 points a game regardless of who's calling the plays

Shoulda canned Franklin after that embarrassing O display at MSU. Like the Vols they haven't recruited players for the spread. Instead are putting round pegs in square holes. If they want to stay with the spread both programs need a couple years. Neither should be trying to play catch up to Urban. Just run the fuckin ball down his throat.

He has his name in the hat for the Opelika (sister sity to Auburn) High School job. True story.

Dont give opelika that much credit, that place is a dump compared to auburn

regardless, looks like this relationship didn't end on good terms at all. From what i hear a few assistants said "either he goes or we go" and tubs made a decision. The reason the spread might not have worked here is because a few assistants weren't on board.

10 Pts a Game that's about right, been shit on offense for years now, doesn't matter who you put in their at oc. Absolutely no imagination on offense, they still think it's the SEC of 3 or 4 years ago when teams took pride in keeping the total below 20 pts, and said it was because of good defense... :nohead:

So Vandy's QB takes himself out of the game because he's getting paid off and the backup comes in and kicks Auburns ass. If Nixon would have stayed in, the game wouldn't have turned out like it did. Still, Auburns offense was seriously lacking and the defense can't stay out on the field forever and keep the points off the board. Face it, the defense was wore out. d1g1t alwatts

:nohead: That would be the one. Bama has about their 3rd good year in the last 25 and they are back to talking smack. You can't make this stuff up.

Anyone know if they are going back to running the ball 1st and foremost? Is that the plan? They have guys in place to be a very nice power running team...

Yes. They have even moved Fannin back to TB from WR. I expect to see more Kodi Burns at QB which should mean more option plays.

If you think Alabama has only had about three good years in the last 25 years then you obviously dont keep up with it.
