Auburn v Purdue

[Sam Odom]

A lot of shit is going on at Auburn spilling over to public headlines from behind the scenes

just a terrible situation

no one , NO ONE , knows how the Tigers will play today... Not even AU coaches

most definitely a PASS game for serious gamblers

[firedawg]

I'll take my chances fading GUS

[Sam Odom]

Gus is not allowed to coach as a HC any longer... Ex HCs coming to his defense blaming boo$ter$

[kufan11]

At the end of the day its the players who play the game. Purdue is missing their top defensive end Neal. Its Stidhams last game he should be motivated to finish his career on a high. Auburn doesn't really have any bad losses except Tenn, i highly doubt Purdue would have beat Bama, Georgia or LSU. Purdue lost 6 games this year in a worse conference and while they have the one win against Ohio State that is as much an outlier as the Tenn game is for Auburn. Auburn actually has a good pass defense and if they limit the pass they will shut down Purdue and win easily. I don't see Purdue stopping the run and unless Auburn turns it over they will win.

Purdue plus the points - Don't underestimate the power of Tyler Trent!

Duke was missing their entire defense yesterday. Give me the the team who has shown capable of finding ways to score points, you can have the shitbags just cause they play in sec.

[stake1]

The blame here is directly on Leath. Leath gave Malzahn that horrid extension.

If Auburn fired Malzhan? They would have to pay him $32,000,000! That’s insane.

The Tigers have been a colossal disappointment this year, and Malzahn is 1-4 in bowl games at Auburn. That being said, if the Tigers come to play at all in Nashville? Then they should easily kick the shit out of Purdue.

Im taking the team thats 7-5 against better competition over the team thats 6-6...

[firedawg]

Sammy knows Auburn football
Gus has this program in the dumpster
Win or lose he's a marked man

You getting the more talented team too, not arguing that. They still shitbags, I’d rather lose knowing my money on the side that will actually show up and try, not exactly a staple of auburn.

[kufan11]

I just have a hard time betting on a team that lost to Eastern Michigan and just recently lost to a bad Minnesota team 41-10. I don't doubt they will be trying really hard. But i can try as hard as i want against Lebron in basketball but im not going to win.

Gone before bowl season next year - everyone knows it even recruits

[2daBank]

This ain’t exactly you vs bron at hoops. This football and team that shows up generally wins, not the more talented one. Gap isn’t that big.

Disagree. No way Auburn cuts him a check for 32 million. When it would have been “just” 7 million after last year.

[Sam Odom]

Gus' contract was renegotiated or was legally scrutinized to the letter... way less buyout

[kufan11]

I think he is def on the Hot Seat but thats alot of money, unless they got a guy lined up they may just ride it out a few years. Hes got the #11 recruiting class right now with only 16 commits, noboday ahead of them has less recruits so they should climb into the top 10 when all is said and done. Expectations at Auburn are too high, same thing as LSU fire a national championship coach bc u struggle to beat Bama...Bama is the team of our generation like ND was back in the day, everyone struggles to beat Bama.

Link?

[Sam Odom]

Link?

so... you were talking shit without any insight ... got it

Malzahn cannot make major decisions concerning the football program any longer, Has to get permission... Gus would be a fool to stay after next season

[Alright Alright]

Jay Jacobs, the former athletic director, gave Gus Malzahn that extension on his last day at Auburn!

[Sam Odom]

Having said all of this... Auburn could win by 21+

LOL

I’ve not seen a single report that his contract and guaranteed money were renegotiated. Either you provide a link, providing proof that his buyout is less now? Or you know what that means.

Malzahn has 32 million reasons to stay. Only a fool would walk away from that, or agree to less.

And You seem to change direction with the wind, spewing all kinds of garbage without any facts to back it up.

Or they could lay an egg

Let's see

[kufan11]

I think Auburn fans need to take a chill pill. Last year new years 6 bowl, year before that new years 6 bowl. I mean yea they didnt win those games but thats the way the cookie crumbles. I'm a florida fan we won 2 championships in 06' and 08' and then lost our coach and have been doo doo ever since. Im happy to be back in a new years 6 bowl this year. U fire ur head coach and you run the risk of turning into a 4-9 team like florida last yr. Its not like teams like Georgia and Bama and Texas A&M are getting any worse.

[Alright Alright]

[shocka1212]

this games a dumpster fire.. wouldn't touch it. If I was going to bet any game, id go with Syracuse -2.5. even if I lost, it would still be the play for me.

Gus Malzahn wanted to clear the air.

Speaking to the media for the first time in 19 days, since his postgame press conference during the Iron Bowl, Malzahn wanted to make something clear about his contract to be Auburn’s coach in wake of reports that he was being forced to renegotiate his new seven-year, $49 million deal.

“A couple things I wanted to clear up that are out there,” Malzahn said. “First of all, my contract has not changed one bit. I was never told I had to change my contract to keep my job. I have the support of our athletic director and president. There’s nobody hamstringing me from doing our job."

Exactly! It's mostly about motivation in these bowls. Do you think Wisconsin had more talent than Miami? Of course not, and the Canes got thoroughly embarrassed. Going by who has a better record and who beat who is just a small part of the bowl "equation".

I agree with what your saying, and im not splitting hairs but were still guessing that Auburn will not be motivated in this game. I mean its their QBs last game with the team, im sure he will be motivated to at the very least improve his draft stock, and if i could pick 1 position to have a motivated player playing it would be QB.

[BigdaddyQH]

There you guys go making something out of nothing again. It is real simple. If Auburn shows up and decides to play, they win. If Auburn shows up, has a good time in Nashville, and mails it in, they lose. If I were wagering on the game, I would take the team that wants this game more, and that clearly is Purdue. Other things to consider. The Doggies are on a 6-0 run. The Big 10 is 2-0 in bowl games, winning both rather easily.

I liked that for dukes qb yesterday, I don’t think stidam worth a fukk tho. Anyone drafting him really desperate and really stupid. I can’t think of a team other than gmen he improves the qb situation on!!

[Sam Odom]

QH

good luck on your bets today and in the future

[Sam Odom]

Sammy gone... out for breakfast then to watch game with friend and foe alike

Can't argue with you there, hes only thrown 5 pics all year i guess he kinda reminds alittle bit of Alex Smith, but i don't think anything will help giants until they get an O-Line.

[Renegades]

The issue with Malzahn is that he is supposed to be an offensive genius yet his offense is avg at best every year. Why do they not improve? Why cant they throw the ball? If they were 7-5 every year and scoring 35 pts a game his seat would be a lot less hot. He needs to prove that he can get the offense going otherwise where is he adding value?

I hope Stidham shows up -- On the OVER as well!
