Arkansas vs Auburn

[HTL]

Such a simpleton view. If you can't see that Petrino isn't the problem, and that by the numbers our offense is easily top 20, then you can't be helped. This is Sams team and Bobby's trying to make chicken salad out of chicken shit.

You don't like him, cool. You have a record of not liking alpha males. But your judgement has been clouded by your hate/dislike.

I have a record of not liking alpha males...what in the devils hell.

Hiring a 65 year old that no one else wants is our best option? Klenakis, Grantham...dear god.

You're the one saying you hope Sumrall or Goshen is better.

Okay now address the rest of the post.

"But we're losing!!!" No shit Sherlock, and that has fuck all to do with Petrino. He probably called the worst game I've ever seen him call today, but we were still in it with our shit for talent and zero depth thanks to Sam.

And our offense is easily in the top 20 in the country, not in spite of, but because of Petrino.

Arkansas has a killer offense and a horrendous defense.
Auburn has a killer defense and a horrendous offense.

Their bad was a little better than our bad.
Their good was a little better than our good.

We were looking at Auburn like a rent a win.
They were looking at us the same way.

That's the story. Everything else is just HTL being an old man yelling at clouds, forcing us to listen when no one cares.

We were Top 20 under Briles too. Should we consider hiring him?

Well said.

Burn it down to the foundation and start over.

Yeah, I'm there. Fuck it.

I don't know. Can you remind me again what his record as a head coach is?

[Borenutz]

Hell if we had anything close to auburns defense, we'd be in the top 10. Even with Jekyll and Hyde Green.

With Barry Odom as his DC, or a defensive staff who all got fired 5 games into the season?

[Usafhawg]

Previous records have as much to do with what is going on now as their Top 20 ranking as an OC does.
What is Bobby's record his last 5 years of head coaching?

[Usafhawg]

With Barry Odom or a defensive staff who all got fired 5 games into the season?

Huh? You lost me on that one. Now the defense is responsible for how good the offense is?

[Barton Fink]

Who is the better option and why? I just don't see a better realistic option out there.

This is an unlikely alliance. Bobby lost a bunch of games with Lamar at Louisville. He's about to be 65 years old and no decent coaches want to work for him.

[DrMongoose]

3rd QTR offense is and has been ass.
defenses make adjustments and does bobby make them as well? probably but he continues to rely on a QB who can't make the adjustments, continues to go to the wrong option/route, and can't read a defense.

it's the pelfrey effect all over again. rinse and repeat.

2nd half drives end in:
punt
FG
INT
Fumble
INT
INT

Defense gave up 1 TD and 6 FGs - not sure you could ask more of that group.

Bobby's only chance now is beat Teasip, which as we all know is the one thing that unites the money people.

[BleedinRed]

How do you know this is true?

28-28, if I'm not mistaken.

Previous records have a great deal to do with deciding on a Head Coach at a D1 university. Kendal Briles has been an assistant coach for 17 years with absolutely no Head Coach experience. Remind you of anyone?

[Barton Fink]

How do you know this is true?

He doesn't

[TC]

You made the comparison of Briles offense to Petrinos offensive numbers, with no regard for the other side of the ball. Briles had a great coordinator to complement him, while Petrino has/had little talent and no depth, and a gutted staff on the other side.

Petrino has earned the right to change that.

Long track record.
