He's stayed aggressive. If he's made a mistake, it was settling for too many FGs early on and not accepting the fact that they simply cannot run on Alabama in the redzone.

 

BS.  His play calling has become predictable as the game has worn on.  If you want to give him the excuse of hurt players or lack of talent you got to do the same thing for Ron (which I refuse to do and therefore I refuse to watch Gus choke and not call it a choke).

Linn...I got no beef with you but "aggressive" and "too many FGs" don't go together.

I was refuting your claim that he was choking with the lead. If anything, he was being more aggressive with the lead. At least he understood that his team couldn't move the ball in the redzone and started taking shots from further out.

Auburn's biggest problems were that they kicked too many FGs early and their defense just couldn't hold up down the stretch.

Gus is a damn good coach. Just think what he could do with NFL caliber players. Without Malzahn, this same Auburn team would be unranked and looking putrid. He is doing all of this with Marshall at QB.

 

Again, I am sorry, but I disagree.  Auburn's payroll is higher than the Panthers.  Mike Singletary could get this Auburn team to #15 in the country and lose the Iron Bowl.

It's just my opinion but one flukey play (kick 6) doesn't define a stellar head coach.

That's exactly what I was telling my boss while we were watching the beginning of the game. You just can't do that against a Nick Saban coached team. Every point is valuable, but field goals just wont get it done against Bama.
