Cam didn’t have anything around him those other teams were stacked. Nick Fairly is the only player I can remember getting drafted early from that side 

Wow, I didn't even notice this.  You are right, it was Cam and Nick going in the 1st round.  Then there were two 7th round picks in that draft.  Only 1 Auburn guy got drafted the following year, and he was a 4th round pick.  Only 1 Auburn guy got drafted the year after that, and he was a 3rd round pick.

I just did a comparison to UNC around the same time and holy smokes its a night and day difference.  They were stacked with NFL talent.

Cam, and i may be wrong but isn't he the only QB ever to win national titles at two different levels.

Without Cam, Auburn doesn't sniff the SEC Champions and the National Title.

I may be a bit bias because my daughter was a student at Auburn when they won the title.  

Decent chance I saw her at the bars at some point, then

Michael Dyer and Philip Lutzenkirchen were also fabulous players. Dyer was a freshman. 

Cam carried the offense, though, just as Fairley carried the defense.

    • Holy poo, App State is 5-7 and in a bowl game. LOL! The dozens in attendance look thrilled to be there. Attendance is so light half the players' parents didn't even bother. 
    • I have said that about Morgan in his playing days looking at facing Bryce, he would be licking his chops. To present a case for Dan having some sanity. I mean no way a real player would fear him, right? But I am not sure any more.  
    • Bryce missed a number of opportunities yesterday. There were guys open but he had either already moved on from them or never even got to them in the progression. He doesn't have a guy right now that he trusts. It was TMac earlier in the season, but he and TMac are not on the same page all the time, and Coker is actually the best WR on the team right now. I know that hurts some feelings, but it's true. The oline got their lunch money taken all day. It was really bad. In both the run game and the pass game. You could see when the QB lost all confidence in them and that mental clock started to shorten. But as a QB you have to push through that and stand in the pocket, go through your progressions, and deliver an accurate ball on time.  But yeah, my biggest take away is that this offense lacks speed and a true playmaker. A couple of solid guys but no true playmaker. As much as BY checked down to RBs, they couldn't make a guy miss in one one opportunities. And they weren't even LBs. They were DBs. You have to make that guy miss.  If they're serious about winning right now and not about player development, then Jimmy Horn needs to take XLs snaps. They only put him in to influence the deep safety with fly routes - XL can do that. Jimmy can run a lot more of the route tree than XL right now. Also Etienne needs to play more snaps. If BY is gonna be a checkdown king, then they need someone that can actually do something with the ball in space. Interior oline is weak. They aren't very consistent getting to the second level. Outside runs are this team's bread and butter. Gotta embrace that.
