Only Holden can help us moving forward.
Where is Keldrick Faulk?
Getting pushed around somewhere 😂
It’s not the Wide Receivers, it’s The Quarterback.
I've been behind Thorne all season..........until now. I was totally wrong and now's the time to give Robby his shot as a starter. Robby deserves a chance to show what he can do.
Freeze went and got him and it's hard to say maybe I was wrong
All I got to say is we move the ball with Robby. We take him out the offense dies
So then why doesn't he start. Something is going on
Exactly he the one
I see the same thing… I do wonder if it would get shut down too if he can’t pass.
@@thomasdickey1397Freeze has said that Peyton looks great in practice but just hasn’t performed in games. Well, at some point, the coaches have to say Peyton is a practice king but we need someone to do it in the game.
Payton moved the ball 75 yards down the field on our first TD and got Robby into the red zone to finish the second TD. I am not sure what you are seeing. Robby had a great pass down the field but that was about it. He also did well in the red zone but I'm not sure that means he replaces Payton when Payton is who got us into scoring positions
Let me cut to the chase, start Robby Ashford for the rest of the season. End of discussions
We have to move past Peyton, there was a series where Robbie was in, moving the ball and then they plug Peyton back in and things stall out. Our receivers/TEs aren’t bailing anyone out either. One dimensional or not, Auburn is a running team this year and Robbie optimizes that ten fold, not to mention he can throw the ball, he’s not the greatest but neither is Peyton
The offense was clearly moving the ball on that drive, and then he puts Thorne in and blah... I knew we didn't have A shot to make it close, because he was clearly going to keep going with Thorne.
The ENTIRE team plays with an edge when Robby on the field , He is there leader he’s put it all on the line every single time on the field , Thorne seems shook (deer in headlight) Robby makes hunter and Battie better not to mention Cobb WE could be a dominant rushing team and mediocre passing at least ( nick marshall ) but for heaven’s sake please sit Thorne
Hugh Freeze is Gus Malzahn Jr SMH
Either play Robby or Holden. Thorne is not it. Period. It's really an easy decision at this point.
Put #9 in the Game Thorne is done!!! Let Robby play the whole game!!!!
What do we have to lose now by playing robby.
Play Robby not Payton come on man
The last time Auburn was close to good we had Jarrett Stidham and Keerryon Johnson
Exactly! Was good in 2019, but it wasn’t because Bo Nix was good. Defense was just playing on a championship level.
Exactly! Was good in 2019, but it wasn’t because Bo Nix was good. Defense was just playing on a championship level.
Freeze doesnt want to admit he missed on thorne. This is insanity. Everyone knows what insanity is
The guys are open and thorne doesn't see them.
Over and over, Luke Deal running behind the defense hand up in the first half, identical play we ran at TAMU and he didn't see him again, cannot "scheme" around that.
@autk this isn't on harsin. The bottom line is he isn't using the strength of this team.nthe running backs. We will not win another game with thorne starting. I hate tonsay it but perhaps Mullins should be brought in. It seems the game has passed freeze by
Boise absolutely weakened this team and the roster, but we could be winning ballgames with Robby Ashford and our roster right now, hard to believe CHF is being this stubborn about his QB1 decision.
I think there’s a bigger issue with booster involvement. That’s the only reason they hold on to Payton Thorne. Auburn has a lot of great QBs that would start and shine on other teams (Ashford, Geriner, Brown).
This is making freeze look like he doesn't have a clue 😳
Auburn offense is worse than a bad LSU defense especially on the road
Been very patient with Thorne saying we need to trust Freeze this whole time. I’m over that. Robby needs to start and that needs to be the end of it. If he had started this whole season I PROMISE you we are a better team and Robby is a dawg that’s not afraid of the moment, Thorne is
that's what I've been saying too. even if Thorne understands the offense better in the abstract, everyone has a plan till they get punched in the mouth. and when it breaks down, which is like all the time in college football, I'd much rather have a beast of an athlete than someone who thinks a mullet makes him tougher
I'd wager we are 5-1, maybe even better...can you imagine the energy and production if we never brought the transfer in and coached up our own??...I did, before we went down this path, and so did many others and said so at the time... bringing in a summer transfer was always going to be risky, the better players came out of the December end of the season portal and the late portal means fall camp only,
running around in the summer chunking the ball around never does jack...and many pointed this out at the time, yet we decided we just had to and took "whatever was available" to.quote several analyst's....unity and cohesion is important, everyone pulling together is where we were after the Spring with a clear pecking order and TJ on the way out...
grasping at straws in search of a hero caused this debacle.
My comment on the war rapport was taken the wrong way when I said hugh needed to step back from recruiting just a little and get his hands on this season and on this offense more. I just think hugh needs to step in and either take over play calling or game planning completely. And spend all his time at every practice with that offense not step away completely from recruiting, but enough to help this team, this year. The product you put on the field is a big part of recruiting anyway. (Robbie needs to start, 1st week ive said that) he's the better option.
I'm pretty sure at this point we are going to see some staff changes at OC come end of year. If it looks like this much more maybe sooner. It's not just scheme and play calling although we saw the same tired screen passes we've seen in the opening series of every game so far and they never work. There is failure at just pure execution and timing everywhere that just should have improved after two weeks to prep for this game. I'm pretty sure CHF took over second half as I saw him with the card and we saw some improvements but there is failure to get these things worked out across the coaching staff.
I don't know if everyone noticed but we cleary do not have the talent. Rogers is ten times better than Jones
Lindsay looking different...😂
I don’t understand let Robby run the offense and things will immediately improve. You might not win but it will be less ugly
Locked on Auburn is the only positive about the Auburn program at this point. I’m just glad you guys feel the same way most of us do and we’re not just crazy fans that have unreal expectations. I’m with Dap, I don’t understand why or how we’re not further along at this point
We try to play too many receivers. Can’t develop chemistry if constantly switching to multiple receivers.
If our starting qb had better ball placement the receivers would be better…. Can’t expect the receivers to catch what supposed to be 50/50 balls but the qb turns them into 25/75 balls
And we shouldn't be counting on contested 50/50 balls anyway, ludicrous LOW percentage offense.
Bring back Gene Chizik
I’d never thought I’d mis ole Gus Bus but…
Nah it’s not that bad!! Good riddance to doofus malzahn
you forget he just blew like a 4 td lead to baylor and then got absolutely blown out by kansas?
He's 0-3 in the Big 12 will be 0-4 after the annihilation coming next week to Oklahoma...
We may not even make a bowl game
Hugh freeze has been an disappointment so far. There's been plenty of coach who have made an impact the first year, so i dont want to hear anything about this being his first year
Anyone who watched the game could tell Auburn does not have the talent they need.
@@gamingdreams2142 it’s not about talent .. we have seen less talented team do better than what we’ve seen.. but it’s clearly an effort thing .. when you feel like your set up to lose you tend to not have that same feelings towards doing it
Cobb and battie is the combo right now
Come on robby let robby be the starter teh offense starting actually when robby start because they started driving down the field
Hey guys 🧍🏽♂️
Z blacker y is “ The Best!
Everyone wanted Thorne, well we got him😂😂😂
It's time to start Robby for the rest of the year Payton is not working I'm sorry but he's not ready
We as fans have two issues. First and foremost, we let the close game with Georgia give us a little to much hope. Then LSU decided to put together their best game of the year.
Guys, Ole Miss is gonna be a two score favorite in JHS. Let that sink in...
Nope they will easily be a 21 point favorite because they defeated LSU
We look like a team to get paid to play us
The O Line has regressed as well!
They will be better next week😂
Told you guys we needed to put a QB spy on Daniels to have a chance 😅
I was reading the titles of the videos of this week leading up to this game and then this title 😅. I just though it was funny how the build up looked.
Someone needs to ask coach the tough questions in the presser. If yall dont have the ballsntomdomit hellni will. If i had access to ask one i would
What happened last drive before half....
🏋♂️🔄🤹
Holden G should enter the portal now. If they won’t give you a shot behind Thorne, then you’re never getting a shot.
I been behind Payton but that yankee needs to be benched. Wexare loaded at runing back but play calling sucks.
Is Markus Davis (our WR coach) a problem? I know we have more than one problem….but the WR play just makes you wonder.
Robby Robby Robby Robby Robby!
First question should be coachlsu has strugglednwith stopping the run so why did u open with 10 straight passes
Like i said this will get fixed maybe next year i got faith in freeze but this year is a wrap we not gone even make it to a bowl game
So lsu is not good at stopping run so we co.e out with 10 straight passes
This is a direct result of horrendous recruiting over the last 5-6 years. I hope that fans now realize how bare this cupboard actually is compared to the talent level in the SEC. You were living in a fantasy world if you thought Freeze could come in and fix this mess in one year. I do think that he should be calling plays moving forward. That’s his thing.
I agree. We all gotta start being more realistic and understand we're just not there yet.
It’s about improving week in week out, we haven’t done that. Plus we had a great transfer class, if they don’t pan out they don’t pan out but we all know the play calling is trash too. So let’s be a little honest we look worse than we should at this point
LSU tigers
So has the game passed freeze by. Its hard to believe that he regressed as a coach that much.
Auburn likes giving away money. Buyout loading……
@chrisbrown8641 I've figured it out. Why freeze takes robby out when we start moving g the ball with him. He knows robby is better and if he keeps him in he knows we'll see it and it will make him look bad for making a bad decision so instead of doing what's right he wants to save face. I'd have more respect for him if he'd just own it and say hey I misevaluated Payton and we are moving g on with Robby. I think we all could live with that
Crazy that Auburn hasn’t had an offense in YEARS
Recruits fixing to jump ship like it's the FKn Titanic.
Thorne is a disappointment. Several times in several games he didn’t do his check downs where other receivers were wide ass open. The receivers need to step up too and catch the ball and stop being to passive and timid!
Auburn will not win a single SEC game this year.
Freeze needs to call plays and Ashford needs to start. End of story. I’m sick of watching Thorne look like a deer in headlights.
Been watching the show for a couple weeks now and every week I realize you guys have never put a helmet on in your life
This is very bad news. Our next win may very well be New Mexico State.
Let me get this straightened out! So ever time Robby comes into the game the offense moves the ball then some how for so idiotic reason he put Thorne in and the offense stalls 🤔 can anyone tell me why His Malzahn Jr. Is insisting on starting Payton?
Z blacker y is The Best ! for having an objective perspective calling a Spade ♠️ a Spade ♠️
How about this? The WR's are not playing their hearts out because when they look in the eyes of their starting QB they don't see a Warrior or any fire in his eyes to spark them. As a matter of fact, I feel the entire team will play better if they look into the eyes of a true field general. The MVP is on the bench!
Where you talking heads miss it is when you talked so much about how bad LSU D is. What you apparently forgot is that although they haven’t played well before second half of Mizzou, these are still 4 & 5 star players with pride. The confidence in Auburn or A&M coming to tiger stadium and winning was always looney 😂!
LSU trolls
@@autktrolling with that ass whipping of AU by 30. Lmao
I understand why freeze hired an oc. He did it because he was going to ve busy recruiting and other things so he needed someone to run the offense. Now that freeze is here and coaching he needs to take over play calling
Already wasted enough money and time on QB. Spend the rest of season on Robbie. It is a win win situation for Auburn as a whole.
9. That’s it.
Keionte Scott tweeted the same and players around Robby near the bench when he was pulled after the second half drive and 40 yd bomb for points doesn't lie,
we have dissention and the players know who should be playing. Chaos due to a poor decision on QB1.
I think it’s time all of those Thorne homers admit they were wrong. Called it before he stepped foot on campus. And here we are with an offense that’s worse than last year BECAUSE of HIM. I was at this game and the entire Auburn section was calling and cheered for RA
Same thing I saw last night, and pointed out when we were coming out of spring and the transfer hero talk started ...hope they are happy, but you can bet most will never admit they were wrong.
With thorne we wont win another game
I would understand swapping quarterbacks if Payton could complete a pass. How is Holden Geriner not playing?
Bingo! Thats my concern! Why not Geriner? I see Payton run out against Ole Miss? Im done. Jesus christ 6 games in and you want to discontinue thst same pattern?
This is on Freeze! I hated this hire from the beginning. He beats Saban twice and they hired him? Is that what this program has become now. Everything is centered around Bama.
Plz plz plz can we stop blaming coaches for the players not stepping up. You think everyone gone let you run the football nope teams know that's all we can do.
coaches deserve blame for the qb situation, other than that I agree with you
Even with Deions debacles the last few weeks. There is way more excitement around this program if you bring him in. It’s no excitement right now for this year or next. Just a bunch of questions
Excitement or not their defense is putrid just like ours. But to be up by 29 and lose is unacceptable. Rebuild or not, get his head out of his ass and coach.
@@tigergirlkita I’m not disagreeing with that. The difference is “WE” know recruits are coming to play for prime? Who is coming to play for Auburn is the question.
Right.
We also wouldn't have a QB issue right now
What we have to loose from this point. Start Robbie and see how it goes from there. At least we know Robbie tries really hard and he shows it. Thorne looks like oh well. We win great we lose oh well. Not my fault i threw the ball receiver didn't catch it 😅
The better team won, and by the margin described just how much better than Auburn is a LSU team. LSU’s backup QB is twice as good as the starter for Auburn. BAMA is next baby
Peyton Thorne deserves all the blame. All the receivers are open. Also Robby was throwing dimes
Now we know why Michigan State did not make Throne their starting QB.
Y’all are crapping me i said it then and I’ll say it now AU should’ve hired PRIME TIME
was never an option here. whether you agree or not doesn’t matter, it was not a consideration
If freeze loses the locker room he may not get it back then hes a lame duck and might as well resign. I hate tonsay it
Far Freeze!
Finally y’all see what I’ve been seeing all year. QB1 is on the bench
6-6 maybe
Nope Auburn goes 4-9
Zach I didnt know you changed your name to Lindsay crosby? 😂
You gotta put Robby in before it's too late we'll be in the situation we we're in last season
Why not stop trying to explain this spanking away and just give LSU credit for being a good football team with the most complete offense in the country!
How about LSU trolls g t h o
You won, go crow on your boards and channels, this isn't about you here Danno, f f s ...be gone!
🙏 Zack for keeping us informed
I know EVERYONE that is a War Eagle is frustrated. Based on what Freeze has done at his previous stops pertaining to the offense I never expected this to happen. Zach touched on it if Freeze had been a defensive coach one could kinda make an excuse for it, but he’s NOT he’s an offensive coach.
Let Ashford or Grenier have a shot at being the full time starter Thorne has had 6 games to be the MAN abut he’s NOT.
This is likened to the 2d Alabama game when fans were clamering for another qb. Saban replaced Jalen for the other 2 qb's. They were terrible. Jalen then settled in as the qb and they are playing better. Auburn needs to settle in with Robby Ashford. The players respond to him as evidenced by what is seen on the field. Robby provides an energy that is both physical and nonpyhysical. Leave him in and inject this team with his electricity.
Robby*
I was all for Thorne when we got him. 60+%, 6000 yrds, etc. But damn man. I HATE the 2 qb crap. Robby was driving... The you break the flow by putting PT back in, annnnd punt. drives me bonkers. And where has Frazier been all year. All I've heard was he and Deal were "blocking" TE's.... Man he was awesome! But ill eat my crow now and say Robby us QB1 for me now, even tho i fully expect Freeze to say tomorrow how this wasn't on PT somehow.
It was pathetic showing. Poor game planning. We will be lucky to make the bowl game. Freeze need to suck it up and cater the offense around Robby.
Lol at ALL of the Robby haters😂😂 I tried to tell you guys that PT is NOT the better QB😎🥶🦅
It’s hard to watch sometimes but gonna take a couple of years to turn this around. Just scared Thorne will still be the starter next season.
Depends on what we do in the portal. Walker White will be there but I don’t think u wanna start him as a freshman unless he’s just that much better than everyone else. Which I’m sure he will be after awhile of being at AU.
Problem is we are regressing.
WRs can't throw the ball to themselves.
How much is it going to cost to buy Freeze out? Hardly matters. Auburn is already king of the buy-outs. Freeze will solidify that crown for us for years to come. Good to be the best at something.
We need to forfeit the rest of season. We are going loose our commitments
That is the dumbest comment on this thread. That is not, and never has been, how first year recruiting works. It has zero effect. And forfeit the rest of the season? Just such a stupid comment
Told you guys after the California game, Thorne is not a SEC qb. The team plays different with Robby in the game, so even they are telling coaches and fans who needs to start at qb. At this point whoever evaluated Thorne has to realize they made a mistake, and move to the next game plan with Robby.
Zac having Lindsay Crosby as his name is great.
It’s simple. We suck.
I think there are two types of 1st year coaches. Those who want to win quickly and those who strictly want to rebuild. What scares me, it doesn’t seem like Freeze cares to even try and coach this team. Or, he’s too nice and needs to replace some coaches and players.
Auburn hired the wrong coach!
There is more than just concern for this team.
I have concluded that Freeze has no interest in developing this current roster. He did not recruit them and did not care about their development. He only wants to cynically use their deficiencies
as a recruiting tool. He did not have a fraction of the talent at Liberty as he has now. Look at the difference in the play calling and scheming. I do not recall him essentially telling those guys they were not talented enough and would lose before playing the game. Freeze was my first choice after Gus was fired. I celebrated when he was hired two years later. Unfortunately, I am starting to regret it.
You said a mouth full and I agree ‼️
