SMQ: AUBURN SPRING GAME COVERAGE=WOOOO COX.
Yes, Auburn just played their spring game. That's what happens when you begin spring practice three days after the Iron Bowl. Brandon Cox received eerily uniform and positive reviews for his performance in the game, according to SMQ's round-the-blogosphere coverage, but count SMQ justly skeptical after watching Cox droop under pressure as the 2006 season progressed. Remember that in Auburn's biggest win, the 27-17 home defeat of Florida, the offense failed to score a single touchdown, with Auburn benefiting from the generosity of the Gator offense and that cursed blocked punt sponsored by Pontiac, whose cars we will never purchase as a result--take that, bastard-dogs of Detroit!
We'd weep for that loss, were we not sipping another round of Rusty Nails from Troy Smith's skull, delivered courtesy of Jarvis Moss and Derrick Harvey. In honor of the transitive property national champion Auburn Tigers, Lee Corso says War Eagle to you, Tiger Nation.

He was never the same after LSU. That and Borges has basically admitted that without a recieving corps, Tub was going to take advantage of his new clock rule and strangle the life from games. The result? A season not unlike a $7 whore… wasn’t pretty but it damn sure worked…

no QB in the nation took more punishment than Cox did in ‘06 and he kept getting up off the turf to post an 11 win season. Besides, Cox didn’t need a TD to beat ’dem Gators

Cox’s knee was FUCKED most of the season… see 2005 where, while not a scrambler, he could move in the pocket to buy an extra second or two. In 06 it was like he WANTED to get sacked. He just didn’t move his lower body after his drop. Hopefully he’s had time to heal and he can live up to his potential now… he can be the best in the SEC, or one of the worst.

Yeah, Cox could be the best, the worst, or something in between. Of this, I’m absolutely certain.
Write that down.

Wouldn’t “WOOOO COX” be more appropriate for the Spring game in Columbia?
Speaking of COX and Columbia, is there any truth to the rumor that South Carolina is talking about scheduling Troy? Please say yes.

Down’ here in ‘bama on the Roundtable they are saying that the spring game looked good for the Aubies. O-Line looked okay, but it was against a neutered defense that could not blitz/stunt/kill Cox etc. Running back position is LOADED at Auburn- 4 deep. They said Cox was throwing harder and was more mobile than he’s been in two years. It remains to be seen though whether that new o-line will keep him from getting beat up like pound-me-in-the-ass-federal-prison.
Oh yeah, Auburn…..32,000 at your spring game??? We’re sellin’ out B-Denny for ours now that Saban’s here. SABAN THE BEST FOR LAST!!!!! ROLL TIDE!!!

If you look very carefully, the first person to walk toward the camera (before the cop) may very well be James Brown. If not, I am sure it is some other free-baseing, rotting soul just showing their love for the war eagles.
by King Harvest on Mar 19, 2007 4:58 PM EDT reply actions
Yeah, Auburn didn’t score any offensive TDs, but here is what it did do -
Auburn passed for more yards than Florida.
Had more 3rd down conversion to go with one 4th down conversion.
Did convert 4 FGs in the entire game.
Auburn hold on to the ball for 13 more minutes than Florida did.
So even though Auburn didn’t have any offensive TDs to show, its offense was a lot more efficient than many of the people are giving credit for.

It doesn’t matter. Hate is hate, regardless of whether or not it’s the proper venue. I hate Alabama and everything they stand for: Living in the past, win at all costs, treat Auburn fans like they’re second class because of the team they root for, even in real life, non-football situations. Their beloved Bryant calls us “cow college,” and refuses to play at our home stadium for years, and they call us classless. He says “If a laundromat in Tuscaloosa gives us a national title, we’ll take it” and they make fun of us for claiming 2004 as a national championship. Fuck Bama.

Thanks for the memories.
Last 34 minutes of the AU-UF game – UF had 90 yards of total offense.
Note to tOSU: to make Urban Decay, don’t play pussy-soft-zone. Grab a LB and smack the QB upside the head.

Amazing how in the “Information Age” people can still have such selective memories. Auburn out-gained Florida in that game 315-279, just couldn’t punch it in. Regardless, Corso still sucks.

You’re complaining about the blocked punt that Pontiac kept replaying? Really? Florida won the national championship…there is nothing to complain about.
Of course, they wouldn’t have won without that freak of nature Jarvis Moss blocking field goals, which I had to watch over and over on the Pontiac commercials. So you can save your crying for Nov. 10 at Williams Brice.

That’s actually true, the last time Alabama beat Auburn, we weren’t at war in Iraq. The last time Alabama beat Auburn, no one had heard of Paris Hilton or seen her naked. The last time Alabama beat Auburn, there was no Homeland security act. The last time Alabama beat Auburn, Maurice Clarett was a promising recruit. The Red Sox were still cursed. None of the Lord of the Rings movies had been released.
That’s been a while. Look forward to more of this.

Lose 2-3 games in September after playing Arkansas, Georgia, and MAYBE Florida State and follow that up with games against LSU, Tennessee, and Auburn so that makes what? 7-5? 6-6?
Was $4 Million a year worth that extra possible win?
And I’m glad you will continue to be a Bama fan. I have to respect the stalwart to the fairweather fan…

Brandon Cox, as a rising senior QB who has not yet lived up to they hype despite starting for at least 2 years, really has no chance of turning it around and having a break out senior year. Because that just plain never happens. Well, except for Chris Leak.
OK, so it never happens at Auburn. Well, except for Jason Campbell.
OK, so it never happens to a white quarterback at Auburn. Well, except Stan White.

I wonder if Saban likes being called the second coming? No this is a serious question. Mike Price and others sort of embrace being “the second best coach” but Saban sort of strikes me as the kind of guy who will be at Elmwood Cemetary with a car battery trying to resuscitate the corpse and challenge it to a fight for superiority. I’m not saying he’s disrespectful just saying I don’t think he’d want to be the second coming of anything.
