Abraham, you’re not making any sense. In your post right here, you agree that Auburn wouldn’t have won the 2010 NC without Cam Newton. You stated in an earlier post that Newton wasn’t the reason why Auburn won the 2010 NC. This was a quote from you, “Spare me any BS about Auburn winning the NC that year being a foregone conclusion simply because of Cam”. Maybe you should read YOUR posts again, before commenting to others. I noticed everyone is having a hard time understanding what point you’re trying to make, and I can understand why. You are a very confusing Auburn fan.

For you to say Gene Cheesedick is a great coach, is very laughable. Look at how Gene Cheesedick has been at Auburn before & after Cam Newton. Great coaches don’t have two horrible seasons, after being two years removed from a National Championship.

Bullshit! McCarron would have sucked it up and been a phenomenal freshman if it had been necessary. He might have struggled for one game if he were thrown in cold turkey, but if he knew he was going to be the man he would have been brilliant. The man is exceptionally talented. Neither of his OC’s would trade him for any QB in the SEC. You are out of your fucking mind about the Iron Bowl. As a backup who had played about 20 downs in his career I’d wager even Luck would have fucked up being thrown into that horrible situation. Besides that all 4 of his passes were catchable and the officials let the Great SEC National Championship Hope mug the Bama receivers on all four downs – especially Julio on 4th down which would have been a first down. in fact when Julio catches a ball it can be a TD from anywhere. Stupid homer. RTR!

Hoopoopooty, HOOPIE:

Yeah, Bama grads work for the REDNECK Auburn farmers. I’m sure ALABAMA FANS OF ALL COLORS & Nationalities work for the Auburn Grad bigots who own hundreds of acres, yet pay their illegal aliens 10 cents an hour, thus destroying the “American Dream” for the hardworking rednecks you chastise, you hypocritical Christian. Does your wife still give favors for the black folk on Martin Luther King Day?

Wow, what a lot of speculation and excuses, all in one post. McCarron is 14-1 as a starter, so don’t know why you would knock a quality player like that. You are talking about 1 drive coming off the bench late in the game and speculating on that.

The truth is, in a system like Bama runs, the QB play is important, but you don’t have to have an All-American QB to execute it and win. LSU, same thing. You know, you have read all the ‘game manager’ talk by now. But the offensive scheme Auburn ran last season, well, you HAVE to have a really good QB or you are dead in the water. Cam’s play in 2010 elevated players around him as well. Auburn caught lightning in a bottle that year, and even with the great Cam Newton, Auburn HAD to come from behind by double digits in 5 games. The Auburn D gave up way too many points, and it took great QB play from Cam to make up for it.

I disagree with saying Tim Tebow is equal to Cam Newton, or that Florida failed to beat Alabama in the SEC title game because Urban Meyer wasn’t a better coach than….Chizik?

They lost a game, the one that mattered. Every title team nearly does the same thing.

But take out Cam Newton and the 2008 Florida team I still think is better than Auburn in 2010, including the coaching. I think it’s a stretch to say Auburn won their title because of Chizik rather than in spite of Chizik.

Then again, Chizik probably is the reason why Auburn won the title. I think you should keep him. Yes, definitely don’t consider Chizik part of the problem, but the solution. He’s better than Urban Meyer, I’m sure, right?

ummm, Crimsonite….what in the #@!$ are you talking about with your scenario of McElroy getting hurt at halftime in the BCS title game? We’re talking about a QB’s importtance to the team overall, not one half a game where the other team’s All American QB has already been knocked out the game. If Bama would have had to rely on McCarron as a true freshman in 2009 all year you would have celebrated New Year’s in Memphis at the Liberty Bowl, and Bama ceratinly would have lost to Auburn. Before you wet your pants about that, you might want to remember McCarron’s stellar perfomance in relief of McElroy in the 2010 Iron Bowl when all Bama needed was a 35 yard drive to get in field goal range. He couldn’t even make a first down. There’s no way he could have led that 4th qtr TD drive in Auburn a year earlier.

I didn’t mention the 2008 season. You did in some bizarre attempt to divert attention from the point I was making. My point is simple: In 2007, Florida’s QB had the most dominant season in NCAA history and they didn’t win a championship. They didn’t because they didn’t have team chemistry or a defense that was capable of stepping up to the plate when it mattered. In 2008 (the only season you want to talk about), Florida did have team chemistry and better play on defense, i.e better coaching. Guess what? They won both the SEC and NC. They also won those titles despite the fact that Tebow’s numbers were worse in 2008 than they were in 2007. It takes more than dynamic QB play to win championships, it also takes solid coaching. Urban Meyer didn’t provide that in 2007, but he did in 2008. Chizk provided it in 2010, but he sure doesn’t seem to be doing so right now.

Actually, Tim Tebow did win both an SEC title and a BCS National Championship. Don’t you remember when Florida ended Alabama’s perfect 2008 season in the SEC title game?

Are you trying to say Tim Tebow didn’t do it but the team did? Or are you just trying to say Florida wouldn’t have won the title without him?

I think you’re right. Florida’s team would have won the championship that year without Tebow.

That’s because Cam Newton was Tebow’s replacement.

Auburn wouldn’t have won without Cam Newton.

Yes that’s basically what you said – along with a lot of other generic shit to try and make a point that is pure bullshit. Where you are all fucked up is trying to lump Scam together with the QB’s of other schools and their relative importance to those schools Natty chances. For instance. If McElroy had been hurt at halftime against Texas with our running game we still would have won with McCarron at QB. If McCarron had been hurt last year we still would have won it with Simms. If Simms hadn’t left the same would be even more true this year. As for McCarron’s importance this year, it is an abnormal situation since nobody would expect to lose a backup just as good as McCarron and be stuck with nothing but inexperienced 3* underclassmen. In comparison, if Awbie had lost Scam in any of about 8 or 9 games just for the second half of those games, they would have lost all of them. Why – because unlike the balanced Bama teams I mentioned, Scam was 90% of Awbies offense and 100% of their motivation. And even if by some hook or crook Bama didn’t go undefeated in those three seasons, they would have lost no more than 1 or 2 games, whereas without Scam Awbie wouldn’t have just had a losing season, they would have had their asses wiped all over the South East. RTR!

And why wasn’t you complaining about the stranglehold Lowder had on the Auburn board? I know you recite the Auburn creed everyday, being such a bastion for justice and what is good in the world and all, but where is your outrage at the secondary violations and questionable character recruits that have failed to live up to the creed? And wasn’t there something about so trees that was so important not so long ago?

Dang, even Bear Bryant still gets in this guys craw. Imagine all the Barn fans that had to deal with the inferiority the Bear made them feel, and now Saban is bringing it to them in a similar fashion. I guess Hoopty got his feelings hurt when Saban questioned his players about if they knew how much he hated Auburn, and the initial speech about dominating ‘the other school’ in this state. And he has lived up to every expectation that every Auburn fan doubted. Hoopty is just a sad, hateful little troll.

Be4bama, maybe you should bother to read my post before you comment. Here’s what I said just a few posts above: “By the way, I agree with you that Cam was far away the best player on AU’s team in 2010 and that AU wouldn’t have won the NC without him.” What part of that did you not understand?

Abraham are you on drugs?? There’s no way AU could of won the NC in 2010 without Cam. Best college football player I’ve ever seen, and I’ve seen a lot of football in my years. And you other trolls would you please shut up and get off our blog!!!

Conduit, you keep bringing Florida up and you are actually making a good point. Tim Tebow had the most dominant season a QB had ever had in 2007 (until Cam in 2010). It was the first time a QB had ever rushed and passed for over 20 tds. He won the Heisman as a sophomore. Know what he didn’t do? He didn’t win a championship, neither the SEC or the NC. See, it takes a lot more than a dominant QB to win a NC. Florida proved that in 2007.
