May Madness – Baseball Regional Shockers

Oh, my goodness. Let’s hear again about the almighty power of the B1G…

Say it with me, class…for the first time ever…yikes.

Meanwhile, in Tallahassee…

And here’s another to shut the RPI nitwits up…all those folks screaming about Auburn and their RPI can explain this…the only team in the Regionals with a LOSING RECORD knocks off the #4 Barners on their home turf…

Milwaukee started the season going 5-23, to finish with a 26-31 record. They did win the Horizon League, though, so hopefully that will soothe the Auburn souls. Note: it will not…check the Saturday Message Board Geniuses post.

Also, this is the May 30th reminder that Auburn sucks.

In other news…Georgia didn’t get to finish off Long Island University, being up 15-1 in the 6th when the deluge hit.

Message Board Geniuses: Why Do They Hate on Auburn?

Awwww. A Barner has a feel.

Lord Jesus, help this person find the strength to deal with this, as it seems there’s no relenting in the foreseeable future, unless Auburn gets really, really good in a really, really short period of time.

Personally, I don’t ever instigate with a “Go Dawgs”. I’ll only say this to another Georgia fan in solidarity, but I won’t say anything to anyone otherwise. Usually, it’s Alabama fans who’ve been the most vocal, with all the “Roll Tides” and all, but I don’t hear much from Auburn fans, who’ve largely gone dormant over the past decade, it seems.

Just another reminder that Auburn sucks, and will continue to do so for eternity.

This…this is, this is great.

How it ended (ignoring Saturday’s hiccup):

Works for me. Go Dawgs!

What a Long, Strange Trip It’s Been

This is something to behold.

Remove the Big XII schools from this, and it’s not a shock that we had the best record in the SEC in the 1980s. It feels like we should’ve been lower in the 90s, but the upward trajectory starting the 2010s is refreshing, finish with 100 wins for the decade and, of course, now owning the best records in the 20’s.

What’s equally refreshing to see is where Florida and Auburn are in the 2020s, exactly where they deserve to be.

FTMFs.

Top 5 Tilt on the Plains: #4 Georgia versus #5 Auburn

PSA, the final series of the year has a first pitch of Thursday night (tomorrow) and 8 pm. And it’ll be a biggun.

Technically tied for fourth in the SEC with Alabama, Auburn is highly regarded and could use Georgia to boost their RPI and improve their postseason standings with a series win. SEC Tournament is up next…but with Georgia projected as #3 by some media outlets and looking to host a Super Regional (fingers crossed we don’t implode), it’s just as important to the Diamond Dawgs.

Oh, and Thursday night is Senior Night and Wear Orange night on the Plains.

Go Dawgs, and reminder…Auburn Sucks!

Serious Question: Why Does Auburn Suck?

Shot:

Chaser:

Serious question…given the location, the hotbed of talent they can recruit from just like their counterparts in Tuscaloosa and Athens…the years of tradition and passionate fans…

Why does Auburn suck this bad? Granted, it couldn’t happen to a more deserving team, outside of Florida, Tennessee, Alabama, but looking at these couple of stats, it’s somewhat amazing that Auburn’s been this historically bad for this long.

Does anyone know what happened? Meddling big boosters? The Rise of Alabama in the 90s and 2000s? An Aztec curse?

Curious for your thoughts.

Message Board Geniuses – Auburn sucks edition

How far has Auburn fallen? They think they are going to become Indiana.

For those who think the Indiana blueprint is easy to copy, I have some oceanfront real estate in Hahira to sell you.

We’re also going to see how sustainable the Indiana model is going forward now that all of the COVID players are pretty much gone now.

Refugees, discuss.

Brendan Sorsby is already looking at the money line for CFP to follow suit. Not a matter of IF, but more like when.

Shorter:

The mechanics of the expansion in the men’s tournament would include eight additional at-large bids. What’s known now as the First Four — eight teams playing four games in Dayton, Ohio — would expand to 12 games played by 24 teams at two sites, one of which was expected to remain in Dayton.

So not too drastic of an expansion, but it would’ve allowed for Auburn, Champions of the NIT and likely West Virginia, who won the post-season College Basketball Crown, to have participated in the NCAA Tournament. While this would’ve quieted the Barners and Daddy Pearl’s griping about not getting it, it would’ve stolen the false sense of pride that Aubie could get from winning a lesser tournament, as it’s hard to see Auburn making the Final Four givn the product on the floor.

But, as we all know, that’s not the driving force behind this. Quite frankly, it’s more of that sweet, sweet green that college sports champions so much today.

Like oil barons, we keep drilling for more and more revenue until it’s all used up and barren.

Money, for the win.

Your G-Day Game Reminder that Auburn Sucks: Adding a Fuzzy Carpet Covering to Grandma’s Toilet Seat Cover

How do you turn a shit house into an outhouse? Easy. Just add some layers and fancy decorations and call it what you will. But it’s still just Jordan-Hare.

Another reminder that today’s your cheapest day to sit and enjoy football in the greatest stadium in the most glorious college town on earth. Get out and touch grass, Refugees.

Go Dawgs.

Golf Pairings Can Make for Strange Bedfellows

I think I’d like to be a caddy just to overhear some of the conversations that would arise from these Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl golf outing pairings.

I think we are using the term “Legend” here liberally. Kirby Smart, as it pertains to the football world, is a legend. But to attach that to Freeze, Fishfry, Roof, and Chantastic?

I’ll leave my thoughts about Smart’s pairing to myself so as to not turn this into a Playpen Post, but I will say this is your Friday, April 17th, reminder that Auburn sucks.
