While speaking at the Montgomery Quarterback Club, Dye said this about Gene Chizik and Nick Saban. “Don’t question the guy we got leading the program,” said Dye, who reminded the crowd of Chizik’s part in three undefeated teams, including […]

ESPN’s Ivan Maisel had an interesting take on Auburn’s Gene Chizik. He thinks Chizik’s time down at Auburn can be compared to Mike Dubose’s time at Alabama.

Gene Chizik should have kept his mouth shut. (Not that it mattered anyway!) He butted heads with the NCAA & Enforcement Officer Roe Lach in a meeting this summer over the investigation into Cam Newton. The NCAA’a response? ” You’ll know when we’re finished. And we’re not finished.” Now the juice is starting to flow. […]

I know I am (..until after they play the Georgia game that is). Why? As unsavory as it may seem, Auburn is in fact #1 in the BCS right now. Alabama needs the farmboys to stay in the top spot to have the computer juice to get to #2 or #1 in the BCS. I […]
