Glam Newton, Glint Mosely, and other Halloween Horrors on the Plains (updating)

The Auburn Football team had a Halloween party. And a costume contest.
Enter “The Heisman Fairy.”
Too blessed to be dressed…

Sunday knee-jerk: 2004, 2010

I haven’t written many posts that seemed sillier faster that the one I put up yesterday a few hours before kickoff, one I named “Survival” and which projected another nail-biting win for an Auburn team I expected to be tired, distracted, and emotionally drained. As we know now, the better title would have been “Flourish” [...]

Can we please get Daniel A. Auburn to hop on “The Wristband” in time for Christmas?

Sunday morning biscuits and gravy: What they’re saying about the Tigers

• Auburn jumps to No. 2 in the coaches poll. And it still seems crazy if you think about it … FIVE teams from the SEC West in the Top 21 spots. • Jerry was up all night (!!!) watching PAC-10 football. He offers his thoughts on the Ducks and the rest of the conference. [...]

The Gameday Post, Ole Miss – Fulltime

FULLTIME, FUNTIME: Holy hell, that was fun. Cam catches a pass for a TD and throws for a bunch of yards but never has to strain himself; Dyer finally gets going the way we’ve known he could get going; the defense does enough that there’s no real complaints; another 300 yards on the ground; Houston [...]

Friday (Night) Preview: Ole Miss

Friday (Night) Preview: Ole Miss

What’s at stake: I don’t have to tell you that, for Auburn, there is a lot more to lose Saturday than there is to gain. Sure, we’ll be ecstatic with a win. It’ll close the deal on the final road test of the season before Alabama. It’ll keep us seated safely atop the BCS Rankings [...]

Leaves Of Turf: Halloween Song for Auburn

Leaves Of Turf: <i>Halloween Song for Auburn</i>

Double, double toil and trouble; The offense rules, the secondary struggles.
In Malzahn’s cauldron boil and bake / Legs of McCalebb, spin of Blake,

Syllables of Lutzenkirchen.
