They only had 7 days to install the new spread offense brought to Auburn from Troy by Tony Franklin. It was sloppy in the 1st half but that was to be expected. They already have Tate and another RB (his name escapes me) returning. I was real impressed w/ Freshman QB Kodi Burns and they have a Juco transfer coming as well. Mario Fannin, too, was impressive Auburn, it seems, is always loaded on D. Saban's made a guarantee to dominate in state football; it appears this may be yet another empty promise.
