Hard day. Xavier Atkins was one of the best defenders in the SEC and now he's gone. I don't know why but it matters not at this time. I watched eleven guys take down No. 1 Georgia without him. A team is not its best player. It's its standard. Wish him well. On to LSU. War Eagle.

Alex Golesh is now 3-1 in one-score games at Auburn. He already has more one-possession wins than Hugh Freeze did in two and a half years

The celebration is over. The toilet paper is down. The Politburo has issued new orders: No. 20 LSU at Jordan-Hare on Saturday. Beating No. 1 means nothing if you lose to No. 20 the next week. Comrade Golesh knows this. So do the players. Back to work. War Eagle. 🦅

Georgia is 30-2 all time as the AP number 1 team vs unranked opponents...
both losses came to Auburn.
Auburn 27, No. 1 Georgia 24. In Athens. On a walk-off field goal. Comrades, the Red Army marched into enemy territory as 20-point underdogs and came home with the flag. Toomer's Corner was rolled before sunrise. First win in Athens since 2005. The revolution is real. War Eagle. 🦅
Punt. 12 minutes left. Still 24–17 Auburn over No. 1 Georgia. Now it belongs to the defense. Comrades, this is the part of the movie where everyone grips the armrest. Hold
1/13 — Alex Golesh isn't THE problem. Neither is John Cohen. Or Byrum Brown. Or the O-line. Any more than Freeze, Harsin, Nix, Thorne, or Arnold were THE problem. One Auburn man's take on where we actually are, coming out of the bye. A thread. 🧵
12/13 — Need a reminder of what year one looks like? Saban's first Alabama team lost at home to Louisiana-Monroe. In November. Finished 6–6, needed a bowl to get to 7. Two years later: national champions. Nobody in Tuscaloosa remembers 7–6 as the year it died. It's the year it started.
