Through seven games this season, the 5-2 Auburn Tigers have recorded what I consider to be five important achievements. Let’s take a look.
1. Re-established an offensive identity
Last season was a mess offensively with the Jeremy Johnson pro-style offensive experiment exploding in Gus Malzahn’s face. The start of this season wasn’t much better. The headline of my column after the Tigers’ season opener: Gus Malzahn’s use of QBs booed by fans, ridiculed on social media.
You remember the Clemson game, don’t you? Three quarterbacks rotating in and out of the lineup haphazardly.
