As soon as Auburn’s offense was officially held out of the end zone in its 14-6 loss against Clemson, I asked myself what co-hosting a call-in sports radio talk show in Auburn (ESPN 106.7 FM) on Monday would entail.
In the past, I would have defaulted to defending Gus Malzahn. I’ve deflected blame off him previously stating he needed more time. I’ve said he needs a different quarterback. I’ve said he needed time to build the defense. Even last week, I held off upset callers believing that he was holding back his offense in the season-opener to keep information from Clemson.
