I can’t believe we’re here. Not just that we’ve reached the final week of the regular season (at least for Auburn — there are several teams that finish their COVID-stretched schedules next Saturday), but once again the onliners have Gus Malzahn coaching for his job.
What if he somehow did get fired after today? It would be a perfect circle in his eight seasons on the Plains, with his first game coming against Mike Leach and his last game coming against Mike Leach. Forget the fact that there are so many factors fighting against firing him, but that would be an interesting little trivia question down the road.
