- like to think I’m adventurous, but not this much
- in this week’s Observer mailbag: - what would be a successful Year 1 for Alex Golesh? - how will Auburn use those TEs? - what about the running schemes? - my favorite Gus Malzahn play call - how to get out of a shooting slump - a column from FOTP’s own Dave McKinney: “The IBOB Makes Me Sick”
- and, on the podcast, Dan and I break down the keys for Auburn basketball against Alabama on Saturday before coming up with a new business idea in the wake of the local AMC closing
- this is me working around my overwhelming desire to put the word “piss” in a headline
- Brody King squashing MJF in a TV main event?
- MJF finds himself on the other side of mind games as Brody King gets the win in a WILD #AEWDynamite main event

- didn’t think I was becoming a satellite radio addict, then I couldn’t find the Alt2K channel and it ruined my mood (they just moved it to a new number)
- programming note for Observer subscribers: no newsletter tomorrow morning, but we’ll have one in the afternoon from what we hear from Auburn HC Alex Golesh and his coordinators feel free to go ahead and submit questions for this week’s mailbag, if you’re feeling like it
- Observations: Tennessee 77, Auburn 69 - Auburn played right into Tennessee’s hand with all those 3s - the Tigers “got punked” early and often - the foul disparity also comes down to defense - Rotation Charts - Nerd Stats - Quote of the Night
- was really looking forward to covering the Auburn game tonight at Tennessee but we at Observer HQ decided the road conditions between here and Knoxville from the snow storm just ain’t worth the risk so we’ll make the safer choice and write about it from home this time instead
- bonus travel tip: if you ever book a hotel with Marriott and they’re trying to hit you with a late cancellation fee, just reschedule your reservation for a couple weeks out and then immediately cancel that one for free
- The Stretch 4 is here to preview the “next game, next fight” for Auburn at Tennessee - once again: rebound, or else… - be comfortable being uncomfortable on offense - defending the Vols’ new two-headed monster - two huge areas to watch: Turnovers and free throws
