Things you can do in time it takes Gus Malzahn to get team through picture day
On Aug. 16, the Auburn football team celebrated a new record.
No, it’s probably not what you think it is. The Auburn football team sat down for picture day and got the job done in a record 26 minutes and 30 seconds.
It’s no secret Gus Malzahn prides his offense on being fast-paced and “hurry up no huddle,” but he also prides his picture day to be scarily fast-paced.
Oh, picture day. A necessary evil for every college football team everywhere. Picture day at Auburn is unlike any picture day you will ever see elsewhere because Malzahn is timing the whole thing.
Immaculate and impressive at the same time, on picture day life imitates art for Malzahn as he hurries through the spectacle. You might be thinking “oh 26 minutes and 30 seconds is not a big deal.” I assure you it is.
Malzahn is a man on a mission and any spare time in the preseason will be utilized wisely. To give you all perspective on how miraculously short
this picture day was, here is a list of things you can do with 26 minutes and 30 seconds. Enjoy.
