We are days away from Auburn football returning and you all know what that means … it’s time to freak out over every decision Gus Malzahn makes on the field!

With this feeling of uncertainty plaguing me I took to the internet to ask the public what they would tell Malzahn and the answers are good. Real good.

Even if you’ve only been following Auburn football for the last five years then you know the complicated relationship Auburn fans have with Gus Malzahn. In 2013 Malzahn re-emerged on the Plains and made Auburn football great again. Being only 13 seconds removed from a national title in just his first year as head coach Auburn fans couldn’t help but feel blessed. Fast forward to the LSU game of 2017 when the Tigers blew a 23-0 lead after an inexplicable second half trainwreck and more than half the fanbase wanted his head.

Despite Malzahn’s career ups and downs, the fact of the matter is that he is not going anywhere. After receiving a 7-year, $49 million contract extension, Malzahn is here to stay in the driver’s seat of the “Gus Bus.”

Auburn fans have seen the “Gus Bus” do everything from making it to its final destination to going full-on dumpster fire. To prevent further dumpster fires from occurring I took to the public forum of Twitter and asked the question:

First of all we would all like to say:

Hey coach, your Taco Bell order is concerning.

Here are some words of encouragement:

Wait a minute…we have an offensive coordinator???

“THIRD AND OPELIKA”

I concur with this statement, Jay.

I also concur with this one, Jerrod.

Do you remember the pass from Nick Marshall to CJ Uzomah with 15 seconds left in 2013? Pepperidge Farm remembers…

PEDAL TO THE MEDAL ON THE GUS BUS!

Kam Martin, “Boobie” Whitlow, Asa Martin and Shaun Shivers are all capable of running the ball.

Gus Malzahn’s coaching record when wearing a visor is 38-21.

They know your secrets, Gus.

The controversial “oh my god they ran that play in practice” tweet we’ve been waiting for.

Shotout to Sallie for giving Gus the hook up on Double Bubble!

Nobody likes soggy bacon.

I haven’t received a full night’s sleep since before the LSU game last season and in fact the very thought of it haunts my dreams.

This is pretty good advice.

Me too, please.

Here’s to you, Arthur Gustavo Malzahn III.
