BH: ‘Six wins are not likely to save Bryan Harsin’s job and seven wins probably will not either’

BamaHammer’s Ronald Evans, who is usually naturally down on Auburn and Tigers head coach Bryan Harsin, made a grim prediction for the HC’s future on the Plains should the Tigers not reach the eight-win plateau.

Evans said that ‘Six wins are not likely to save Bryan Harsin’s job,’ and that ‘seven wins probably will not either,’ in a piece titled ‘Auburn might go winless in the SEC.’ Evidently, there is little faith in AU from the Crimson Tide side of things, but why would there ever be positivity about the Tigers’ prospects from UAT fans?

Citing a potential loss to Missouri as a ‘tipping point’ to the season and saying that ‘the offense will be so bad, the Tigers will not be able to out-score any potent SEC offense,’ Evans is playing right into the Auburn playbook.

This could be a legendary Freezing Cold Take come December.

Bryan Harsin is being wildly disrespected but that’s what endings like the 2021 season get you

Rival sites have every right to doubt the Tigers due to what they’ve seen from the Boise native’s most recent on-field performances, but some of these claims are unfair and disrespectful to what Bryan Harsin and his coaching staff have put together.

Auburn’s offense doesn’t deserve this level of slander before Eric Kiesau’s system is fully installed. The A-Day spring game doesn’t count for much, especially against a defense that should be in the second tier along with Arkansas behind the projected top units at Georgia, Alabama, and Texas A&M.

While projecting an upset against either the Crimson Tide at BDS or the Bulldogs Between the Hedges is fool’s gold, doing the same against any team at Jordan-Hare Stadium–including a Missouri squad who Evans admits will be worse than Auburn in the same piece he projects an upset on the road for between the two–is far from a ridiculous proposition.

Unlike Evans’ zero-SEC win prediction.
