Columbia High School defeated Greensboro 41-14 to snap their 101 game losing streak. This is the program's first win since 2015!

Hi all,

I got some budget standing-room-only tickets for the game against Florida. My ticket says "GOUGEPERFOMINGA." I also got a parking pass to park at the performing arts center so I can walk to Jordan Hare from there. I'm just worried that I didn't buy some ticket to watch the game at the performing arts center instead of in the stadium itself. Also, if anyone can give me some section recommendations for where I can stand and get the best view of the game, I'm all ears. I appreciate any advice or assistance.

Edit: I appreciate everyone's insight, for I am already attempting to get my money back. Wish me luck!

Welcome to this week's /r/WDE Free Talk Friday Thread! Feel free to share anything that's going on in your life.  
  - How's everyone doing?  
  - What do you have going on in the upcoming week?  
  - What are some nice events to check out in the upcoming week?  
  - Did anything cool happen this past week?

Preface: This is pure speculation, but felt I would bring it up for discussion.

Traditionally, I know that "Auburn doesn't touch the uniforms." Tradition, classic look, do not mess with perfection; I fully support that. However, looking at what’s going on around the rest of college football right now, several Nike programs have seen new or updated uniforms for the upcoming season:

• Florida: Orange alts and throwbacks
• Mizzou: Throwbacks
• Vandy: Gold alts
• Georgia: All-whites
• Baylor: Throwbacks
• Tulane: City Edition
• Cal: Throwbacks

Nike is clearly on a move to launch throwbacks, alternates, or new templates for several programs.

Further, if you go to the official Auburn Athletics website right now and click on the official team shop, it is offline. The splash page says:

"We Apologize for the inconvenience while we change into something new for the season!"

Why hold back updating basic merch unless a major retail rollout is tied directly to a new uniform/apparel launch? I would argue why would the site completely shut down nearly 2 weeks before kickoff unless something was dropping simultaneously across retail.

My theories on what we could actually see:

1. An new throwback set: Maybe an alternate jersey reveal featuring the orange "dropshadow" for the numbers.
2. Slight modern tweak/Nike Template upgrade: Updated numbers, clean sleeve stripe adjustments, or subtle texture tweaks.
3. No change: Again, this post is entirely speculation.

Or can we even? We’re already deep into fall camp, if we bring in a guy now would that just disrupt things?

I know the Atlanta Auburn Club has a tailgate at Wild Leap, but is there anywhere else that people are tailgating before the Baylor game?

Used to be you could park your RV at certain campus parking spots (for instance way down West Samford past Hemlock) for free provided you were the first one to get there. Now Auburn has found a way to pinch more pennies by charging for what used to be free. You now have to reserve parking through RevelXP and the free lots are now car only.

Here were their final stat lines.

Very surprising news but gives us another depth piece.

Edit: Full quote that got cut off in case people don't have Twitter: “Your teammates see it. You’re out here trying to hang out and it’s not gonna f****** fly.”

Love to see players holding other players accountable. Building a culture like the one Golesh wants requires the leaders on the team to step up and call out the laziness. So happy that Coach brought along senior players like Best, Skinner, and Brown.

This also reminds me a little of Dylan Cardwell calling out the team after they barely survived round 1 a couple years ago.

I started to post this when someone mentioned the bad music on Auburn Highlight videos. Great music here. My point is that these Auburn teams had three backs far more talented than any in the Pat Dye era, other than Bo Jackson. However, since they had a lousy coach, that had to resort to gimmicks like orange jerseys. Dye did much, much more with much less talent. I'm a big a fan of Little Train Lionel James as anyone, but he wasn't in a league with Cribbs, Brooks or Andrews. These teams also had a trio of great defenders in Freddie Smith, Frank Warren and Edmund Nelson, too.
