How Auburn Tigers, Harsin Win Arkansas Razorbacks Week Even if Scoreboard Says Neither Did

Bryan Harsin in all probability desires nothing greater than to hold on till his Auburn Tigers can sq. up with the Arkansas Razorbacks.

Sam Pittman’s squad was one of many few groups to battle with Auburn final season, struggling a loss second solely to a 37-0 thrashing by the hands of future nationwide champion Georgia by way of level differential. 

Nevertheless, as an alternative of hoping he can maintain on till the shadow of Halloween for an opportunity to go 2-0 towards the Hogs, there’s a path that will be greatest for each Harsin and Auburn that may almost definitely require the embattled coach to skip out on a visit to the Ozarks for an early ski season within the Rockies.

With Karl Dorrell out as head coach at Colorado, Harsin has an opportunity to avoid wasting face whereas making a win-win for each himself and Auburn. 

Phrase on the road is the Buffaloes initially kicked the tires on Harsin after a number of profitable years at Boise State, however he was holding out for an even bigger fish. Sadly for Harsin, he hooked an incredible white shark in Auburn.

He wasn’t prepared for the complications that comes with coping with Auburn boosters, recruiting in the identical state as Nick Saban and preventing his approach by means of the SEC West yearly along with going through Penn State.

However that does not imply Harsin is not an ideal match for Colorado. He could have been the worst potential cultural match for the SEC, however an skilled Rocky Mountain area recruiter going through a Pac 12 schedule within the low strain faculty soccer world of the Western United States is simply what the physician ordered for Harsin to rehabilitate his repute.

If Colorado is actually , it is a deal that may very well be accomplished subsequent week, or on the newest, through the off week simply earlier than the Arkansas sport. Each faculties might conform to forego buy-out clause negotiations and easily say Colorado will get Harsin and not using a buy-out as long as Auburn does not owe Harsin something in change.

Harsin does not have the detrimental aura of getting fired, Auburn does not need to pay for a second coach to depart in as a few years, and Colorado will get a coach it desires with out breaking the financial institution to tear him away.

In the meantime, there is not any solution to gauge whether or not Arkansas comes out a winner on this additionally. There is not any telling how the Tigers’ gamers will deal with issues.

On one hand, now not having the darkish cloud of Harsin’s impending profession execution by the world hair-trigger boosters hanging over them would possibly enable the gamers to give attention to the sport with renewed power.

On the opposite, they might determine the season is over and begin mapping out potential switch portal locations.

Both approach Auburn comes out a winner because it strikes on to its latest sufferer, ummm…coach. 

That is when the enjoyable begins. 

Harsin outlets for brand new properties within the Rockies whereas Auburn tries to search out somebody loopy and determined sufficient to take the top place in that crazed nut home. 

I hear Chad Morris is likely to be obtainable.
