Gus Malzahn is entering his 7th season at Auburn, where enough never seems to be enough, especially in a state where Alabama is clearly king. Malzahn has averaged nine wins a season over the last three years, yet he’s on the “hotseat” once again because he’s not Nick Saban.

Kentucky fans now have more to look forward to than just their annual run at a basketball championship. Their football program broke thru last season with its first ten win season in 40 years.
