I got to watch Malzahn coach during my years at Auburn.
It could have been that I was wasted every game- so everything was awesome. But I was always very impressed with his offensive craftinesses. He knows how to get guys open, and overall is a master at game management.
I’ll never forget when he beat bama by confusing them with substitutions by bringing random punt team members on and off the field- leaving bama with 12 or 13 confused players on the field even after they had time to get set, because neither the coaches or players were sure if auburn was punting or not. This resulted in a first down, from which auburn was able to take knee’s after to end the game. It was genius.
Playing him will always be a grueling chess match.
