Is it better for the Hogs if A&M wins or loses this week to Auburn?

Normally I would root for a team we are about to play to win. We get more respect by beating them, and there is a chance they come in a bit cocky.

With A&M though it seems like these guys always start fast until that first loss and then the wheels fall off. So the question is do you want them riding high or coming into the game primed to fall apart.

Either way I hope they have to play 5 overtimes and we have our game decided by halftime.

My list of teams that I NEVER hope to see win

1. Texas
2. Texas A&M
3. Alabama
4. Auburn
5. Tennessee
6. Ole Miss
7. Oklahoma
8. Ohio State
9. Notre Dame
10. Michigan

.... I was indifferent to Michigan until they did the whole schedule back out...

So that said... I hope Auburn and A & M end up in a scoreless tie that goes 20 overtimes before they both give up due to major suckage.

I always want every team to be ranked as high as possible when we play.

Also, i enjoy watching Auburn suck, and hope Gus is let go before the season ends. Frick that cheating program.

I don't really care but if it benefits our rankings if they win, then so be it.

I just wish it to be a brutally rough game that just wears them out mentally and physically.

Almost all of that for me, except I hope they keep Gus begrudgingly and he continues his downward spiral. That game against Clemson was right up there with Trading Places as far as my favorite comedies go.

Auburn's D is legit. They're going to pound on them for sure.

Loses. Sumlin's teams are too soft to overcome adversity once it hits.

I want to beat the dog out of them while they're riding high. I hope we beat them by 30 just to make up for the last several years.

Always better. We want our opponents to be ranked as high as possible when we play them.

Let them come in happy instead of angry and pissed about a loss.

Normally I would agree with this, but this doesn't seem to apply to Sumlin's teams. They seem to fold after any adversity. I will be rooting for A&M just for the higher rated matchup though.

I don't actually care, however we want gus to win enuf to stay at Auburn... or do we?

The way I see the sec this year.

short leash coaches
1. Stoops
2. Jones/Miles/Gus
3. Sumlin

can you imagine the sheer joy when all of these are looking for a new coach at the same time. Please, yes... what fun it would be. Christmas Like my friends.

Especially if Herman goes to USC, or Texas, or.....

I wouldn't mind being the team that knocked the wheels off aTm for the season though

Arkansas should want A&M and Ole Miss to win this week. If Bama wins they will come in confident and loaded for bear. We need Ole Miss to win to give them that SEC loss which could help us in the long run if they beat us this year.

With A&M I think its kind of a tossup. If they win we get a higher matchup next week but if they lose the wheels do tend to fall off the Sumlin shatshow. Either way we need to hope they get beat up by Auburn.

Against my religion to pull for Auburn ... ever. Hogs just need to win & not worry about the rest.
