beat Bama
If we beat Bama NMSU doesn't matter at all. This is a lost/rebuilding season already. A Bama win would catapult our recruiting into the offseason, which is what really matters right now.

Alabamas kicker needs 10 points to become the NCAA all-time leading scorer. I hope we can pull off a huge upset but if we can’t I at least hope we can limit Reichard’s opportunities. I’d hate for him to break the record on us in our own house.

I'd prefer the Bama kicker to hit 3-4 field goals and break that record rather than those be TDs.

Keep the game close and the energy high for recruits.

Hell he will probably hit 3-4 FGs mixed in with 3-4 TD’s.

I hope he hits 3 FGs in the game and we block a meaningless one from him as time expires.

Better yet he hits 3 and then attempts a 62 yarder with 1 second left with Scott standing in the back of the endzone. Reichard hits it short….scott breaks free!! TD AUBURN.


Alabama wins 37-10

I have no idea which team will show up and whether they have grown a new pair after last week. bama doesn't look so dominating this year, so there's a thread of hopium.

They don't look so stylish but their style of ball can milk that clock and that is something that Saban has pushed while also discarding plays that Milroe cannot handle.

Auburn throws bama a curve. Starts geriner.he plays like Tom Brady/Michael Vick! Dropping dimes and running rpo like a boss. Throws for 300 and runs for a 100. It was the plan all along. Look like shite the whole season and bring in a secret weapon to beat bama!

Whew, … thank goodness. I was about to get you some help at Charter Hospital.

As has been said, “it’s the Offensive Line, stupid”. Our OL is the 2nd worst in the entire conference and has neither the talent or depth to compete in the SEC right now.

Consequently, this puts undue pressure on our defense and exposes a depth problem there also. We’re still a couple of recruiting seasons away from having a competitive OL.

And let’s face the truth. It is awfully difficult to recruit a top caliber QB to play behind an anemic OL, which is why Bo Nix made the right decision to transfer.

I’m optimistic for the future because Freeze understands the vital requirement to recruit, recruit, recruit …. but that ain’t gonna’ help us today. Just my dos centavos…..

War Eagle anyway !

Auburn can not score. IF you cant score, you cant win big games. I would rather have a good offense and a bad defense. Atleast you have a chance to win that way


I think this game will be a mismatch unfortunately. 38-10 or something like that.

I got bad news: an unranked AU has only beaten a ranked Bama one time in history (2002).

So, yeah, not liking our chances. I just hope AU can keep the score within the 14 point spread.

31-6 Bama at half. 52-16 Final. Would love to be wrong, but realistic.

I'd like it better as:

I hope we put 3 of their QBs out of the game and then block the last one from scoring as time expires for the win.

(it'd kind of be fun watching them get a dose of their....)

You left out the second half adjustment. Geriner is injured on the last play of the half Hail Mary that worked.

In comes Heisman Hank “Downtown” Brown.

Throws 2 TDs in the fourth quarter to win the game over Bama 50-49.

McPherson has 5 FGs.
