First off let me say this I am glad they won that game for if they lose that game it would hurt SoS for those who would be playing for a shot at the BCS CG and a BCS Bowl Game.

The very reason that they where able to comeback from a 24 point deficit was proof enough why USU was 1 & 53 against top 25 ranked Teams and now are 1 & 54 after this game. They should be ashamed of themselves for almost loosing that game.

Those people left that Stadium not because they do not support their Program but because they where ashamed of the way last years BCS NCs played and almost lost to a Team they had no buisness doing so. By those Fans leaving ought to serve notice to that Team their Fans are not going to stand for mediocrity.

Auburn has more talent man for man than USU does and heads-up should have been able to control that game from start to finish. Now granted there are those times when a lower talented Team does win. Take the ASU vs Michigan, LSU vs UAB and Bama vs U-LM shows they do happen but at the same time you do not jump up and down like you just won the SEC Championship like they did after that game making themselves look as though they had.

You want to know what happened after LSU lost that game with UAB in 2002? They have not lost a single Non-Conference Regular Season Game since that game. That streak is on the line tonight with Oregon and it is the longest such streak in the Country. Also LSU has won 2 BCS NCs over that span and have lost only 1 Non-Conference Game and that was Penn State in the CapitolOne Bowl. Also look at what Bama has done since that game during Saban's first year at Bama. he was in the process of turning a mindset in that Team around and when that happened that Team used that game as the emphesis for making the changes and buying into what Saban was trying to show them. By the way when LSU lost to UAB Saban was also the Coach there and the rest is history.

Now Auburn will have to prove their worth over the coarse of this year. I have them winning at most 4 games and I said that back in July and stand by it and will says so if they do make it to a Bowl game that is at least 6 wins they need. This is my predictions.
Auburn Schedule 2011
Sept. 3, 2011 Utah State 42-38 W
Sept. 10, 2011 Miss. State L
Sept. 17, 2011 at Clemson L
Sept. 24, 2011 Florida Atlantic Toss-Up-W
Oct. 1, 2011 at South Carolina L
Oct. 8, 2011 at Arkansas L
Oct. 15, 2011 Florida L
Oct. 22, 2011 at LSU L
Oct. 29, 2011 Ole Miss W
Nov. 12, 2011 at Georgia L
Nov. 19, 2011 Samford W
Nov. 26, 2011 Alabama L
Dec. 3, 2011 SEC Championship

Looking at this Schedule you can see why I feel about their won-loss record. It has nothing to do with anything else. I just do not believe they can overcome what they lost and their overall debth against SEC opponents and Florida Atlantic will make it hard on them also.
