Mark it down. Mississippi State is going to go into the game overly confident after having whipped Memphis and seeing Auburn barely beat Utah State. Auburn is going to have a tough week of practice and go into the game with something to prove.

Auburn wins by 7-10 points.

I'm not buying that one. I don't Auburn's defense is going to be able to contain Merlins. If they win, then it'll have to be a shootout, but I just think that Miss St. has the talent now to slow down the Auburn offense. I don't think the Auburn defense is going to stop anyone early in the season. They may improve as the season moves on but losing Fairley seems bigger than Cam after watching yesterdays game. He was a one man defensive show last year. Amazing the impact one DT can have.

Uhh no. Fairley is our biggest loss, I agree. But to say he's a one man show is ridiculous. The other starting DT got drafted, we had a 3rd quality DT, and Antoine Carter and Nosa Eguae were very solid ends. The DL as a whole was dominant, Fairley was just the best one
