re: Would you rather a 2010 Auburn season or a 2009 Alabama season?

Not sure. It's fun to dominate, but it's also hard to beat the thrill of a last possession type game. Maybe a mix is the best - more similar to Bama 2009 with mostly dominating games mixed in with three tights ones with your biggest rivals (Auburn, Tennessee, and LSU ended up being the closest games I think).
