Maybe cause Clemson scored their last points of the game at the 7:28 mark of the 2nd qtr. & UGA proceeded to score the next 31 points in a row...

After Clemson missed a FG at the 4:28 mark of the 2nd qtr. they never advanced past their own 31yd line with 15 total yds & 1 1st down for the next 34:28 of the game...
How does that contrast now with AU and Arky?

The spread to our game was UGA -7.5 and yours was Auburn -21.

ETA: Obviously the games played out the same and ESPN was probably a little harsh on AU but it was what was expected for AU to beat Arkansas like that.

Can we just say they were both good wins?

Personally, I don't care which one was, or was not more impressive. It won't matter until Novembe 15th. (A least, I HOPE it still matters! )


Until them, all we are saying is..."My Tee Tee is yellower than yours!"

Feel free to use that as a signature line!

Because espn hasn't realized Clemson lost their entire offense and thinks UGA beat someone good.

Nightmare scenario. We go undefeated, beating you...then you beat us in the SECCG. We both go to playoff and face each other in the playoff.

This scenario COULD play out with seveal teams, of course.....wow! College football will go NUTS is anyone plays against each other three times!

Think LSU/Alabama!

Just years of frustration at the lack of positive coverage from ESPN. Our lack of consistency is the reason, but some of our fans have a tough time dealing with it. I for one will take the titles over positive coverage.

Of course, we could also point out that Arkansas was 0-8 last season in the SEC....but don't you think we should just leave it alone and say great game?

I'm not sure he thought that one through!

Hey....it's week one. NOBODY knows how good anybody elses opponent was. If West Virginia has an Auburn type season, then Alabama's win looks MUCH ore impressive. Same could be said for our win against Clemson, Auburn's against Arkansas...let's just say we had good wins. All of us that won.

Cuz yall are the reigning SEC Champs vs an unranked opponent that was winless in the conference last year.

UGA had a shite year last year, and was playing a ranked opponent.


And yet many many talking heads had Auburn on "upset alert".

Nice to prove the "experts" wrong, though, eh?

I didn't hydrate well enough on Saturday, so I can safely say that mine was probably yellower.

For sure.

And Vegas nailed it without a doubt. Just wondering why we don't get any credit from the same assholes who couldn't help talking up how much Arky was "improved".

I think we all agree with this. Until proven otherwise Auburn deserves to be ranked higher.
