Single digit dog winning is hardly an upset


oh, I don't know about that. I think Ole Miss winning would be a huge upset.

Yes, but being the worst in the West this year means you are currently ranked 15th in the nation. If you look at this way, you could be sorely disappointed on Sat.

Bigger, yes. Ole Miss is not a premier program, even when they have a top 10 team. Just how it is.

As for AU, I would not have any confidence about Auburn's chances if MSU hadn't won in such a consistent, dominant fashion. The score didn't reflect the ease with which they controlled most of the game.

Now I won't be surprised at all if LSU looks considerably better, but I think most feel the LSU problems this season are systemic and not just situational. I think AU wins, although I'm anticipating a tight game.

Odds are that Auburn wins this one, but LSU pulling of a 3-7 point victory wouldn't exactly be the upset of the century.

There is truth to this, but Harris has this O playing on a much different level....which State didn't have to figure out until their were only four min left in the game. Our D was still crappy, but when your O had three and out after three and out...that didn't help them either.

The funny thing is that non LSU fans probably give LSU more of a chance than the Rant crowd.

Quite honestly, I am bracing for an asswhoopin'. Yeah I know about LSU's problems...but they are a different team with Harris at QB. It feels like Auburn is about to fall apart. We have looked horrible in th last 2 games BEFORE we had a rash of injuries. There was a chance that our D could have kept us in the game but now we are down probably 4 starters. The O doesn't have an iota of rhythm.

I expect LSU to win by at least 2 TD's

I wish I could but I just see AU crushing LSU. Like by 24 points.

Not THAT big of an upset. LSU has consistently recruited well as well as built a defense that matches up well against Auburn's style of offense, not to mention Auburn doesn't look like late 2013 form yet.

That said, yeah, it would still be an upset.

Of course LSU has a chance. Auburn's offense hasn't been anything close to what it was at the end of last year. Harris gives LSU the best chance to win and Les finally figured it out. I think it's going to be a very tight game. Auburn probably wins in the end.
