Is this a terrible AU team?

The Iron Bowl margin of victory thread reminded me of that long running saying that Alabama never beats AU when they're good.


So I just wanna know whether or it will most likely be a 1-6 point loss or a 30 point blowout again.

Auburn peaked early, but when you have a schedule like your second favorite sport, NASCAR, with the BigGame/Race to start the year, that will happen.

Pretty terrible but it should count as a good AU team. Not Bama's fault they gave up at the end of the season.

Umm I think this is the main reason why we play the games: nobody knows who's going to win any game. [ENDOFTHREAD, please!]

Auburn is a good team but they just haven't been playing up to their potential lately for whatever reason.

But whatever happens in this game, I don't expect it to be a blowout.

Unless one of the teams is absolutely terrible, close games even between mismatched teams are pretty much a regular sight at the IB.

Above average AU team. That loss to A&M was a killer

IMO, injury plagued, unmotivated and undisciplined.

I don't think it's any secret that Auburn has been missing some guys that are all-SEC potential, like Duke Williams, Carl Lawson and Alex Kozan. The motivational factor became clear after a heart-breaking loss against Texas A&M, and really reared it's ugly head against Georgia. IMO, the biggest thing hurting Auburn are penalties at crucial moments in the game. Worst penalized team in the SEC, IIRC.

That being said, this is the Iron Bowl. We typically don't know what will happen, and you shouldn't have to be motivated to play this game.

They certainly respond poorly to adversity. Not all that physical either. CAP is pretty good though.

It will be a 3 TD victory for UA IMO.

They have a lot of talent but a shitty head coach.

Did Auburn's slide this year have anything to do with the release of the Malzahn dance video? They just have not been the same since.
