1. The radio call in shows will be insane
2. This board will be insane
3. The SECr will be unbearable
4. Bert won't be fired
5. We'll keep improving
6. Life will go on

Auburn may not be playing their best, but they're improving as the season progresses. They're more talented than we are and have more depth.

They should win. We're still a year or two away from seeing real results from what Bert is building.

I expect a close game decided by 1 score - could go either way. If we play well and just get outplayed that's one thing. If we lose due to a handful of preventable failures that's another.

Is this a reverse jinx? Auburn barely beat Kentucky last night. Kentucky is a Sun Belt team who needed a 4th quarter miracle and overtime to beat FCS Eastern Kentucky. They're terrible.

Eh their front 7 is still garbage. If our OL continues to improve like it has the past few weeks I think we should win. We were able to run on Tennessee and A&M, who both have way better front 7s than Auburn

I understand the general sentiment of your post, but this is the most disconcerting part of it:

To me, that's just unacceptable. This is year 3 for both coaches. If we're getting beaten by Auburn in year 3 because of depth and talent when both coaches are in parallel tenures in taking over programs coming off dumpster seasons from 2012, then I'm completely out on Bert because we're going backwards and not forwards.

Say what you want about Malzahn (I think he's a used car salesman myself), but he make chicken salad out of chicken shite in 2013 and rode a converted DB to an SEC Championship in effort to get the most talented players on the field. It's not like Marshall was some game-changing QB he inherited.

I'm still in Bert's corner and hanging on by a thread, but I'm mad as frick at how this season has turned out, and that will only be amplified if we lose winnable games to the likes of Auburn, State and Mizzou at home when all three have looked putrid for most of the first half of the season.

We shouldn't and we better not lose to AU.

The larger question which looms is IF we were to somehow win this game would you and the couple of others I've seen finally be able to lose that sig pic you've been compelled to sport around the last couple of years?

Also, where is the seasonal thread where numerous posters from both squads participate in the ban bet which normally results in many casualties of war to this board? Is it a bit too early for it or does neither faction have the faith this year?

I might be missing someone but evidently Rig, Catfish & FlyAU are all hunkering down on this board. It's awfully quiet.

Lol at this thread. Bert's soldiers getting the excuses ready.

When have we ever been more "talented" than auburn? They are always going to out-recruit us over a 4-year period. I guess we should be OK with losing every game ever to them.
