Well Gandalf told them that they shall not pass, but some moron for Georgia put a tip drill in place for Ricky Ricardo Louis, so now Auburn is hard to overlook.

We're gonna find out if AU's QB Marshell can beat Bama with his arm. Highly unlikely, our DB's are much better coached than UGA's.

Auburn's rushed for 300 or more yards 6 times. Alabama's limited opponents to fewer than 100 6 times

I saw someone tweet that on twitter, and previous years stats don't mean shite. Good or bad.

I think AU runs better on bama than everyone expects.. but still nowhere near what we are used to doing. We will have 2 or 3 everything clicks drives that look great. And the rest we will have to fight and claw for. I say 210 yards rushing 100 yards ish passing.

We are one of the best offenses in the nation when rolling.. However one of the worst with any hickups. A penalty or a loss on a run play etc. and we fold like no other. It will come down to limiting 3rd 6+'s.

Don't see bama shutting down this rush offense but they will slow it down. Uga had some good rushing defense numbers and we put up 300 on them.

Also this isn't the same quality of alabama defense as in the past.

Statistics wise, pretty close to last year. Giving up 278 in Total Defense this year, 250 last year.

Bama is going to crush auburn. The last thing you want to be against bama is one dimensional.

I expect Auburn to have in the neighborhood of:

200 yds rushing
150 yds passing
17-24 points

I think Bama will have in the neighborhood of:

200 yds rushing
250 yds passing
31-42 points

Trying to use 2012 AU stats to prove your point, is like Kathleen Turner using photos from "Body Heat" on an online dating service.

Good luck getting to the edge Auburn. Cj mosley and haha will have career days. And nick Marshall is woefully inaccurate so we can load the box and contain.
2 picks and < 150 yards rushing.
Coming out flat against msu was the worst thing that could have happened for auburn.
