Biggest as in most important. It must have sucked to give up so many yards and points to an average team. No wonder they didn't win a NC.

Wasn't important at all. Division was already won. That's why Bama took it easy. Only put up 55.

Damn I can't imagine how emotionally distraught the Alabama seniors were after the Iron Bowl victory after giving up all of those yards. Jesus imagine the terror of leaving your final game in BDS knowing that even though you got the win, its all for nothing because you lost in the meaningless statistical category. Auburn players should be proud of themselves.

How was AU our biggest game? Beating LSU always seems to be the key to our season

It was a big game for OSU. Gus showed them the blueprint on how to beat Bama, just like the year before for Oklahoma. It was bigger for AU, because it forced Gus to get rid of Ellis Johnson.

It was no fricking secret that Alabama's secondary was dismal all year. If you're using that logic, Gus should give credit to Dana Holgresen for showing Gus earlier in the year that Alabama's secondary was going to struggle.

Yeah...I seriously doubt Nigerian Cam will be shitting himself during IB 2015 in Auburn. Dude will be a finely tuned, well oiled machine by that late point in the season.

Haha

Seriously, this is shaping up to be one of the most intriguing seasons I can remember.

It literally can be a number of teams winning the West and the SEC. I am excited to watch it unfold.

This Bama team is a lock for 12 wins has a legit shot at 15-0. All the off season rhetoric is boring. This Bama D will get back to dominating and dictating games.

Kiffin's offense doesn't take Aaron Rodgers to execute. It's basically a bunch of bubble screens, slants and shallow crosses. Kiffin is great at isolating playmakers and Bama has ridiculous skill players right now. People seem to forget that Kenyan Drake was leading Alabama in TDs not Amari Cooper before his injury. Stewart, Robert Foster, Calvin Ridley all can excel in Kiffin's system. If Bo Scarborough is close to 100% healed after his suspension he is a match up nightmare. He is a faster more fluid Derrick Henry that can line up out wide as well. This team is beyond stacked.

And then you add this as if it isn't more of the same.

You hope based on reports and opinion, but rhetoric just the same

It does exist. They have meetings once a month. They get access to watch practice and scrimmages from time to time. I don't think they're out there buying cars for players though.

If they do, it's never discussed at the actual larger meetings. Trust me, it's less insidious than folks think.

Just like last year, you guys over emphasize the QB position at Bama. If you notice they throw the ball in the spring game and in practice much more than in games. This gives our D-Line the chance to bring it, and we have a great D-line.

We will run the ball more in games, and the QB can win while not being great, See 2009 and 2011. And last year for that matter.

The facts are since Bama has landed the it's 1st # 1 recruiting class in 2008 they have dominated the SEC. In seven years they have finished 7-1 or 8-0 six times in conference play.

2008 8-0
2009 8-0
2010 5-3
2011 7-1
2012 7-1
2013 7-1
2014 7-1

Only one those losses was by more than one possession. USC in 2010. These seasons were with achieved with 3 different OCs and 4 different QBs. All the doom and gloom just doesn't coincide with what we have become accustomed to see from Bama. More than likely this team will go 8-0 or 7-1 either record will be good enough to win the West. Which means winning the SEC and securing playoff birth.

I'm not saying they have any real power, but there is a group that calls themselves the REC. From all I know its just a bunch of old rich guys who like football. Nothing more.
