How much further west of the Mississippi can you get than Pulman, Washington? Didn't AU beat Washington State in a "non-con" game just last year?

IDK, I'm guessing he meant on the road. But I think the guy who just said AU beat Texas in 1991 should send the guy an email. It's pretty clear the purpose of his article as a whole was to rip the SEC.

That was in Auburn.

As for the K St game, I think we'll win, and I actually think we'll probably cover the spread, but I don't think anyone thinks we'll blow them out. Any time Snyder is at the helm, you're going to play a pretty good football team.

K-State will win cause nobody beats Snyder, that old prick will make Auburn fans pull their hair out. You will see his players move in slow motion yet they will thump you.

Yeah but K-State is the luckiest team in the world when they play in manhattan especially in big games.

If Auburn doesn't go in cocky, they will win by 2 TDs. They just can't overlook a Snyder team. Teams that take the game for granted lose against him. I think Auburn will win this one though.

So this is what it means to cherry pick stats to fit an agenda

doesn't this line just beg you to take the Wildcats at +13?


yes. That line is probably too much for a night road game at a team we haven't played in a long time, especially adding in the fact that Snyder is a great coach.

All that said, their line is very thin and not big to start with, they lost a quarterback playmaker in the offseason. If we have to play KState, early this year would be the time to do it.

I dont see us going in cocky. We have been, at times, a slow starting team. Hopefully, with the returning starters we have, it will not be the case this year. Snyder lost a lot including the QB and back up QB. We "Should" win easily but you know how that goes..

I think Gus will have us ready

Twelve days to prepare after playing San Jose St. I do not think AU will be worrying about the La Tech game at that point.

I like how people like to claim that because something hasn't happened or hasn't happened in awhile that it will have an effect on something. Its the most useless theory anyone uses to show what will happen and is proven wrong every year.

If I were a UGA fan, I'd bet the fricking house on Kansas State.

DO.

Probably would if gambling were legal and the line moved to 14.5, maybe 14

We will basically have 2 1/2 weeks to prepare for the K State game since we have an off week before them and play San Jose State the week before that. And we play La Tech the week after them.

Pretty much zero chance we are overlooking them with that setup. If we didn't have the off week before playing them I'd be much more worried about playing Snyder.

I'm much more worried about playing Miss St on the road a couple weeks later right after we get LSU at home. That's a classic trap game.
