Nah, lurked on \b\ a while last fall when I got interested in the anonymous vs scientology stuff. I'm too damn old now to be a part of all that though.

The SECCG was by far the best overall defensive game for our D. Playing 11 games straight AU still has a slight depth issue and had to start players in secondary that have experience, heart and grit but not stellar in coverages partly because AU plays soft in first half. Although, they ramp up aggressiveness in second half along with great adjustments by DC. AU does have talented freshman that come in for spells, but need more development. With no game to follow it will be more aggressive and leave everything on the field like SECCG.

Obviously our D-Line is the shining star for our D with Bynes at LB who is a great leader and sound in all facets at LB. I will say our secondary has come through when it counts and the D as whole do not ever quit and feel the game cannot be won. They do not let mistakes and big plays mess with their focus (A very big intangible in my opinion).

I see some potential mismatches, but I am excited to see the game and watch it play out on the field.

I am curious about the Auburn defense.


They'll be like a bull through rice paper with your O-line. They outweigh your Offensive line an average of 52 pounds per lineman.

So did a lot of teams we faced this season...We saw how that worked out.

You don't think they will be sucking wind in the 3rd and 4th quarter if we successfully execute our 10 second snap/no huddle offense? Hell, defensive players have faked injuries just to slow the game down and catch their breath.

Yes.. I looked at both depth charts.. their offensive linemen are in the 260 range.. Auburn is going to kill them. If I remember correctly, the average weight of their Oline was 262 and Auburn's D line was about 310.

We practice against the HUNH often, even if you start rolling that along with our depth means it won't be easy to tire our team out.

Yall won't have time to execute it. There will be busted plays galore and your QB will be running for his life. Yall faced some bigger guys, but not with the talent that will be coming through the line that yall will see in the NC game.

I really hope you are right, but Oregon strikes me as a team that kills you on the perimeter, with James or through the air with guys like Mayo.

They'll get their points.

Gonna be hard to get the perimeter when the DE's are boxing you in. Auburn is going to live in Oregon's backfield.

It sounds cliche, but Auburn is able to prepare for a fast offense (atleast running drills/plays). They may not keep up in the end after 4 qtrs, but they can practice against it. No real way for Oregon to prepare for Cam or a really good line (unless theres something I don't know about)

No offense brah, but AU isn't like any of the teams you've faced all year. This is a completely different monster you're dealing with. And I say that as a guy who will be pulling for the quacktards.

I just looked at the depth chart. We average 295 lbs on the line with our smallest player (Thran) being 281?
