I'd say they have a 40% chance, but even that is 50/50. It's legit IMO.

Of course they have a real shot. They have a majority of their team back from a team that went to a bowl game last season. They beat MSU last year, while Auburn isn't as bad as MSU (I don't think), they aren't all that good either. I expect this to be a very close game.

Better shot than ULM had in beating Bama 2 years ago so anything is possible!

I admit I don't know much about these guys, but I have a hard time understanding why so many people think they have such a good shot. I understand the 2008 Debacle of Auburn football, but I still don't see La Tech winning. Most major publications have them coming in 4th or worse in the WAC. So apparently they aren't that strong. Say what you want too, but I just don't think they can beat Auburn.

And BTW...that opinion is completely unbiased.

I would say if they played 10,000 Louisiana Tech would win 77.1% of the time by an average score of 23-15

ETA: The same site that said that though said LSU would beat auburn 95% of the time by an average score of 49-8

Depends on how Auburns O looks. If they cant consistently move the ball it could be interesting.

Honestly, I expect it to be a war. They're no La. Monroe and we're not the Auburn of past years........Yet.

I think we pull it out in the fourth quarter.

24-20.

I don't think La Tech has much of a chance, but if Bama rolls on VT, and the Barn loses a close one to La Tech...

Here's Mike the Tiger in the snow:

That was intentional bud.
It's possible, but it's a longshot.

got ya.
I'd be worried if I was a barn fan, but Auburn is a lot better than State was last year.
