Yeah. So does yours. Most of the SEC does. We are improving though and have lots of reason to believe that things are getting better fast.

Auburn gave Colorado all they could handle before losing by 30+

You mean the team that has been to 3 straight ncaa tournaments, returns 13 lettermen and 5 starters who we played at midnight, on the road, in altitude, without one of our best players and with only 8 players available? We were competitive for most of the game, but it snow balled on us at the end. If we stay healthy we should be middle of the pack in the sec this year. That would be a huge improvement over last season.
Thanks for the reasoned reply, but...
A) a lot of teams have made 3 straight NCAAs
B) waaaay too many excuses-when you start using the time of day, you've over-reached.
C) 31 points is a helluva "snowball"
D) Let's be honest. The Buffs are ranked #29 in the AP...not exactly Kentucky.
E) Realistic opinion of your spot within the conference...I'd agree.

All in all, you're the only guy who posted a reasonable response.

Let's also add the fact that it was the first road game, at 12:00 am, with an almost entirely new team.
And at making 3 straight tournaments as no big deal.

Nobody said Auburn would be a powerhouse. The entire premise of this thread is flawed.

You should stick to football. You barely know shite about that either, but it's exponentially more than you know about basketball
And you need to stick to Idaho where the men run wild, and the sheep run scared!

A lot of Auburn posters predicted you would make the tournament this year. A 30+ point loss to Colorado doesn't bode well for that prediction.

I'm not from Idaho, you uncultured numbnuts. The only thing you know well is that chip on your shoulder and your hatred of Auburn's football team.

Wrong on all counts! I just love fricking with folks who are....easy to frick with. Hell, LSU fans are actually easier than y'all. I pulled for Auburn against KSU, and in the Natty last year, and LSU against Wisc. and in the Outback Bowl last year. I shouldn't be telling this because it'll probably make it harder to jimmie rustle, but....there it is!

Are you bama fans this pathetic in real life or is this just for the message boards?


You seem chapped that Auburn athletics are going back to "regular mode" Your teams suck.

He'll be good for Auburn and have them decent in the SEC. That isn't saying much though.

Because of a 9-win regular football season and losing the 2nd basketball game of the season? You guys are too much!
