You lost to A&M at home, though.

TBH, I don't think Auburn has given up and I don't think Alabama is peaking. After yesterday, I have no idea what happens in the IB.

IMO, injury plagued, unmotivated and undisciplined.

I don't think it's any secret that Auburn has been missing some guys that are all-SEC potential, like Duke Williams, Carl Lawson and Alex Kozan. The motivational factor became clear after a heart-breaking loss against Texas A&M, and really reared it's ugly head against Georgia. IMO, the biggest thing hurting Auburn are penalties at crucial moments in the game. Worst penalized team in the SEC, IIRC.

That being said, this is the Iron Bowl. We typically don't know what will happen, and you shouldn't have to be motivated to play this game.

And beat an Ole Miss team at the same place where Bama lost.

No way to spin it IP. Auburn is playing very poorly right now. I posted before the UGA game that they had no leadership. A senior QB, a senior center, and a senior CB (all starters) got arrested this year. That's who Auburn is right now. Bunch of thugs. When your team leaders are out partying and getting busted its hard to get everyone else to act right. Bama wins big.

Look at Bama's Opponents Record (FBS). Barely above .500.
And kicking y'all's arse ain't gonna help it much either.

They certainly respond poorly to adversity. Not all that physical either. CAP is pretty good though.

And then lost at home to a team Alabama beat at home 59-0.

But I don't suppose it matters. The game will be much closer than everyone seems to think. Alabama's offense has regressed since the first half against UT and if Auburn gets Williams back I suspect they will be much better.

Oh excuse me. Dismukes arrest was 2 years ago. It was only your senior starting QB and CB that got arrested this year.

Most have a loss against UA. And your team will too.
And be barely above .500.

But whatever happens in this game, I don't expect it to be a blowout.



Since the last two AU teams that had already checked out in a Tuscaloosa Iron Bowl got taken to the woodshed, so I want them to feel pain and humiliation for every second so I would love a program record breaking point total. Ya know, Germany vs Brazil type stuff







But it's Auburn.... so I'd be happy with a 1 pt win too.

Just don't make excuses if you lose Bammers. Whatever you do - don't show some photoshop copy of a foot out of bounds or a Lineman's leg downfield by a half yard or whatever else can be blamed. I will puke if I have to read about how our offense cheats or one of our players was paid. And most of all...keep your lunatics locked up and away from our University.

It will be a 3 TD victory for UA IMO.
