Doesn't matter at all.
As others have said it will be decided after a STRESSFUL turkey day (wifey and I are a 'house divided')
What needs to be known through all of this is that the state of AL, if nothing else (which... Let's be honest...) produces some of the best college football teams of our generation... Period. This year's show down will be equally as enthraling IMO.

Bama is 2-6 ATS this year. Wonder why that is...



Yes clearly Bama beating Florida Atlantic 41-0 instead of covering the 52 in a game that was called early and beating Southern Miss by 40 instead of by 56 indicates that Bama is an overrated team

It's always a different team every week for Christ sake.

He makes a sound argument. We were trounced by Auburn on the road. I will give degree of latitude to Bama because we are playing in Baton Rouge, but they will have to really dominate us to even this comparison up.

And I do not see that happening.

Let's continue the IF game. If so and so happens/doesn't happen, you lose against Arkansas. If the refs hadn't screwed OM and handed you a TD, the loss to them would look much, much worse.

If Ole Miss scores on that drive, Auburn probably doesn't win the game.


Right, like Auburn probably wouldn't have won the IB last year in OT? There was 1:30 left on the clock for our offense.

Too add further detail, let's remember that Auburn is missing Alex Kozan, Carl Lawson and Jermaine Whitehead (designated to special teams duty as further punishment) - three starters.


Did you lose all of them the week before or during the game?

Would you agree that it is different to have a guy get injured in preseason or several weeks before than during the play of a game?

Judging by the "oh shite" moments and low snaps, I'd say Bozeman might have benefited from extra practice as the starting center snapping the ball to the starting quarterback. I'd also say that it is tough to remain focused when you witness your teammate suffer a season (and potentially career) ending injury and you still have to go out there and play.

Never said that. You're still 2-6 ATS though.

I don't have an issue with what he said. It will all be settled on the field anyway

I agree with Joey. Thankfully, this debate will be decided on the field.

Nobody with a brain cares where we're ranked right now. If we win the rest of our games, we're SEC champs. If we lose again, we're not in the playoff. It's really simple and our ranking is irrelevant. And he's right, Auburn has one of the best resumes right now. But it's also November 3rd so that's pretty irrelevant too.

That's what i'm wondering? Who is Joey arguing with? The committee has AU ranked ahead of Bama and that's the only poll that matters.

Yea...he is one bright bulb.

We went 109 yards in one second against his team last year.

I liked our chances of getting 45 yards or more with 1:30 and three timeouts left.

Well, this isn't quite the same LSU team from September.


We played you in October. I promise you didn't get that much better in two weeks.

Come back to AU and we'll wear you out again.

Harrington loves to talk. He plays devil's advocate to the point that just see his lips moving.
