Auburn's BCS championship forever tainted?

In the court of public opinion (nationally), Auburn will always assume a certain amount of guilt in the Cam Newton case---regardless of the eventual outcome.
If Auburn is exonerated, people will just say it was well covered up.
Will this be the national championship (assuming they get it) that is forever footnoted?

it doesnt matter really. if we win it and are cleared, everyone will claim an * by it. or were guilty and they take it away.
of the 2, id rather be cleared and win it - then have everyone claim otherwise.
its the anti win/win tbh

dont know about footnoted but I think public perception will certainly be tainted throughout the country and for sure in the SEC

Who gives a shite what someone else thinks? If the BCS recognizes it, the haters can piss off.

By in the know SEC fans - yes.
By national media and casual fan - no.
It will be like the arguments non-UA fans make about some of Bamas more dubious title claims.

Since it came out mid season, I don't think anyone will even recognize them as champs. At least from a fan's perspective.

I don't think they're going to win it.
If they do, it will be stripped.
This is karma for Operation Red Dog.
Don't mess with BAMA.

For me no, if nothing comes of it and if they win ,and that is a big if, there is still alot of football to play. At this point I'm going on Cam is playing and if they win out they will be in big game. I would love to see the track meet between Oregon and Auburn. Or I would love to see them crush Boise or TCU.

Is Southern Cal's 2004 ? Really,do many people give it much thought ?

yes, most people will conclude they stole it. there is really no way to clearly prove cecil did NOT receive money or money was paid on his behalf. generally speaking, money has to be spent to prove it was received. if newton's got it in a foreign bank or is sitting on it by stashing it outside of our banking system, it probably won't be provedn until he spends it later on. if he has it stashed and simply draws down on it for personal use (eating out, buying clothes, vacations, etc ie, no big ticket items such as cars, homes,etc) he will probably never get caught. all this assumes the payor doesn't squeal or has a iron clad paper trail verifying the money was sent to newton or an organization he controls.

People are acting like Auburn did not pay in the Cam sweepstakes. I find it hard to believe that Cecil Newton steered his son toward Auburn late in the process for free. Why would he give Cam to Auburn for free when he was shopping him to everyone else?

I'm not so sure it matters. People talk shite to tide fans about McCoy getting knocked out of the game, LSU fans about LSU backing in with two losses, USC fans about USC having an ineligible player.
The fact of the matter is that it really doesn't matter how much shite anyone talks. No one can take away the party Auburn fans get to have that night and probably that next week if the guys win it. Even if they can take back the wins, the crystal, or the Heisman, they can't take the feeling of the moment away, so
them.
