I'm curious how FSU will react if it's tight in the 4th quarter. This is Auburn's comfort zone. FSU's tightest game (BC) they were up 48-27 very early in the 4th.

Really? didn't BC run for 200+ on FSU? Imagine what AU gonna do! I could give 2 chits about AU, but they have been tested, FSUs schedule is a joke. I think they get exposed


If it came down to a close game, Auburn would win because they have been tested and FSU has not been tested at all. I'm not that homerish, to not give credit to auburn for winning all those close games. That Bama game was truly one of the best ending to a college football game I have ever seen.I wouldn't be surprised if they made a 30 for 30 on them if they beat FSU.

With that said, I don't believe its going to be a close game. Either FSU figures out Auburn or they will get rolled and gased like Mizzou. You don't want a shootout with a team designed to win those. We have a month to prepare for them so i'm confident we can stop them.

Unlike the SEC Champs of the past, this Auburn team actually has some exploitable flaws.

1. There defense gives up a lot yard, particularly in the air. I think our offense is at least as good as Mizzou, Bama, LSU, Georgia and WaSt. Even Auburn fans deflect attention from their secondary.I think we are a lock to score 28 point whether we win or lose. It not like we run anything special like Oregon that with preparation you can counter. This goes against the grain of the other SEC champion.

2. Ball Security. Nick Marshall can be counted on to spot the opposing team a fumble. I'm guessing they average 2 fumbles a game. Western Carolina even manage to force a fumble out of Auburn. I don't remember a previous SEC champ in recent memory having this much problems holding on to the football.

3. This SEC champ relies a bit more on luck than these other ones. Screw that whole rather lucky than good logic. The other SEC champs didn't need sunny weather, an act of god ball tip, and Bama's kicker sucking complete bawls. Bama cherry picks talent from every state in the country but can't find a good kicker for crap. The other SEC champs just flat out passed there test in much better fashion. Did anyone really think Notre Dame had a chance against Bama?


So in conclusion, I like FSU chances against auburn. The game will be decided by whether or not FSU can figure out Auburn offense. Either way the game will probably be over by the start of the 4th quarter. Also, I still think Bama is the best team in the conference.
