Knowing the strengths of both teams, should Auburn receive, kick, or defer should they win the toss. I think we defer.

With your D I'd probably want the ball.
Get the points on the board and hope for a couple stops.

we defered against Mizzou... I think we'd do it again, but who knows.

Great thread. Invigorating OP. Would read again.

I have a question about coin flips. Why do they ask the visiting team to pick a side? Why not just asign a visiting and home side to every coin and just flip. It's always 50/50, isn't it?

I'd say take the ball and try and get up early...but if the offense goes 3 and out and then FSU scores I'd be a little worried. It's always nice to get the ball in the 2nd half, so I say defer.

You always ALWAYS defer.
The chance to score before the half, get the ball and score again after halftime is too good to pass up. Ever.

First, never choose to "kick". In a game last year with UCLA or Stanford (I believe), the coin toss winning captain said "kick" not "defer." Thus, opposing team got to choose whether to kick or receive second half kickoff. That sucked.
Seriously, defer. Get that defense out there and tell them to make a statement. Show them you have faith in them. The chance to score before half then immediately after can also create huge momentum.
