re: Rank your 2015 opponents in order of anticipation...

This is tough because there are interesting storylines for every game.

For AU, UGA and Bama at home would be the most anticipated if we are still in the hunt for the West like 2013. These will still be huge, even if a 2 or 3 loss Auburn is relegated to spoiling the season for UGA and/or Bama.

Reasons to anticipate the other games...

Louisville (1st game. In ATL. Petrino. Could set the tone for the season.)
@LSU (1st SEC game that could set the tone for conference play. AU hasn't won in Red Stick since 1999.)
State (Credit Mullen for making this game more than it is. They always play us tough. Revenge game.)
@UK (Thursday night. I'm sure they'll be ready to play.)
@Ark and @A&M (Both of these could derail AU's season. Just look at what A&M did to Auburn's season last year. Ark has done this several times in the past.)
Ole Miss (Home game that Auburn might overlook. Ole Miss wants revenge, I'm sure.)


Cupcakes... all are about equal, for different reasons.

Jax St (in state school)
San Jose St (Homecoming. We just played last year.)
Idaho (Strange match up. I think we've only played once before.)
