Most years I'd like the opportunity to beat a good team, but I am of the opinion that we simply need the win and the ability to say we have gone 10-4, 8-5 and 10-3 on the recruiting trail. I don't care how easy the game is or how it is perceived...we need to win.

Yep. Getting 10 wins with the schedule we had to navigate is a huge win for the program.

10-3 is a giant leap from 9-4. I know it's only one game, but the perception is way different. For me it is anyway, with the expectations this team had going into the year. It was supposed to be a down year with unknowns at QB and OL. To pull 10 wins is huge

I want a winnable matchup we'd get the most credit for.

I don't want to play Memphis, not because they're not a good team, but because there is little upside to beating them and major downside to not beating them.

I'm fine with a game like Purdue last season if that's what's ahead, but given the choice between a Michigan/Minnesota, which I put at about the same level, I'm taking Michigan.

Reactions:

Auburn beats Michigan - "SEC over Big 10 yet again, Auburn finished strong considering that schedule"

Auburn beats Minnesota - "well, yeah."
