My disagreement is with so many anointing Auburn as back to true top dog status.


Not true top dog status. That probably still goes to Bama this preseason.

It sure as hell doesn't go to LSU who will be scrounging somewhere around the 3rd to 5th dog status in the SECW.

Meant the first 2 games of 2011, Utah St. and Miss. St. , don't know why I put down Northwestern. Nevertheless Auburn went 8-5 and won the first 2 games that the should have lost. After guving up 25 ppints a game the previous season. Thw similarities are scarty. Auburn ia a chump school that got lucky twice but will lose at leadt 5 games next year.



There is nothing that is similar between the 2011 vs 2014 team:

On Offense the 2011 team had 1 returning starter on the OL vs 2014 where all but one returns.
In 2011 AU had one returning WR with any experience vs 2014 all the WRs return.
In 2011 the starting QB was Barrett Trotter vs 2014 where Gus will have a returning Stating QB for the first time in his AU Career.

On Defense the 2011 had to replace Fairley and Clayton vs 2014 where everyone returns except Ford.
In 2011 they had to replace starter Bynes and Stephens with Jake Holland vs 2014 replacing Jake Holland with anyone.
In 2011 the secondary consisted of players that where starting for the first time vs 2014 returning a secondary almost intact plus returning injured players.
In 2011 the DC was Roof vs 2014 the second year of Ellis Johnson.

If you think the similarities are scary and Auburn will have a similar record of the 2011 team, I suggest you stay away from Vegas

Don't forget all the illegal picks


When Bama does them, the SEC officials choose to call them "rubs".

Find a rule in the rule book that outlaws rubs... I DARE YOU.

I've got Alabama at 10-2 as well. Assuming the defense is back to normal and the running game helps the new QB along. Talent alone should get Alabama to 9-3.

If Auburn is so great, then they wouldn't have needed to tie the game and take the lead within the final minute of the game on two ridiculous plays. Auburn executed better than Alabama both times but had nothing to do with Alabama's mistakes.


That big ol' NT of y'alls that was laying on the ground sucking wind while the trainers "checked his knee" had nothing to do with Auburn, did it? And a defense sucking wind never makes mistakes or lacks attention to detail, do they?

We are thin at NT. They all are sucking wind.

They also could have won the national championship! Sometimes you have to be good to be lucky. Auburn was good. Give them credit. They also could have beaten LSU early in the season if they get the call on the onsides kick. They played a great BCS title game as well. Tiger fans everywhere respect the War Eagles!

Meh.....paper Tigers. Auburn loses to both Bama and LSU next season guaranteed while dropping another 2 that they should have in 2013.

I tend to think the West is between Alabama, Auburn, and LSU next year. Among the three, none of them have the advantage schedule wise. Should be a fun year.

AU will have a much better team and the schedule is backended, so early in the season they can work on the passing game. First 5 games:

Aug. 30–Arkansas at Auburn
Sept. 6–San Jose State at Auburn
Sept. 20–Auburn at Kansas State
Sept. 27–Louisiana Tech at Auburn
Oct. 4–LSU at Auburn

last offseason you said I flamed too much. So am I trolling or getting trolled? You tell me. In the meantime remember that we are going to win in Vaught Hemingway west next year

I don't remember that.

So you're saying you're a consistent flamer? Interesting.
