3 SECWC
2 SECC
2 NC Appearances
1 NC
4 NY6 Bowls
4 victories against #1 ranked Team

All in the last 10 years. How does that compare to MSU?

Exactly. They think they are Bama but really they are just Miss. State.

Auburn won’t lose more than 3 regular season games.

They are as likely to go 4-8 as they are 10-2
AU has finished with a winning percentage of .333 or lower (the equivalent of a 4-8 season) exactly 3 times in the last 66 seasons, a likelihood of 4.5% over that stretch.

So I'm guessing that is highly more likely that we go 10-2 or better (which we've accomplished 10 times since 1982) than we go 4-8 or worse in 2019.

That said, we're probably going 8-4 again.

Except that we actually beat Bama at least 3 or 4 times every decade.

Y'all have beaten them 7 times since the Eisenhower adminstration. That includes a stretch where you went 1-37 against them (if you're keeping score at home, that's a winning percentage of roughly .026)

No, more like the majority of the time when the game is usually over by halftime, and Auburn is playing their backups in the second half.



Let's revisit this again:

If you have to bring up all time history, it's because you're a loser.

State kicked that arse by two touchdowns and was playing backups in the second half last year. A team that couldn't get out of it's own way offensively gashed your ballyhooed defense. That's the most relevant piece of information here.

To be fair they average like 8.6 wins over the last 10 years.

We may win 8 games, we may win 12 but that's funny.

I never in my life thought I'd see a Steele coached defense completely fail to make defensive adjustments after Fitzgerald continue to run up the gut over and over on them. Not one of those players adjusted and neither did Steele.

It was a classic game where the team favored came out very flat and MSU was fighting to hold on to their season, but OLD MO was shifting when Boobee fumbled before scoring on that 42 yard run...if he holds on to that 13-16 and who knows. You could tell the D had that look of "what is wrong with our O"...we'd see it again against UTk.

Friendly reminder that Auburn's average margin of victory over Miss State this decade is 15.4 points.

Auburn has won 2 of the last 3 (since recent history is all that matters) with a margin of victory of 31.5 points. Even with the loss to Miss State last year, Auburn has outscored Miss State 96-47 over those 3 games.
Let's continue this trend

They will either go 7-5 or 11-1... it’s just how it works... it seems...

Since 2000 Auburn avgs just over 8 1/2 wins per season, but has 5 season of 10+ wins.

Usually going 2-3 seasons between double digit seasons... they won 10 in 2017... so my guess is probably 8-4

@ Texas A&M - L

Auburn hasn’t lost in College Station since TAMU joined the SEC.

Besides, isn’t A&M supposed to have lost a lot of defense? I thought I read that.

I ask aGAIN: what was the most recent result? That's all that matters here. I could be talking trash to KY fans about how we've won 8 out of 9 against them, but it would make me look stupid because they won last year. That's how you look right now.

You just need to shut up and take your medicine. You need to be healthy so you don't miss the Gus Bus next month.

Your entire argument is "WE WON LAST YEAR LOL"
