Rhino5: most Auburn fans are semi intelligent so you must be the village idiot. First , Syracuse would be the best team in the overrated Big 10. Last I checked, Clemson curb stomped the Big 10 rep OSU 35-0 last year in the semi so if you really think Wisconsin is better than Clemson, you truly don't know shite about college football.

BTW, last I saw Auburn, your QB was getting sacked 11 times by Clemsons DL. Have Nice night



Hopefully, we'll get the rematch. Be happy you got us early, your team looks soft now. Really soft.

Nice 17-14 lead against 3 win FSU with 3:05 in the 4th QTR. Good thing their starting QB went out game 1 against Bama or you guys might not have gotten the win due to their Frosh replacements mistakes.

You do realize that without the spanking Syracuse gave you they had beaten Central Michigan, a horrible Pitt team and something called Central Connecticut right?

Pathetic loss. That's the worst loss of anyone in the top 15 much less top 4.

We'll keep making you look good, but it wont matter after South Carolina knocks you out of the playoffs in a couple of weeks.

The LSU game was GUS' fault. We'll take it. KJ was hobbled though and still did ok the 1st half with over 120+ yards. 

However, the Clemson game everyone seems to forget we were missing KJ due to injury, Pettway was already hurt, he had been hurt and they made it worse by forcing him to play through it. It was Also Stidham's 2nd game in 2 years. He was rusty. 

SO if we can ignore Clemson's loss due to one issue, surely we can ignore ours due to several :)


LSU outcoached and outplayed AU and overcame AU's 20 point lead.

Lacking more than one or two good RBs is a weakness.

CU vs AU was the 2nd CFB game ever for Clemson's QB.

Most teams will suffer a drop off if their starting QB is out.

Lacking more than 6 good LB's apparently is too lol. Clemson is soft now. Bama will see how soft they actually are when they play a real team too in a couple of weeks. Mississippi State made you look avg, imagine what we're gonna do LOL. Enjoy your last win of the season against Mercer.

Also fwiw Bryant was in the system for 3 years at Clemson. Stidham was rocking it out as a scout team QB for a high school.

LSU didn't outplay Auburn. Gus' took his foot off the gas and LSU got all the momentum while he tried to run the game out when we got up big. He apparently learned his lesson by hanging 40 on Georgia and telling the team to stop passing with 37 seconds left in the game.

Regarding your other edit. Bryant hasn't missed a damn game and when he went out against Syracuse they were down 17-14. Its a weak puss excuse.

Georgia no longer has the better win loss resume right now. Beat an over rated Notre dame team, run out by auburn.


"Right now" isn't the question. It's a "if Auburn beats Bama but UGA beats Auburn in the SECCG". Let's say Bama falls only to 4 after a loss to Auburn which could happen if it's close. After UGA beats AU (who after beating Bama is absolutely top 3), they will jump into the top 4 and Bama falls out. Why? Because at that point, UGA's only loss will be against a top 4 team, and was redeemed by coming back and beating them when given the opportunity. In this scenario, Bama, Who will be compared to UGA by the committee, would have faced that same opponent a week earlier, and lost in their only opportunity...plus, Bama's resume will include games against only 3 ranked teams with LSU and MSU Not being ranked very high, and AU being a loss.

Sorry but no way. Bama needs to win out to get to the playoff....as does AU and UGA

Yeah, our 2nd & 3rd string LBs need to up their game. Looking forward to the IB -- always a great rivalry game.

I watched both games. LSU outcoached and outplayed AU. AU outcoached and outplayed UGA.

Bryant's DT abilities to run and to evade pass rushers are key in Clemson's offense. From the onset of the game he was severely hobbled by an ankle injury. There were posters blasting Dabo for even trotting him out there. He was a sitting duck and ended up getting literally knocked out and concussed because of it.

"Stidham was rusty" is more of a "weak puss" excuse. AU's OL got manhandled by CU's D-front.

Auburn is firing on all cylinders lately, and despite TWO losses, is now ranked #6 and in control of its destiny. It's also helping AU's ranking that the CFP Committee thinks highly of Clemson, instead of thinking they're "soft" and overrated like you do.

You are correct. Because KB relies heavily on his ability to run, he should have only used him in sn emergency situation....Our backup QB, Hunter Johnson, is a better passer and should have got the first team reps that week.

KB was indeed a sitting duck and Dabo decision to play him contributed to his getting knocked out.

I don’t think Bama is close to as safe as people think. If they lose to auburn they have a very light resume at year end. Wins over barely top 25 LSU and MSU. That I’ll probably be the weakest of the contenders for that spot.

I don't get the shock about Clemson being number 2. They were number 4 last week and #1 and #3 lost. What did you think was going to happen. Now if your argument is that they shouldn't have been #4 last week then that's a horse of a different color.

Auburn is not suddenly the greatest team in history just because they put a beating on Georgia.

By the way, you've got more excuses for why Auburn continues to lose big games than anyone I've ever seen. LSU won the game. Clemson won the game. Move on, man. You seem to be one of those guys that thinks the entire season is based on the last game played.

So much fail in your post. You sound like a defensive bitch.

Syracuse would be the best team in the overrated Big 10

Syracuse is last in their division and lost to Middle Tennessee, they also had 64 points scored on them by fricking Wake Forest.

Sad, resorting to last year with Deshaun Watson

Auburn has to go through the gauntlet to make the playoffs, but I'd love a rematch against Clemson. You'd see much more than and injured Pettway up the middle. Sadly, USC will likely beat you in 2 weeks. Just keep it respectable so our week 2 loss against Clemson looks like a we loss to a decent team.

Here is Clemson

Kent state
Auburn. Good Winston home But Lsu best then on road
Louisville
Boston college
Virginia Tech. Not as good a team as given credit for. Miami looked better against them
Wake forest
Syracuse. LOSS
Georgia tech. Lost to Tennessee
NC State. Notre Dame looked considerably better than clemson did
Florida State.

It really isn’t that great a resume as it’s made out to be. To be honest Notre Dame has looked better against similar teams they played. I just don’t see how they are number two

Oklahoma and Miami definitely have a gripe

To be honest Wisconsin and Alabama doesn’t have a resume like clemson but they have a shite ton of injuries and they beat all the Syracuse like teams on their schedule. Handily. I can’t belev the break Clemson got for an injury

I just don’t get it

You don't seem to mind that AUs TWO losses are ignored.

AU's beatdown of UGA boosted AU to #6, but also boosted Clemson's strength of record.

So, actually your post is ridiculous.

I didn't say they shouldn't be in the top 4, just not the #2 team. Bama, Oklahoma, Miami, Clemson. The scary thing about Oklahoma is how many points they're scoring.

Auburn is getting credit for a close Non-conference loss to Clemson in the road. Best non-conference loss . I see this happening
1) Clemson (12-1)
2) Auburn (11-2)
3) Miami (12-1)
4) Bama (11-1)
Clemson and Bama in the Sugar Bowl.

How? Oklahoma loses to TCU, Wiskie to Michigan or OSU

Yeah they're lurking. They'll likely win out as conference champions. If Oklahoma wins out then Ohio st has a strong case.

They're not counting the loss for Clemson because Kelly was injured is the narrative that keeps getting played which is fine but is Alabama going to get the same gimme considering they literally lost 3 starting LB for the season and 4th rotational LB in certain packages should they drop a game.
