Those players deserve the credit of being one of the best teams in the nation,


A friend of mine was sitting next to Jason Campbell and some of the other 2004 players in Glendale this past January and got some pics with them. I often wonder what they were thinking watching the game.

Got a new computer and had no clue what my password was for TD. Finally figured it out

Love getting out on the boat (cocktail cove or lake blue ride) but don't get on any forums. "flyAU" is a pretty normal tagline for Auburn Aviation, so I wouldn't be surprised if someone saw what an excellent poster I am and decided to use it in the boating forum world.

There was a FlyAU on a boating forum with a bunch of info in regards to the FL Keys and I seem to recall that you go there. Oh well.

We need to get a Lake Lanier boating get together, Lanier, NGwinett and whoever else is in ATL

Me? I say no. Leave it vacant. We would have arse raped OU and the USC game would have been a good one. Our defense was much better than most think


If they leave it vacant? Fine. Honey badger don't give a shite.

But if an organization like the AP or FWAA or the Coaches Poll awarded it (not that they will, I highly doubt it)? Why would you NOT "recognize" it?

Yep head down there a lot. But I find too many forums can be bad for your health.

I think it hurts AU's case for it that they played USC in 2002 & 2003 and lost both times (one of them, if I recall, was a shutout). Both teams (au & usc) returned tons of key players so I would imagine many voters felt they had seen the AU & USC matchup and already believed USC to be the better team based on the previous two years. Just my opinion.

Agreed, to tell the truth as confident as I was in our 04 team, i was scared shitless to have to play USC again. The past two years held bad memories for me. That being said, I would rather have played and lost rather than not play for it at all.

Key difference between 03' and 04', was the O cordinator position. Hugh Nall was horrid

I have stated on this board that I have ALWAYS recognized AU as the "champs" for that year.



Until a SEC team loses in a BCS CG, then I will ALWAYS take an undefeated one.


i do NOT think the BCS should "award" it. Just leave it vacant. But, I have always maintained that AU was the "champions".

Nall was horrible. I cant disagree with you. There is a reason he remained on staff though, but now we're getting back to my "not spotless" post.

I think you have to be consistent and not situational on this issue. I am totally consistent; all wins happen on the field period. USC is the 2004 National Champ (btw I don't like USC). But they are the champ.

That is very controversial! No one agrees with you!

(just don't go back and read the thread to prove me wrong)

I won't, and it's an asinine arguement anyway. They don't DESERVE the title because they didn't play in the NCG.
