I know bama wins by 35+ because after the first 2 series of Dyer running for 1-3 Yards every first down, followed by a shitty out route to mccaleb followed by a 3rd down quick throw away to the sidelines or sack...well it just gets pretty damn predictable...to think that it'll change in a week is naive..

It will be ugly. Early and often. Bama 45 AU 10
It hurts because it is true.

I have no doubt that the Tigers will play like the green bay packers. It's the Iron bowl!

If I were Coach for a day the whole game would be nothing but run up the middle.

I think Auburn fans picking a Bama blowout have lost their minds. Maybe I have the 2009 game planted firmly in my mind but an inferior Auburn team gave Alabama all they wanted and then some. I have a hard time believing Bama covers the spread although they are capable of doing so.

Question for Auburn fans. Is your offense as good this year as it was in 2009? It seemed like you had a pretty solid O line that year so maybe that's the biggest difference. I can see Auburn moving the ball well enough to keep them in the game.

The one thing that makes me feel somewhat better about this game is that we'll come into the game more determined than I can ever remember after last year's game. I think if the opportunity to pad the score DOES end up materializing then I can see us trying to pile the points on. This is our last chance to make an impression and we need the style points.

It is not playing as well as it did toward the end of 2009. Also, our run defense and LBs are worse and TR is a better runner than MI.

Auburn and Alabama would essentially have to play differently than each team has in almost every game this season for AU to have a chance.

Carolina plays Indy this weekend and doesn't need Cam, so Auburn has signed him to a one week contract for the Iron Bowl.

That would take care of the pay cut he had to take when he moved to the NFL.

If recognized? Probably 50/50. Most AU fans (and Bama fans) are above the kind of action that Updyke committed. That said, we all have our "Updykes" so I'm sure if he is recognized someone will at least attempt to gain retribution.

That POS isn't worth going to jail for. His community service should be to rake all the dead leaves in Auburn wearing a "Yes We Cam" t-shirt.

This.

I don't think he can go...wasn't he banned from stepping foot on AU's campus?

The DA Bama fans with the mocking tree shirts will be a bigger issue.

Wonder if these were the same ones yelling that Harvey doesn't represent the Bama fanbase?

For every UA fan that denounces his actions, there at least one that applauds him.

I am sitting here listening to a bama fan talk about how ridiculous it was for AU fans to pull for LSU against bama...and he went as far to say that he would pull for AU when they play other SEC teams


LIAR!!!!!
