One season did all of that for them, though. They lack the consistency of being a top 10 program year in and year out of the other teams you mentioned.

Bama 4 yr record: 12-2, 14-0, 10-3, 11-1 (47-6)
LSU 4 yr record: 8-5, 9-4, 11-2, 13-0 (41-11)
UF 4 yr record: 13-1, 13-1, 8-5, 6-6 (38-13)
AU 4 yr record: 5-7, 8-5, 14-0, 7-5 (34-17)

AU is the only of those teams to have 5+ loses in 3 of the last 4 seasons. Again, they are a very good program and certainly in the "big 6", but they aren't on LSU or Bama's level of consistency. That was my point.

(chose 4 yr record b/c that reflect performance of those still on the roster)


I love the timing game. Never mind that national title last year...but make sure to start after 2004.

This falls into the who gives a frick, bama and lsu are certainly the cream of the crop right now...at this very moment...and next year you coudl probably say bama doesnt' belong in the same category with LSU and then spin it another way.

Your back handed compliments are trite and tiresome. We get it, auburn shouldn't be mentioned with bama. Moving right along.

As for states schedule...shoudl favor well for them until the end. Not getting into the 2010 pissing match where state puts all the focus on auburn game and we make snide remarkes reminding them that it's just another game for us...gotta have something for the offseason.

No, that isn't why and that reasoning doesn't reflect a college program. You did it because 2003-2007 reflects poorly on Bama and pretty good on AU. In other words, the last 4 years ignore Bama's rebuilding/transition years while including AU's. Auburn has been as consistently a top program as Bama over the last 10, 20 or 30 years. If you go all time, AU isn't in Bama's league or if you reduce it to just the last 4 years, the same can be said.

Look, I expected you (unlike piggy) to give me the benefit of the doubt. I was responding to someone who said AU is right there with LSU & Bama based on recent recruiting. He set the timeframe by his discussion of AU's recruiting success recently.

I'll not dispute that Bama didn't belong in AU's category from 2003 - 2007. You guys went 4-0 against us during that time and had a substantially better overall record. That said, from 2008 - 20011 Bama is 3-1 against AU and two of those games have been really lopsided. During that time AU has lost 5+ games in 3 of 4 years (similar to Bama in the 2003-2007 period when we didn't belong in AU's category).

Cut me a bit of slack here, bruh. It is perfectly rational for me to have the opinion that we need to see more of Chizik before we can determine if 2010 was a reflection of the type of success we can expect from AU, or if the 8-5 records that bookend that season are a reflection. It is ok to have differing opinions and those opinions NOT be taken (or intended) as a flame.

I don't disagree with your analysis in the time frames listed, I just questioned the reasoning of the time frame picked. Using only the last 4 years, AU isn't in LSU or Bama's category, but using the last 10 years and beyond up to 30 years or so, AU and UF both belong. That is all I was saying. Not a personal attack bro.

I don't disagree at all, that's why I said:

AU is a very good program. They are without question a "big 6" SEC school. However, over the last 5 years Bama, LSU, and UF have been the "Big 3". AU is not on that level, bruh.


earlier in the thread before using the data (read: STATS) to back it up.

Auburn game decides whether we start 7-0 or not



I'd say the chalk would be 5-2 with 4 straight losses staring State in the face.

6-6 give or take a game.

Why are all of you assuming Texas A&M in Starkville is a given loss?



You are confusing "likely" loss with a "given" loss.

Sure, it's possible MSU could beat A&M. And, it's possible that Ole Miss beats MSU. It's extremely likely that MSU ends up 1-1 from these two games.

13-0. Then the world will end before State gets to play in the BCSNCG.
