I knew that dude was a moron but goddamn our defense was bad that year


It was an above average Big 12 Defense, however. I can see why he would be confused.

Auburn had the #1 run D in the SEC that year. But the 2nd worse passing D



Going into the title game, Auburn had 10 interceptions. Neiko, BABY! Auburn gave up a passing touchdown to Spencer Ware.

Well once you determine that the officials will allow you to hit someone on a play that was never live with impunity. You get pretty fired up.

I still can't wrap my head around the fact Neiko is on an NFL roster.

He's like the homeless, destitute, creeper on the bus man's Jerraud Powers. That makes me sad.

If you had 2010 Auburn's defense and 2012 Texas A&M's offense you are mentioned in the same breath as 95 Nebraska and 2001 Miami.


You are joking right? Auburn's defense sucked in 2010. Now if said Bama's 2011 defense and TAMU's 2012 Offense you'd have the greatest team ever.

AU is at least mentioned in the same sentence with Neb & da U... i.e. Crystal winners

Actually any team that was named number 1 in the coach's poll since '51 has a crystal ball

A&M played an easier schedule than 2010 Auburn, but we also destroyed almost everyone we played. In 2010 Auburn won five games which were blowouts (and I'm defining a blowout as a game in which the game was no longer in doubt whatsoever entering the 4th quarter). A&M won eight such games, six of which were over by HALFTIME.

So while A&M did play an easier schedule, it's not like those bad/average teams were playing us close. We slaughtered almost everyone.

Powers has talent though. Outside of his freshman season, I never saw that from Neiko.


Bad coaching didn't help either I feel.
