You didn't ask me about the numbers, but the total yardage, first downs, etc are almost the same... We had more passing yardage against FSU just because they put us in more passing situations... We basically just ran on y'all like all the other teams we played, save a couple..

Clemson's O was top 10 in points and passing yards.

They got their stats in the ACC.

They played very poorly VS South Carolina.

I'd imagine so since they had 6 turnovers; however, 3 years is a pattern, and you can't ignore 5 straight losses. Give South Carolina their due.
quote:

Did you miss their game VS Ohio St.

Ohio State did not have a good defense.
quote:

They beat:
25th ranked Maryland
3rd ranked Clemson
7th ranked Miami (who were undefeated before losing their star player)
20th ranked Duke

Maryland lost 4 other games.
Syracuse was a joke.
Miami got outplayed by Florida, North Carolina, and Wake Forest but won in the final moments. Miami couldn't handle Virginia Tech, Duke, or Louisville.

Florida State only defeated one FBS team that finished the season with fewer than 4 losses (Clemson). The same can be said for Alabama (LSU). Is that statistic supposed to be impressive?

Finally, my total reference was to how FSU made their halftime adjustments with a good NG and allowed Auburn just 10 points in the 2nd half. I guess AUs defense was good, because bama only scored 7 points in the second half. That came off a 99 yard pass.
Only an Auburn fool could take a discussion about Alabama's and FSU's defenses, and try to make it about Auburn's. Man, can you possibly be a bigger fool?

One common opponent is a poor sample size to jump to the conclusions you're making.

Yeah, and trying to compare defenses that play against a different quality of offense is a poor basis for the conclusion you've come to, so....

All top 25 teams when they played FSU. Duke almost knocked of a&m.

Are you seriously trying to say that FSU played as strong a schedule as any SEC team?

No.

All these teams that you mention...who did they succeed against?...other ACC teams.

You're right. Only the SEC is legit.

Miami lost 3 straight because they lost their star player and imploded.

So you're telling me that a quality team can lose ONE player and that can cause them to implode?..really?

Yeah I am. It didn't help that that time coincided with the toughest part of their schedule as well.

VS VT: 28 rushing yards

You bammers have to convince yourself that someone has figured Gus's Offense out. What you do not admit is Auburn did their damage for the most part with a one dimensional Offense. They did it when both bama and FSU knew what was coming, yet they still shoved it down their throats like nobody else. You know if AU gets just a little of their passing game going, you have no chance of stopping it. Neither FSU or bama looked like the great Defense you want us to believe when they played AUs gimmick Offense.

I watched both FSU and Bama play against Auburn. FSU had the better defense. Deal with it

And to the guys saying "they play in the ACC". Oklahoma plays in the Big 12, where defenses are supposedly terrible and they exposed your team for what it really was. A decent football team that played the weakest schedule in the SEC.

Did you even read the debate that was going on in the post that you linked to? We were discussing which team had the better defense, Alabama or FSU. You came barreling into the middle of it with some off-the-wall shite about AUBURN'S defense which had NOTHING to do with anything!
MAN!...give it a fricking break!

The OP was about if someone can figure out Auburn's HUNH Offense. It was steered to who had the better D (FSU or bama). The conclusion of the discussion is that neither team looked that great against Auburn, which answers the question to the original post.

Just spray your field down with a light mist before playing. Then at halftime you turn on the sprinklers for 5 minutes

It's not much of a debate... FSU gets the edge bc of the disparity in the secondaries... Bama's was a liability while FSUs was its strength. Both teams were strong in the front seven, with bama having the edge at LB, and FSU having the edge along the DL.

I don't see how anybody could question that.

bama's DB's were very suspect. bama's strength was the front 7 and Auburn ran it down their throats all night long. FSU's DL was stout. It was the best DL Auburn faced all year.

Let's see now.... "bama's DB's were very suspect"-and Auburn had 97 yards passing for the game.
"Auburn ran it down their throats all night long."-Auburn averaged 5.7 yds. per rush and Alabama averaged 6.2 yrds. per rush, so who ran it down whose throat?
You continue to prove your ignorance of the game with every post...good job!
Oh yeah...total yards: Auburn 393 yds. and Alabama 495 yds....AND Auburn had 449 yds of total offense against FSU compared to 393 against Alabama for those folks saying the FSU defense was better
If you Auburn fools would do a little checking before you ran your cocksuckers, you wouldn't look so fricking stupid...just saying.

Not even really close. FSUs D was significantly better. No reasonable person could argue otherwise.
