Kirby will run it up if given half a chance.

Contain Nix or the bigger QB and UGA wins, hands down. UGA does NOT have an elite running game, but if they can come close to the production they had against Arky, and mix in the pass (probably going to take a bit more than against Arky), they'll be fine.

I know the transitive property is debunked but I think Arkansas is a better team than Auburn this year, and look what we did to them.

Nix is going to pull that Archie Manning shite and get his leg broken.

Don't want him to get hurt, but I hope we whoop Bo's arse so hard that we make him cry on the sidelines

We'd never try to hurt him, but I think he's frantic enough to get himself hurt.

I don't think there's anyway they can get more than 10 on the Dawgs unless multiple pick 6's are thrown.

I'm going to guess Dawgs 31-6

I still hate that guy.

In regards to Nix, Adam Anderson will be spying on him all day. He ain’t going anywhere.

I had concerns that Arkansas was going to test us with their ability to run, especially with their QB. Instead, they were completely shut down.

I'm not expecting Nix to be able to evade our defensive pursuit if Jefferson wasn't able to. Our defense will give our offense enough time to score points.

I think Auburn plays Dawgs close, and even scores 10-17 points but Dawgs depth will be too much in second half and pulls away 31-17. Look for turnovers and special teams to be big in this game. Camarta and defense and running will win this game.


Dawgs - 30
Auburn - 3

This may be Munson Syndrome but I have more concern about this game than any we've played so far. Our defense should eliminate my concerns but still, it's a 4-1 Auburn team in their stadium.

Looked at NCAA stats. We're #1 in Total Defense, Scoring Defense, and Passing Efficiency Defense. We're in the top five in every other defensive category.

I noticed that Auburn is 8th nationally in Rushing Defense. Some of their fans have commented that our running game is "okay" but not as good as it was in the past. Is this the angle for Auburn - load up front and take the position that we have to beat them through the air?

Of course, no game plan is going to work against Georgia if the opponent can't manage to score. Still, the Auburn crowd seems to have a lot of faith in Nix being able to cause problems for us with his ability to improvise.

When Arkansas beat both Texas and TAMU in convincing fashion, they proved to be a very good football team. Top 10? Eh. But solid.

That one made me a little nervous.

The way they were manhandled by us on both sides of the ball in every single aspect of the game gave me every bit of confidence I was lacking before, and I bet it gave our team some confidence too. Confidence can be dangerous if it isn't channeled properly. I don't doubt that Kirby has it channeled properly and Auburn is going to get embarrassed.

We will neutralize AU's running game. That will leave Bo Nix to turn most passes into broken plays, running helter-skelter with his hair-on-fire. It won't work against our fast defense.

Along with a healthy dose of "There are five fouls on the play- Holding, on the offense, number... uh.... all five of them. Half the distance to the goal, repeat 3rd down"

That crap defense of LSU's held Bigsby to 27 yards and Ga. State held him to 60. What do you think we'll do against that shite o-line of Auburn's?

Auburn’s OL is about to get loved tenderly. Just need Stetson to be responsible with the ball, which is always dicey.

If they score that many points it will be in garbage time. Their best weapons are their RBs and I don't think they will be able to run the ball on us. Nix goes crazy when pressured and that's what we do best.

It's just a horrible, horrible match up for Auburn.
