Spring Practice Begins Today!

The battle between Fields and Fromm will be fun to watch!

Already some glowing reviews on Fields:

From the AJC:

Nauta - "He's got a cannon," "He's a big physical kid...He's a really good kid too. I like the way he acts and his demeanor. He doesn't get too big of a head. He's very level-headed. And coming in to a place like this that's what you've got to be."

Godwin - "In 7-on-7, he's been out there throwing the ball, knowing the checks and everything. He's carrying himself very well."

Knock on wood and all of that stuff, but I don't see a regular season game that we should lose.

I was a bit concerned about LSU, but they lost their QB, RB and complete secondary and D'ends.

This year could be a similar run to last year, IMO.

However, I do want to play Bama in the SECG and go ahead and get that game out of the way.

I Honestly think both us and bama will go 12-0, I just don't see a team on either schedule that's gonna be better than either.

I suppose we're gonna have to beat them eventually if we want to take the next step, but it would be nice not to have to play them in that setting. My biggest concern is that by all accounts, on paper at least, they should be even better htan last year and we should be a tick worse. Would take a herculean effort to beat them if both teams are healthy in that game.

With that said, if that is how things play out and we beat them to knock them out of the playoffs, I don't see any team in the field that would beat us.

If this scenario plays out, and we do meet Alabama in the SEC Championship game, and lose, we might get a second chance in the Playoffs. Pure speculation, of course.

It's possible, but I don't really see it. Bama had a few things go their way last year to get in:

-although they didn't win their division, the division winner got blown out
-they were one of the "best teams" when healthy which the committee looks at
-but most importantly of all, the only team they were contending with for the 4th spot had 1 more loss, one of which was AWFUL and inexcusable
-they have bama clout

If our scenario plays out and we're a 12-1 non conference winner, bama obviously goes. The ACC champ (almost surely clemson) is a lock. The big 12 and big 10 champs will have a great case. It woudl likely take a scenario like last year where one of the conference champs has more losses than us, and a bad one at that.

We will be SEC East Champs and playing NY6 next year.

Then we will be National Champs from 2019 until at least 2026.

I love the way you think!!!!!

Funny you mentioned Roquan Smith, I work with a unbelievably obnoxious die-hard Auburn fan and he says he's the best defensive player he has seen on any team.

You see the guns on Holyfield? The caption underneath that photo was hilarious.

Scott Sinclair deserves a raise! Netori Johnson's belly is gone, and Isaiah Wilson looks like a machine. Not to mention Holyfield is going to hurt some defenders this season
