    Reading the board it seems like most of the posters here have bought into the typical Auburn **** talk. Too much respect around here for these guys. What have you seen to make you think this will be a nail biter of a game? This is a team who aint played anybody yet that would slap them back in the mouth. That's what happened last year when they opened with USC. If the Trojans can go to JH and spank what was a more talented AU team, surely the Tigers can..................and will.
    AU takes the crown when it comes to hyping themselves, I aint buying. The only advantage they have that they did'nt have last year is homefield, which may allow them to close the gap in last years 31-7 score, but only by a few points.

    Well they've outscored their opponents 62-0 in their 1st 2 games compared to getting beat 40-3 in their 1st 2 games last year.

    but....................................did anybody think they would'nt outscore them that way? A month ago on this board, everybody said they would hang 70 or 80 points and then be over here like worldbeaters.
    So what has changed, why all the nervousness? :) :) :) :) :) :) :)

    Maybe I'm wrong, but it seems to me MSU scored 14 on them.

    31-0 + 43-14 = 74-14

    Coulda said the same exact thing about LSU going into the first Georgia game last season.

    One reason why I look forward to Russell playing in this game is that secondary needs to be tested deep. Tubby's gonna dare Saban to do it, so I say let's oblige them. This could be the grand coming out party for the young WRs, not to forget a healthy Skylar Green.
