    Auburn has 800+ yards to only 5 for Tennessee after the first half.

    Unfortunately, they let them get an easy score with a special teams goof and had a silly turnover right before the half. Score should be 35-0. Instead it's 21-7. Actually this game reminds me of the Sugar Bowl from last year.

    USC struggles against a not so great UCLA team.

    Auburn needs to finish the deal and try to get to #2 in both AP and Coaches poll.

    Love CBS stating that USC has been "given a pass" to being #1. Way to have some balls.

    800+ yards eh...that is domination.

    Yea, Tim Brando brought it up and Vern and his partner agreed with him. Said it was because USC was 'left out' last year, and they were determined to not let it happen again. Can't disagree with that - I'm all for NO POLLS whatsoever until Oct. 1

    LMFAO

    I disagree, Auburn is beating up on a tomato can. They get severely spanked by OU & SC. That would'nt be close :) :) :) :) :)

    Certainly UCLA is no great team but neither is Tenn.

    Man CBS letting the BCS have it.

    They just talked about Pitt being in a BCS bowl game and scoffed at it.

    Tenn. is not great, but I do think they'd beat UCLA.

    You got it all wrong. Auburn has like 1400 yards and Tennessee like -300.

    NO POLLS til Oct 1 is definitely a good thing.

    But if they had done it this year, would the AP/Coaches have done the right thing and put USC between 3rd and 5th ranked? They hadn't played Cal by then.
