Next up for our Tigers - Auburn on the road. How do we think the game will go? My feeling is LSU can and will win this game. Auburn does not look good at all and their coach is on the verge of being fired. That said, it is Auburn, and there have been so many crazy games with them over the years...
This game is always the toughest to predict. I usually have a feeling when we are going to lose to a team like Arkansas or Ole Miss, but I never have a good gauge on the Auburn game. I think we win, but I expect it to be tough. Probably means we win in a blow out.
While I will be pulling for the Tigers(LSU of course) and believe they will win it's hard for me to say I hate Auburn with my dad being a grad of Alabama Polytechnic Institute. He did however always pull for LSU when they played Auburn! Now mention the Gators and that's a different story! I hate them more than the f%$#ing Tide!!
We don't need to overlook Auburn because this team is out to save their coach's job and shut up all the naysayers, which makes for a dangerous combination. I think we will beat Auburn, if we come in focused and with the mindset of improving every game. The reality is we're not good enough to overlook anyone, especially on the road against an SEC team on national television.
Part of me says that since that Auburn struggled against Mizzou that as long as the team is prepared it should be a W. The other part of me says that the is Auburn and anything can happen. I still don’t think the offense has fully gelled Into a cohesive unit for 4 quarters against a SEC caliber opponent.
Well, stats can be deceiving. We've played well lately, but to say we're equal to Georgia is a big stretch. At the end of the season, if we're still head-to-head on the stats, I'll believe it. I just hope we continue improving each game and build confidence because we have a beast of an SEC schedule ahead!
